Abstract
A data analysis apparatus includes: a vehicle data communicator that obtains vehicle data indicating a vehicle status of a first vehicle; a external data communicator that obtains external data indicating external circumstances of the first vehicle from at least one of a second vehicle, which is in an area where the first vehicle is running and is different from the first vehicle, and a traffic infrastructure system; a processor; and a memory including at least one set of instructions. By executing the at least one set of instructions, the processor performs: a first determination as to whether there is an inconsistency between the vehicle status of the first vehicle indicated and the external circumstances, and outputs a result of the first determination regarding the first vehicle.
Claims6
A data analysis apparatus, comprising:
- a vehicle data communicator that obtains vehicle data indicating a vehicle status of each of a plurality of first vehicles from each of the plurality of first vehicles;
- an external data communicator that obtains external data indicating an external circumstance of each of the plurality of first vehicles from at least one of a second vehicle and a traffic infrastructure system, the second vehicle being in an area where each of the plurality of first vehicles is running, the second vehicle being different from the plurality of first vehicles;
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory memory including at least one set of instructions that, when executed by the processor causes the processor to perform operations including:
- performing a first determination as to whether there is an inconsistency between the vehicle status of one or more of the plurality of first vehicles and the external circumstance;
- and outputting a result of the first determination regarding the one or more of the plurality of first vehicles, wherein
- the processor performs the first determination on the vehicle data obtained from each of the plurality of first vehicles, and outputs results of the first determination, and
- the operations further include:
- performing a second determination as to whether or not a number of one or more results each indicating that there is the inconsistency is at or higher than a predetermined reference number, the one or more results being included in the results of the first determinations for the plurality of first vehicles;
- and
- outputting (i) a result of the second determination indicating that the external data has an anomaly when the second determination is made that the number is at or higher than the predetermined reference number, and outputting (ii) a result of the second determination indicating that one or more first vehicles corresponding to the one or more results each indicating that there is the inconsistency among the plurality of first vehicles have an anomaly when the second determination is made that the number is less than the predetermined reference number.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium embodied with a program, the program causing, when executed by a computer, the computer to perform a method including:
- obtaining vehicle data indicating a vehicle status of each of a plurality of first vehicles from each of the plurality of first vehicles;
- obtaining external data indicating an external circumstance of each of the plurality of first vehicles from at least one of a second vehicle and a traffic infrastructure system in an area where each of the plurality of first vehicles is running, the second vehicle being different from the plurality of first vehicles;
- and
- performing a first determination as to whether there is an inconsistency between the vehicle status of one or more of the plurality of first vehicles and the external circumstance, and outputting a result of the first determination regarding the one or more of the plurality of first vehicles, wherein
- the first determination is performed on the vehicle data obtained from each of the plurality of first vehicles, and results of the first determination are output, and
- the method performed by the computer further includes:
- performing a second determination as to whether or not a number of one or more results each indicating that there is the inconsistency is at or higher than a predetermined reference number, the one or more results being included in the results of the first determinations for the plurality of first vehicles;
- and
- outputting (i) a result of the second determination indicating that the external data has an anomaly when the second determination is made that the number is at or higher than the predetermined reference number, and outputting (ii) a result of the second determination indicating that one or more first vehicles corresponding to the one or more results each indicating that there is the inconsistency among the plurality of first vehicles have an anomaly when the second determination is made that the number is less than the predetermined reference number.
