Emotion in an active inference model of human driving
Julian F. Schumann, Johan Engström, Ran Wei +3
Active inference has emerged as a principled framework for modeling adaptive behavior by balancing goal-directed action with uncertainty reduction. It has been successfully applied…
Resolving space-sharing conflicts in road user interactions through uncertainty reduction: An active inference-based computational model
Julian F. Schumann, Johan Engström, Ran Wei +3
Understanding how road users resolve space-sharing conflicts is important both for traffic safety and the safe deployment of autonomous vehicles. While existing models have capture…
The Field of Safe Motion: Operationalizing Affordances in the Field of Safe Travel Using Reachability Analysis
Leif Johnson, Trent Victor, Johan Engström
We present the Field of Safe Motion (FSM), a quantitative safety model for determining whether a driver maintains a collision-free escape route, or "out," at any given moment by ac…
Active inference as a unified model of collision avoidance behavior in human drivers
Julian F. Schumann, Johan Engström, Leif Johnson +4
Collision avoidance -- involving a rapid threat detection and quick execution of the appropriate evasive maneuver -- is a critical aspect of driving. However, existing models of hu…
