A method for executing a safety-relevant function of a vehicle in a current driving situation depending on input data evaluable by a control system comprising a plurality evaluation units trained using training data configured to at least to a predefined confidence level for a specific driving situation, the method comprising:
- detecting classification data of the input data;
- detecting the current driving situation depending on the classification data;
- determining a prioritized evaluation unit of the plurality of evaluation units that is trained for a specific driving situation that exhibits a correspondence with the current driving situation;
- evaluating the input data via the prioritized evaluation unit;
- and
- executing the safety-relevant function depending on the evaluation of the input data via the prioritized evaluation unit.
A vehicle system, comprising:
- a function unit for executing a safety-relevant function of the vehicle in a current driving situation;
- and
- a control system comprising a plurality of evaluation units for evaluating input data for the safety-relevant function, wherein the evaluation units are trained using training data configured at least to a predefined confidence level for a specific driving situation, wherein the function unit and the control system are configured to
- detect classification data of the input data;
- detect the current driving situation depending on the classification data;
- determine a prioritized evaluation unit of the plurality of evaluation units that is trained for a specific driving situation that exhibits a correspondence with the current driving situation;
- evaluate the input data via the prioritized evaluation unit;
- and
- execute the safety-relevant function depending on the evaluation of the input data via the prioritized evaluation unit.
A computer program product comprising non-transitory program instructions which, when the program instructions are executed by an electronic computing device for executing a safety-relevant function of a vehicle in a current driving situation depending on input data evaluable by a control system comprising a plurality evaluation units trained using training data configured to at least to a predefined confidence level for a specific driving situation, cause the electronic computing device to:
- detect classification data of the input data;
- detect the current driving situation depending on the classification data;
- determine a prioritized evaluation unit of the plurality of evaluation units that is trained for a specific driving situation that exhibits a correspondence with the current driving situation;
- evaluate the input data via the prioritized evaluation unit;
- and
- execute the safety-relevant function depending on the evaluation of the input data via the prioritized evaluation unit.
