[0042] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely used to explain the technical solutions of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0043] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0044] The main solution of the embodiment of the present application is: when monitoring that the vehicle's intelligent driving function is turned on, obtain multiple dimensions of information that affect the reliability of the intelligent driving system; the multiple dimensions of information include road information ahead, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information and vehicle current status information; based on preset scoring rules, score each dimension of information separately to obtain the reliability score corresponding to each dimension of information; based on all reliability scores, determine the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system.

[0045] Advanced intelligent driving features are increasingly being used in vehicles, providing driver assistance and improving driving convenience. However, in practice, most intelligent driving systems only offer real-time assisted driving capabilities and lack future reliability assessments and early warning mechanisms. This makes it difficult for drivers to understand the reliability of the automated driving system in advance. This lack of transparency not only reduces driver trust in the intelligent driving system but can also prevent drivers from taking control of the vehicle at critical moments, increasing driving risks.

[0046] This application provides a solution that can comprehensively consider multi-dimensional information such as road information ahead, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information, and vehicle's current status information that affect the reliability of the intelligent driving system when the vehicle turns on the intelligent driving function, score each dimensional information to obtain a corresponding reliability score, and determine the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system based on all reliability scores, converting abstract factors such as driving environment and vehicle status into specific scores, making the reliability evaluation more quantitative and objective, and providing the driver with a comprehensive and accurate reliability evaluation, so that the driver can understand the system reliability status and enhance their trust in the intelligent driving system. It can also remind the driver to take over the vehicle in time at critical moments to reduce driving risks.

[0047] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, etc., or an electronic device capable of implementing the above functions. The following uses the vehicle controller as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the following embodiments.

[0048] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for evaluating the reliability of an intelligent driving system, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the first embodiment of the intelligent driving system reliability assessment method of this application.

[0049] In this embodiment, the intelligent driving system reliability assessment method may include steps S100 to S300:

[0050] Step S100, when monitoring that the vehicle's intelligent driving function is turned on, obtain multiple dimensions of information that affect the reliability of the intelligent driving system; the multiple dimensions of information include road information ahead, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information, and vehicle current status information.

[0051] Step S200: Scoring each dimension of information based on a preset scoring rule to obtain a reliability score corresponding to each dimension of information.

[0052] Step S300: Determine the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system based on all reliability scores.

[0053] Specifically, during the operation of a vehicle's intelligent driving system, its reliability may be affected by a combination of factors. In order to help the driver accurately understand the reliability of the intelligent driving system, it is possible to obtain multiple dimensional information affecting the reliability of the intelligent driving system in real time when monitoring that the vehicle's intelligent driving function is turned on, so as to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the reliability of the intelligent driving system; among them, the multiple dimensional information may include but is not limited to the vehicle's front road information, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information, and vehicle current status information, etc. In actual applications, the above information can be obtained through various sensors installed on the vehicle and external data sources; for example, the type and road conditions of the road ahead can be identified through the vehicle's image acquisition device, and radar and lidar can assist in judging the curvature of the road and the distance to obstacles; the vehicle's meteorological sensors can sense the current weather conditions, or obtain real-time weather information from the meteorological department through the vehicle's Internet of Vehicles function; the vehicle's traffic information receiving system can receive real-time road condition information from the traffic management department, and can also obtain the road conditions encountered by the vehicle ahead through vehicle-to-vehicle communication (V2V); the vehicle's driver monitoring system (such as a camera monitoring the driver's facial expressions, eye closure frequency, etc.) can determine the driver's current status; the vehicle's own fault diagnosis system can detect the operating status of various vehicle components, etc.

[0054] Based on preset scoring rules, each dimension of information is scored to obtain a corresponding reliability score for each dimension of information. In one feasible embodiment, road ahead information includes at least one of roundabouts, U-turns, unprotected left turns, sharp curvatures, road width, tunnels, and slopes; current weather information includes visibility information; real-time road condition information includes at least one of traffic accidents, congestion, traffic lights, ramp entry, merging into the main road, lane changes, speed changes, and toll booths; driver's current state information includes the driver's mental state; and / or vehicle's current state information includes speed information and vehicle maintenance information; each of the different road ahead information, current weather information, real-time road condition information, driver's current state information, and vehicle's current state information is assigned a corresponding reliability score. It should be noted that the preset scoring rules may include the correspondence between different dimensional information and reliability scores, which may be a reliability score pre-assigned to different dimensional information based on relevant industry standards or expert experience. The reliability scores corresponding to different dimensional information may be the same or different. The vehicle controller can determine the specific reliability score corresponding to the dimensional information based on the monitored dimensional information and the preset scoring rules.

[0055] For example, after the vehicle turns on the intelligent driving function, when it detects the presence of roundabouts and large curvatures on the road ahead of the vehicle, and at the same time obtains the road width and slope information ahead, the reliability scores corresponding to the roundabout, large curvature, road width and slope information can be superimposed to obtain the reliability score corresponding to the road ahead information; similarly, the reliability scores corresponding to the current weather information, real-time road conditions ahead, the driver's current status information and the vehicle's current status information can also be superimposed and calculated according to the above method.

[0056] After determining the reliability scores corresponding to the road ahead information, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information, and vehicle's current status information, all reliability scores can be combined to determine the final reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system. In a feasible implementation, step S300 may specifically include: taking a weighted sum of all reliability scores to determine the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system. That is, according to the importance of each dimensional information (the degree of influence on the reliability of the intelligent driving system), a corresponding weight can be set for each dimensional information, and the score of each dimension can be multiplied by the weight and summed up. The final total reliability score is the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system. When the influence of the above-mentioned multiple dimensional information is comparable, the above-mentioned reliability scores can also be directly added and calculated to obtain the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system for the driver's reference.

[0057] During driving, the driver can send instructions to the vehicle (such as issuing a voice command of "output the current reliability assessment result"). After receiving the driver's instruction, the vehicle can display the reliability assessment result of the current intelligent driving system on the on-board display screen, or the vehicle can directly broadcast the reliability assessment result by voice. In order to further simplify user operations and provide a more intelligent reliability assessment experience, in a feasible embodiment, step S300 can also include step S400 to automatically output reliability prompt information, so that the driver can promptly obtain the reliability information of the intelligent driving system:

[0058] Step S400: Generate and output intelligent driving reliability prompt information based on the reliability evaluation result; the form of the intelligent driving reliability prompt information includes at least one of voice prompt, text prompt and steering wheel vibration prompt.

[0059] Specifically, after determining the reliability evaluation result of the intelligent driving system, the vehicle can automatically generate and output intelligent driving reliability prompt information, which can include the current reliability status and driving suggestions, etc.; the form of intelligent reliability prompt information can include but is not limited to voice prompts, text prompts and steering wheel vibration prompts. For example, when the reliability evaluation result of the current intelligent driving system is low, the vehicle can output a text sign through the on-board display screen that says "The current intelligent driving system reliability is low, please pay more attention and prepare to take over the vehicle" as a reminder. At the same time, the above text content can be output in the form of voice to prevent the driver from not noticing the above text information in time due to inattention, which affects driving safety; while performing voice and text reminders, prompts can also be given through steering wheel vibration to allow the driver to concentrate. In a feasible embodiment, the above step S400 can specifically include steps S410 to S440, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a detailed flow chart of step S400:

[0060] Step S410: Determine the reliability level of the intelligent driving system based on the reliability evaluation result; the reliability level is strong reliability, medium reliability or weak reliability.

[0061] Step S420: When the reliability level is strong reliability, generate and output prompt information indicating that the intelligent driving function is in normal use.

[0062] Step S430: When the reliability level is medium, generate and output attention maintenance prompt information.

[0063] Step S440: When the reliability level is weak reliability, generate and output vehicle takeover prompt information.

[0064] Usually, multiple reliability levels (such as strong reliability, medium reliability or weak reliability) can be pre-set. Different reliability levels correspond to different total reliability score ranges. The specific reliability level of the current intelligent driving system can be determined according to the total reliability score corresponding to the reliability assessment result; thus, targeted prompts can be given to the driver according to different reliability levels; when the reliability level is strong reliability, it indicates that the intelligent driving system can be used safely at this time, so it can generate and output prompt information for normal use of the intelligent driving function to inform the driver that the intelligent driving function can be used for driving with confidence; when the reliability level is medium reliability, it generates and outputs attention maintenance prompt information to inform the driver that the current reliability is average and a certain amount of attention needs to be maintained to deal with emergencies; when the reliability level is weak reliability, it generates and outputs vehicle takeover prompt information to remind the driver that the current reliability is weak and that attention needs to be increased to prepare to take over the vehicle. The prompt information corresponding to the above different levels can be output in the form of text or voice. In addition, the signal strength icon can be output on the vehicle HMI interface (Human-Machine Interface) according to different reliability levels, such as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of an example vehicle HMI interface. Figure 3 Icon A is the signal strength icon used to represent the reliability of the intelligent driving system. Strong reliability can display 3 bars of signal strength, medium reliability can display 2 bars of signal strength, and weak reliability can display 1 bar of signal strength. The visualized signal strength icon can help the driver understand the current reliability of the intelligent driving system more intuitively, and ensure that the driver has a certain psychological expectation of the status of the intelligent driving system in the future.

[0065] Alternatively, in another feasible implementation, step S400 may further specifically include steps S450 to S460, selectively providing reliability prompts to avoid unnecessary prompt interference to the driver:

[0066] Step S450: When the reliability evaluation result is greater than the preset evaluation threshold, the intelligent driving reliability prompt information output operation is not performed.

[0067] Step S460: When the reliability evaluation result is less than or equal to the preset evaluation threshold, output intelligent driving reliability prompt information.

[0068] Specifically, a reliability assessment threshold can be set in advance based on the actual performance and safety requirements of the intelligent driving system. After completing the reliability assessment of the intelligent driving system, the reliability assessment result can be compared with the preset assessment threshold; if the reliability assessment result is greater than the preset assessment threshold, it indicates that the vehicle's intelligent driving system is in a reliable state. At this time, the output operation of the intelligent driving reliability prompt information can be omitted, that is, no prompt about the intelligent driving reliability is issued to the driver, so as to avoid unnecessary reminders to the driver when the reliability of the intelligent driving system is high, thereby reducing the driver's distraction and improving driving comfort and concentration. Only when the reliability assessment result is less than or equal to the preset assessment threshold will the intelligent driving reliability prompt information be output to promptly remind the driver to pay attention to the reliability issues of the intelligent driving system to ensure driving safety. For example, when the reliability is less than the preset assessment threshold, a voice prompt can be issued, "The current reliability is low, please hold the steering wheel tightly and look straight ahead, and drive carefully" to improve the driver's concentration. Alternatively, when the reliability is lower than the preset assessment threshold, the driver's current state can be further monitored. If the driver is detected to have incorrect behaviors such as improper sitting posture, not looking straight ahead, or taking both hands off the steering wheel, an alarm prompt can be issued. By comparing the reliability assessment result with the preset assessment threshold, it is decided whether to output the prompt information, thereby realizing effective monitoring and reminder of the reliability of the intelligent driving system. This mechanism not only avoids unnecessary interference, but also can remind the driver in time when necessary, improving the safety and reliability of the intelligent driving system, but also improving the driver's user experience and trust in the intelligent driving system.

[0069] It can be understood that the intelligent driving system reliability assessment method provided in the embodiment of the present application can comprehensively consider multi-dimensional information such as the road ahead information, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information, and vehicle's current status information that affect the reliability of the intelligent driving system when the vehicle turns on the intelligent driving function, score each dimensional information to obtain the corresponding reliability score, and determine the reliability assessment result of the intelligent driving system based on all reliability scores, and convert abstract factors such as driving environment and vehicle status into specific scores, so that the reliability assessment is more quantitative and objective, providing the driver with a comprehensive and accurate reliability assessment, facilitating the driver to understand the system reliability status, so as to enhance their trust in the intelligent driving system, and can remind the driver to take over the vehicle in time at critical moments to reduce driving risks.

[0070] To help understand the intelligent driving system reliability assessment method provided in the first embodiment of the present application, the following example is given for illustration, specifically:

[0071] All possible scenarios that may affect the intelligent driving system can be exhaustively enumerated, and preset reliability scores can be assigned in advance to the road ahead information, current weather information, real-time road condition information, driver's current status information, and vehicle's current status information. For the road ahead information, its reliability score is denoted as a. Among them, the reliability score corresponding to the roundabout is -1, the reliability score corresponding to the U-turn is -1, the reliability score corresponding to the unprotected left turn is -1, the reliability score corresponding to the large curvature is -0.5, and the reliability score corresponding to the road width is - 1, -0.5, 0, 0.5, or 1 (the wider the road, the higher the corresponding reliability score); the reliability score corresponding to a tunnel is -1; the reliability score corresponding to a slope is -1, -0.5, or 0 (the flatter the slope, the higher the corresponding reliability score); in actual vehicle operation, if any of the above scenarios exists, the reliability score a corresponding to the road information ahead is the superposition of the scores of the above scenarios. For example, if there is a U-turn ahead (-1) and the road width is narrow (-1), the reliability score corresponding to the road information ahead is a = -1 - 1 = -2.

[0072] The reliability score of the current weather information is denoted as b. Current weather information can include rain, snow, and fog, and different weather information is assigned a preset reliability score based on visibility conditions. Rain is assigned a reliability score of -1, snow is assigned a reliability score of -2, and fog is assigned a reliability score of -3.

[0073] For the real-time road condition information ahead, its reliability score is denoted as c; among them, the reliability score corresponding to a traffic accident is -3, the reliability score corresponding to congestion is -2, the reliability score corresponding to a red light is -1, the reliability score corresponding to a green light is 0, the reliability score corresponding to entering the ramp is -1, the reliability score corresponding to merging into the main road is -1, the reliability score corresponding to changing lanes is -1, the reliability score corresponding to speed change is -1, 0 or 1 (for example, the speed exceeds the speed limit or the speed changes too quickly is -1, the speed remains within the speed limit and changes smoothly is 0, and the speed is below the speed limit and changes smoothly is 1). The reliability score corresponding to a toll station is -1 or 0 (for example, if there is a toll station ahead is -1, and if there is no toll station is 0).

[0074] For the driver's current status information, its reliability score is recorded as d; the driver's mental state can be obtained through DMS (Driver Monitor System), and different mental states are assigned different reliability scores. For example, the driver is in an extremely tired state, such as driving for a long time without rest, feeling unwell, etc., and the intelligent driving system detects that the driver's fatigue level is high (such as the driver yawns frequently and closes his eyes frequently through the camera), and the corresponding reliability score is -2; the driver is in a fatigued state, but has not reached the level of extreme fatigue, and the intelligent driving system detects that the driver's fatigue level is moderate (such as the driver yawns occasionally and is not focused through the camera), and the corresponding reliability score is -1; the driver's mental state is normal, and the intelligent driving system detects that the driver is focused and has no signs of fatigue, and the corresponding reliability score is 0; the driver's mental state is good, and the intelligent driving system detects that the driver is highly focused and responsive, and the corresponding reliability score is 1.

[0075] For the vehicle's current status information, its reliability score is denoted as e; the reliability score corresponding to the vehicle speed can be -2, -1, 0, 1, or 2 (the higher the speed, the lower the reliability score), and the reliability score corresponding to the vehicle maintenance information can be -1, 0, or 1 (for example, if the vehicle has unresolved maintenance issues, the corresponding reliability score is -1; if the vehicle's maintenance status is normal, the corresponding reliability score is 0; if the vehicle's maintenance status is good, with all key systems in optimal condition, the corresponding reliability score is 1).

[0076] Based on the above-mentioned preset reliability scores and the actual vehicle information collected, the actual reliability scores a, b, c, d and e corresponding to the road ahead information, current weather information, real-time road condition information ahead, driver's current status information and vehicle's current status information can be determined respectively; thereby, the total reliability score M=a+b+c+d+e corresponding to the reliability evaluation result of the current vehicle intelligent driving system can be determined.

[0077] The vehicle's reliability level is determined based on the total reliability score. When M is less than -5, the reliability level is weak. In this case, 1 grid of signal strength can be displayed, and a prompt message can be output to remind the user to pay more attention and prepare to take over the vehicle. When -5≤M≤-3, the reliability level is medium, indicating that the current intelligent driving system has average reliability. In this case, 2 grids of signal strength can be displayed, and a corresponding prompt message can be output to remind the user to maintain a certain level of attention. When M is greater than -3, the reliability is strong. In this case, 3 grids of signal strength can be displayed, and the driver is prompted that the current intelligent driving system is highly reliable and can drive with confidence.

[0078] It should be noted that the above examples are only used to understand this application and do not constitute a limitation on the reliability assessment method of the intelligent driving system of this application. More simple transformations based on this technical concept are all within the scope of protection of this application.

[0079] This application also provides a device for evaluating the reliability of an intelligent driving system. Figure 4 , the intelligent driving system reliability evaluation device includes:
