[0022] Embodiments of the present disclosure may involve user data, data acquisition and / or use, etc. All of these aspects comply with corresponding laws, regulations and related provisions. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the collection, acquisition, processing, processing, forwarding, use, etc. of all data are carried out on the premise that the user is aware and confirms. Accordingly, when implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, the types, usage scopes, usage scenarios, etc. of the data or information that may be involved should be informed to the user and the user's authorization should be obtained through appropriate means in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. The specific informing and / or authorization methods may vary according to the actual situation and application scenarios, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this regard.

[0023] For the solutions described in this specification and embodiments, if they involve personal information processing, they will be processed on the premise of having a legal basis (such as obtaining the consent of the personal information subject, or being necessary for performing a contract), and will only be processed within the specified or agreed scope. If a user refuses to process personal information other than the necessary information required for basic functions, it will not affect the user's use of basic functions.

[0024] As used herein, the term "vehicle" may include any type of land vehicle that carries people and / or objects and moves by an engine or human power, such as cars, bicycles, trucks, motorhomes, etc.

[0025] As discussed above, with the continuous development of social economy and vehicle technology, vehicles have become an essential transportation device in people's lives. In daily life, traffic lights play an important role in road traffic management, which can control traffic flow, reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents, and improve road traffic efficiency.

[0026] Since the red-light running behavior of some vehicles (such as bicycles) cannot be detected and thus cannot be controlled by traffic rules, the number of traffic accidents caused by these vehicles running red lights without permission has gradually increased, greatly affecting people's traffic safety. Traditionally, it often relies solely on the vehicle driver to manually judge whether this type of vehicle has committed a violation. The vehicle or the driver's terminal cannot timely remind the driver. It is expected that the driving behavior of various types of vehicles can be detected conveniently and quickly to ensure traffic safety.

[0027] In view of this, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for determining a driving behavior. The method includes: an in-vehicle device and / or a user device can obtain geographical location information of the geographical location where the transportation means is located, and provide the geographical location information to the server. The server can determine status information indicating the status of a target traffic light within at least a range of an area matching the geographical location based on reference information indicating at least the cycle information of the traffic light. The server can determine a driving behavior related to the transportation means according to the status information and the geographical location information, and send information indicating the driving behavior of the transportation means to the in-vehicle device and / or the user device, so that the in-vehicle device and / or the user device can make an indication component associated with the transportation means indicate the driving behavior in a predetermined manner based on the information. In this way, it is possible to determine whether there is an illegal driving behavior of the current transportation means based on the trajectory data of multiple traffic data, and in the case of an illegal driving behavior, an alarm is issued to the user, which helps to ensure traffic safety.

[0028] Example scenario

[0029] First, refer to Figure 1 , which schematically shows a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. As Figure 1 shown, the environment 100 may include a transportation means 101, a server 120, and a user device 130.

[0030] As Figure 1 shown, the transportation means 101 may include various types of vehicles. Hereinafter, the vehicle is used as an example to describe the transportation means 101. The vehicle may be, for example, a motor vehicle (for example, it may include a sedan, a taxi, a van, etc.) and a non-motor vehicle (for example, it may include a shared bicycle, a private bicycle, etc.). The present disclosure does not limit the specific type of the vehicle. An in-vehicle device 110 may be installed in the vehicle, which is an electronic device associated with the vehicle. In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 may be an electronic device installed in the vehicle that can control the vehicle, and it may be, for example, a car machine. In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 further includes at least one information presentation component, for example, it may include a display device (such as a display screen) and an audio device (such as a speaker), etc.

[0031] In some embodiments, a traffic travel application may be installed in the in-vehicle device 110, such as a taxi application, a navigation application, etc. Correspondingly, in some embodiments, a traffic travel application may also be installed in the user device 130. Both the in-vehicle device 110 and the user device 130 may include any computing system with computing capabilities, such as various computing devices / systems, terminal devices, server devices, etc.

[0032] In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 and the user device 130 can communicate with the server 120 respectively. Communication connections can be established between the server 120 and the in-vehicle device 110 and the user device 130 respectively. The communication connections can be established by wired or wireless means. The communication connections can include but are not limited to Bluetooth connections, mobile network connections, USB data cable connections, WiFi connections, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this regard. Alternatively or additionally, in some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 and the user device 120 can also communicate with each other.

[0033] The server 120 can, for example, be used to provide background services for traffic travel applications in the in-vehicle device 110 and the user device 130. The server 120 can be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content delivery networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. The server 120 can include, for example, a computing system / server, such as a mainframe, an edge computing node, a computing device in a cloud environment, and so on.

[0034] It should be understood that the structure and functions of the environment 100 are described only for exemplary purposes, without implying any limitation to the scope of the present disclosure.

[0035] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Example principle and interaction

[0037] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server 120 can include multiple servers. The server 120 can use a model to determine driving behavior. A positioning module (for example, including a GPS locator) can be installed in the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130. The in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 can obtain geographical location information (such as longitude and latitude) of the real-time location of the vehicle through this positioning module. In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 can also determine the movement direction, movement trajectory, etc. of the vehicle based on the geographical location information. For example, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 can obtain the longitude and latitude of the vehicle in real time and determine the driving direction and movement trajectory of the vehicle based on the change of the longitude and latitude of the vehicle.

[0038] The in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may provide the acquired data (which may at least include the geographical location information of the vehicle) to the server 120. Exemplarily, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may report the data to the server 120 via Bluetooth, long link / short link, etc.

[0039] Figure 2 A schematic diagram showing an example framework 200 for determining driving behavior according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 2 The device server 220, the transaction server 230, and the user server 240 in it may all be, for example, the servers included in the server 120.

[0040] The device server 220 may be used, for example, to link and communicate with the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 to obtain the geographical location information of the vehicle. In some embodiments, the device server 220 may also need to provide the acquired geographical location information to the model 210. It can be understood that the device server 220 may receive the geographical location information of multiple vehicles.

[0041] The model 210 may be, for example, a model implemented based on machine learning technology, and the present disclosure does not limit the specific model. The model 210 may, for example, determine the cycle information (such as the cycle duration) of traffic lights (such as traffic signals) within the area range matching the geographical location based on the geographical location information of the vehicle (that is, determine the traffic lights passed by the vehicle). For example, the model 210 may determine the cycle information of at least one traffic light (each traffic light has at least one vehicle passing by) passed by multiple vehicles based on the geographical location information of multiple vehicles.

[0042] In some embodiments, the model 210 may also determine the status of the traffic light at the current moment based on the current moment and the determined cycle information of the traffic light. The model 210 may, for example, generate a model output indicating the status of the traffic light at the current moment. The device server 220 may obtain the model output to determine the status of the traffic light at the current moment. The status of the traffic light may, for example, indicate whether the vehicle is allowed to pass at the current moment. Alternatively or additionally, in some embodiments, the model 210 may, for example, generate a model output indicating the cycle information of the traffic light. The device server 220 may obtain the model output to determine the cycle information of the traffic light. The device server 220 may then determine the status of the traffic light at the current moment based on the current moment and the cycle information of the traffic light. That is, the status of the traffic light may be determined by the model 210 or by the device server 220.

[0043] For each vehicle, the device server 220 can also be used, for example, to determine the driving behavior of the vehicle based on the geographical location information of the vehicle and the status of the target traffic lights within the area matching the geographical location. The driving behavior can indicate, for example, whether the vehicle has a violation behavior (such as running a red light). In some embodiments, the device server 220 can also send information indicating the driving behavior of the vehicle to the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 to prompt the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 to remind the user when the vehicle runs a red light. The in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 can issue an alarm through an indicating component (such as a display screen, a speaker, etc.). For example, an alarm can be issued to remind the user by at least one of playing audio, vibrating, playing video, presenting text, etc. For example, the device server 220 can send information indicating the driving behavior of the vehicle to the in-vehicle device to prompt the in-vehicle device 110 to issue an alarm through the indicating device.

[0044] In the case of a vehicle such as a shared vehicle (e.g., a shared bicycle) or an autonomous vehicle whose itinerary can be determined based on an order, the framework 200 can further include a transaction server 230. In this case, a ride-hailing application can be installed in both the in-vehicle device 110 (e.g., the in-vehicle device 110 of an autonomous vehicle) and the user device 130. At this time, the in-vehicle device 110 can be regarded as the driver client of the ride-hailing application, and the user device 130 can be regarded as the user client of the ride-hailing application. The transaction server 230 can be used, for example, to create an order and manage the status of the order. The status of the order can include, for example, but is not limited to, trip start, in-trip, pending payment, paid, etc. In some embodiments, when the driving behavior of the vehicle indicates that the vehicle has run a red light, the transaction server 230 can, for example, instruct the ride-hailing application to present a user interface including a prompt message to prompt the user that a red light has been run.

[0045] The user server 240 can be used, for example, to record user information. In some embodiments, when the driving behavior of the vehicle indicates that the vehicle has run a red light, the user server 240 can record the user's red-light running behavior and deduct behavior points from the user. Exemplarily, a user with a behavior score lower than a preset score will not be able to create an autonomous driving order.

[0046] Figure 3 The flowchart of the information flow 300 for determining the driving behavior according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. The information flow 300 involves the electronic device 310 and the server 120. Figure 3 The electronic device 310 in Figure 1The in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130. In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 is a device installed in the vehicle 101, and the user device 130 is a device of the user who rides in the vehicle 101. Therefore, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130, that is, the electronic device 310, can also be referred to as an electronic device associated with the vehicle 101.

[0047] For ease of discussion, reference will be made to Figure 1 the environment 100 to describe the information flow 300.

[0048] In the information flow 300, the electronic device 310 can obtain (301) location information indicating the geographical location where the vehicle is located. As mentioned above, the electronic device 310 can obtain the location information of the geographical location where the vehicle is located, for example, through a positioning module installed in the vehicle (such as a vehicle). When the electronic device 310 is the user device 130, the user device 130 can obtain the location information obtained by the positioning module installed on the vehicle through a communication connection with the in-vehicle device 110, for example. The user device 130 can also obtain the location information of the geographical location where the user device 130 is located based on the positioning module installed in the user device 130, and determine the location information of the geographical location where the vehicle is located as the location information.

[0049] The electronic device 310 can send (302) the location information to the server 120 through a communication connection with the server 120, so that the server 120 can obtain the location information indicating the geographical location where the vehicle is located. The electronic device 310 can report the location information to the server 120 through Bluetooth, for example. In some embodiments, the electronic device 310 can send the location information to the server 120 through an electronic device associated with the vehicle. For example, the electronic device 310 can also send a long link / short link containing at least the location information to the server 120 through a communication module (such as a GSM module) installed in the electronic device 310 to report the location information to the server 120. In some embodiments, the electronic device 310 can also determine the driving direction and movement trajectory of the vehicle based on the location information, and send the driving direction and movement trajectory together with the location information to the server 120.

[0050] The server 120 can determine (303) the status information from the reference information. The reference information at least indicates the cycle information of the traffic lights (such as the cycle duration), and the status information indicates the status of the target traffic lights within at least the area range matching the geographical location (such as whether the vehicle is allowed to pass).

[0051] In some embodiments, the reference information may be directly obtained by the server 120 from a relevant database (such as a traffic database). For example, the server 120 may query the traffic database based on the geographical location information of the vehicle to obtain the reference information of the target traffic lights within the area range matching the geographical location. In some embodiments, the reference information may also be determined by the server 120 based on the trajectory data of multiple vehicles. The trajectory data may at least include the movement trajectory of the vehicle. The trajectory data may also indicate the movement time associated with the movement trajectory. For example, it may indicate that the vehicle stops driving at time A and starts driving at time B, etc. In some embodiments, the server 120 may receive the geographical location information corresponding to different vehicles from multiple electronic devices 310. For example, the server 120 may respectively determine the trajectory data of each vehicle based on the received geographical location information. In some embodiments, the server 120 may also directly receive the trajectory data corresponding to different vehicles from multiple electronic devices 310.

[0052] In some embodiments, to ensure the timeliness of the data, the server 120 may obtain the trajectory data of multiple vehicles within at least the area range during a predetermined time period. The server 120 may then determine, based on the trajectory data, the starting time of the first vehicle to start at the target traffic lights during the predetermined time period and the subsequent starting times of at least one other vehicle. The server 120 may determine the offset duration between the starting time and the subsequent starting times by comparing the starting time and the subsequent starting times, and determine the reference information based on the offset duration.

[0053] Regarding the specific manner of determining the reference information based on the offset duration, in some embodiments, the server 120 may determine at least one offset duration between the starting time of the first vehicle to start and the subsequent starting times of at least one other vehicle, and determine the reference information based on the at least one offset duration. For example, the maximum offset duration among the at least one offset duration may be determined as the duration for which the traffic lights indicate that vehicles are allowed to pass. In some embodiments, to avoid the presence of the trajectory data of vehicles running red lights in the obtained trajectory data, the server 120 may also determine the distribution information indicating the time-domain distribution of multiple vehicles during the offset duration, and determine the reference information based on the distribution information. In this case, the server 120 may exclude the trajectory data of vehicles running red lights with a small number based on the distribution information, and then may determine the reference information based on at least one offset duration between the starting time of the first vehicle to start among multiple vehicles conforming to traffic rules and the subsequent starting times of at least one other vehicle.

[0054] Server 120 can further determine status information indicating at least the status of the target traffic light at the current moment based on the reference information and the current moment. For example, Server 120 can determine whether the target traffic light indicates permission to pass at the current moment based on the cycle information of the target traffic light indicated by the reference information, the end moment when the target traffic light last indicated permission to pass, and the current moment.

[0055] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, Server 120 can determine the reference information and the status information based on a predetermined rule and / or algorithm. Alternatively or additionally, in some embodiments, Server 120 can also provide the obtained geographical location information and / or trajectory data to the model and obtain the reference information and the status information from the model. The present disclosure does not limit the specific manner in which Server 120 determines the reference information and the status information.

[0056] Server 120 can determine (304) the driving behavior related to the vehicle based on the status information and the geographical location information. Exemplarily, if the status information indicates that the vehicle is not allowed to pass (for example, red light status), and the geographical location information of the vehicle indicates that the vehicle is passing through the intersection, Server 120 can determine that a violation driving behavior has occurred. In some embodiments, in response to determining that the vehicle has a violation driving behavior, Server 120 can associate the user information of the user associated with the vehicle with the violation driving behavior. Server 120 can, for example, score the behaviors of different users. It can be understood that if a certain user has a violation driving behavior, the score corresponding to that user is relatively low. Server 120 can, for example, reject the orders of users whose corresponding scores are lower than a preset score.

[0057] Server 120 can cause the indicating component associated with the vehicle to indicate the driving behavior in a predetermined manner based on the determined driving behavior. In some embodiments, if it is determined that the vehicle has a violation driving behavior, Server 120 can cause the indicating component associated with the vehicle to indicate the violation driving behavior in a first predetermined manner. If it is determined that the vehicle does not have a violation driving behavior, Server 120 can cause the indicating component associated with the vehicle to indicate the driving behavior in a second predetermined manner. The first predetermined manner and the second predetermined manner here can be the same manner or different manners. The indicating component associated with the vehicle here can be, for example, an indicating component installed on the vehicle (which can also be called the first indicating component), or an indicating component associated with the vehicle (for example, an indicating component installed at the user device 130 of the user riding in the vehicle, which can also be called the second indicating component), and it can include, for example, but not limited to, a display screen, a vibration motor, a speaker, a buzzer, an LED light, etc.

[0058] In some embodiments, the server 120 may send (305) information indicating the driving behavior of the vehicle to the electronic device 120, so that the electronic device 310 can obtain the information indicating the driving behavior of the vehicle. The electronic device 310 may determine whether there is any illegal driving behavior based on this information. The electronic device 310 may cause an indicating component associated with the vehicle to indicate (306) the driving behavior in a predetermined manner based on the determination result. For example, when the electronic device 310 is the in-vehicle device 110, it may cause the first indicating component to indicate the driving behavior in a predetermined manner. When the electronic device 310 is the user device 130, it may cause the second indicating component to indicate the driving behavior in a predetermined manner.

[0059] In the case where the information indicates an illegal driving behavior, the first indicating component and / or the second indicating component may, for example, prompt the user of the illegal driving behavior by emitting sound and / or visual alarms. For example, the display screen of the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may emit a visual alarm by presenting an image, a video, and / or text, etc. The speaker of the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may emit a sound alarm by playing an audio. In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may also emit various forms of alarms by instructing a buzzer to sound, a light strip and / or an LED to flash, a vibration motor to vibrate, etc. In some embodiments, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may emit an alarm by a combination of one or more of the above. For example, a sound and a visual alarm may be presented simultaneously through the display screen and the speaker. In some embodiments, for different types of vehicles (such as motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles), the electronic device 310 may instruct the first indicating component and / or the second indicating component to emit an alarm in different predetermined manners. It can be understood that the present disclosure does not limit the specific manner of emitting an alarm.

[0060] In summary, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 may obtain the geographical location information of the geographical location where the vehicle is located and provide the geographical location information to the server 120. The server 120 may determine the status information indicating the status of the target traffic lights within at least the area range matching the geographical location based on the reference information including at least the cycle information of the traffic lights. The server 120 may determine the driving behavior related to the vehicle based on the status information and the geographical location information, and send the information indicating the driving behavior of the vehicle to the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130, so that the in-vehicle device 110 and / or the user device 130 can cause the indicating component associated with the vehicle to indicate the driving behavior in a predetermined manner based on the information.

[0061] In this way, based on the trajectory data of multiple traffic data, it can be determined whether the current vehicle has a violation behavior, and in the case of a violation behavior, an alarm is issued to the user, which helps to ensure traffic safety.

[0062] Example process

[0064] At block 410, the server 120 obtains location information indicating the geographical location where the vehicle is located.

[0065] At block 420, the server 120 determines status information from the reference information, where the status information indicates the status of the target traffic light at least within the area range matching the geographical location.
