Abstract
Methods, devices and apparatuses pertaining to aberrant driver classification and reporting are described. A method may involve receiving a message from a user of a first vehicle, the message indicating an instance of aberrant driving of a second vehicle. The method may also involve determining that the instance has occurred using one or more classifiers. The method may further involve collecting information of the second vehicle and generating a warning message based on the information.
Claims11
A method, comprising:
- determining, by one or more processors, that an instance of aberrant driving of a second vehicle has occurred using one or more classifiers;
- receiving, by the one or more processors from one or more sensors of a first vehicle, information of the second vehicle obtained by the one or more sensors;
- and
- generating, by the one or more processors, a warning message that identifies the second vehicle based on the information received from the one or more sensors,
- wherein the determining that the instance has occurred using the one or more classifiers comprises:
- determining a risk parameter using the one or more classifiers, the risk parameter indicating a possibility that the instance of aberrant driving occurs within a predetermined window of time;
- determining that the instance occurs in an event that the risk parameter is greater than a predetermined value;
- and
- incrementally decreasing a value of the risk parameter over a period of time such that, after passage of a predetermined amount of time, the value of the risk parameter is zero.
