Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle sickness prediction, in particular to a method and system for predicting the degree of vehicle sickness of a driver or passenger of an electric vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] Vehicle sickness, as a common manifestation of motion sickness, is mainly caused by the conflict between the motion state perceived by the human body's inner ear balance receptors and the information received by the vision during vehicle driving, which leads to the disorder of the central nervous system and a series of discomfort symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and pale complexion. Vehicle sickness not only greatly affects the travel experience of the driver or passenger and reduces their satisfaction with the electric vehicle, but also may pose a threat to road safety in severe cases. With the continuous development and popularization of electric vehicles, their share in the travel field is increasing. While enjoying the many conveniences brought by electric vehicles, such as zero emissions, low noise, and lower operating costs, the phenomenon of vehicle sickness of the driver or passenger in the vehicle has gradually attracted widespread attention.

[0003] In the field of traditional fuel vehicles, there have been many studies and countermeasures on vehicle sickness, but due to the significant differences between electric vehicles and traditional fuel vehicles in driving characteristics, power system layout, and vehicle vibration characteristics, these differences may have different effects on the driver's or passenger's experience of vehicle sickness. For example, the power output of electric vehicles is more direct and rapid, and the vibration frequency and amplitude generated by the motor during operation are different from those of the engine, which may change the human body's motion perception and balance state in the vehicle. In addition, the center of gravity distribution, suspension system design, and interior space layout of electric vehicles may also change due to factors such as the installation location of the battery pack, further affecting the comfort and vehicle sickness tendency of the driver or passenger.

[0004] Currently, existing methods for predicting the degree of vehicle sickness often rely mainly on the subjective feedback of the driver or passenger, such as collecting passengers' descriptions of their symptoms and self-perception scores during the ride through questionnaires and other means. This method not only has a large subjective bias and is difficult to accurately quantify the degree of vehicle sickness, but also cannot deeply analyze the specific reasons for the occurrence of vehicle sickness and the interaction between the influencing factors. At the same time, some studies have attempted to use some physiological monitoring devices to predict the vehicle sickness state of the driver or passenger, such as heart rate variability monitors, electroencephalographs, etc., to indirectly reflect the vehicle sickness state. However, these devices are usually complex and costly, and data interpretation requires professional medical knowledge background, making it difficult to be widely popularized and applied in actual vehicle design, research and development, and use scenarios.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0012] The present application aims to provide a method and system for predicting the degree of car sickness of an electric vehicle driver or passenger, and to achieve comprehensive and accurate prediction of the degree of car sickness of a driver or passenger.

[0013] The above objects, features and advantages of the present application will become more apparent from the following detailed description considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0014] As shown in the Figure 1 , the embodiment provides a method for predicting the degree of car sickness of a driver or passenger of an electric vehicle, comprising the following steps: Step 1: obtaining historical physiological data of a driver or passenger and vehicle operation data; the physiological data specifically includes electroencephalogram data, skin conductance data, eye movement data and facial expression data.

[0015] Step 2: preprocessing the physiological data and the vehicle operation data, including filtering, denoising and normalization, etc., to eliminate noise interference and dimension difference in the data, improve the quality and availability of the data, and obtain preprocessed physiological data and preprocessed vehicle operation data.

[0016] Step 3: extracting features from the preprocessed physiological data and the preprocessed vehicle operation data to obtain feature parameters related to car sickness.

[0017] Among them, the feature parameters related to car sickness include: the average amplitude of the electroencephalogram signal sequence Mean , the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the electroencephalogram signal sequence PSD , the electroencephalogram signal sequence after wavelet transform W , the baseline level of the skin conductance signal sequence SCL , the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the skin conductance signal sequence PSD S , the skin conductance signal sequence after wavelet transform W S , the number of eye fixation points NOF , the average eye fixation time MFD , the blink frequency BR , the facial expression key point distance d , the expression muscle activity intensity MAI , the vehicle acceleration variance and the vehicle angular velocity variance . Each feature parameter will be introduced one by one as follows, which specifically includes the following steps: The extraction process of the average amplitude of the electroencephalogram signal sequence Mean , the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the electroencephalogram signal sequence PSD and the electroencephalogram signal sequence after wavelet transform W is as follows: Step 301: obtaining the electroencephalogram signal sequence based on the preprocessed electroencephalogram data, and calculating the average amplitude of the electroencephalogram signal sequence Mean, power spectral density of frequency domain signal of EEG signal sequence PSD And the EEG signal sequence after wavelet transformation W .

[0018] The average amplitude of the EEG signal sequence Mean , calculated using the following formula: ; in, Indicates the first The amplitude of the EEG signal sampling point, N is the total number of EEG signal sampling points. This feature reflects the average amplitude level of the EEG signal over a period of time.

[0019] The power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the EEG signal sequence PSD Calculated as follows: First, the EEG signal sequence is subjected to fast Fourier transform to convert it from the time domain to the frequency domain. FFT The result is a complex sequence that contains the frequency components of the signal and the corresponding amplitudes. The formula is as follows: ; in, x(n) is the time domain signal of the EEG signal sequence, is the frequency domain signal of the EEG signal sequence, is the total number of sampling points of the EEG signal, j is an imaginary unit, k is the frequency domain index, corresponding to the k spectral lines, , n is the time domain sampling point index, representing the first n sampling points, .

[0020] Secondly, based on the frequency domain signal of the EEG signal sequence, the power spectrum density of the frequency domain signal of the EEG signal sequence is calculated PSD , the formula is as follows: ; in, Express Modulus, Represents the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the EEG signal sequence, by calculating FFT The power spectrum density can be obtained by square the modulus of the result and dividing it by the number of sampling points. The power spectrum density of the frequency domain signal of the EEG signal sequence represents the power distribution of the signal at different frequencies, which can help identify the main frequency components in the EEG signal, such as α Wave (8-13Hz),β waves (13-30 Hz) and so on.

[0021] the wavelet-transformed electroencephalogram sequence W , which is calculated by the following formula: ; wherein, is the electroencephalogram sequence, is the wavelet basis function, is the scale parameter, is the translation parameter, denotes the conjugate. The result of the wavelet transform denotes the wavelet coefficients of the signal at different scales and positions, which can be used to analyze the time-frequency characteristics of the electroencephalogram sequence, such as detecting transient events and frequency changes in the electroencephalogram. Through wavelet transform, the present application can analyze the electroencephalogram in time domain and frequency domain at the same time, and extract the local features of the signal by convolving the electroencephalogram with wavelet functions at different scales and positions.

[0022] In addition to calculating the average amplitude of the electroencephalogram sequence Mean , the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the electroencephalogram sequence PSD and the wavelet-transformed electroencephalogram sequence W , the present embodiment also calculates the variance and standard deviation of the electroencephalogram sequence based on the electroencephalogram sequence.

[0025] This embodiment determines whether the EEG signal sequence has quality abnormalities by calculating the variance and standard deviation of the EEG signal sequence for subsequent process decision-making. When the variance or standard deviation is too small, it indicates that the signal may be a straight line due to the detachment or poor contact of the sensor collecting the EEG signal; when the variance or standard deviation is too large, it indicates that large myoelectric, electrooculographic artifacts or motion artifacts may be mixed in. Small or large variances or standard deviations will be marked as "abnormal signal quality". When the variance or standard deviation is not large, the EEG signal sequence is of mild quality abnormality, and the EEG signal sequence is labeled with a low-weight quality label, and the model automatically downgrades its weight during training or inference; when the variance or standard deviation is too large, the EEG signal sequence is of severe quality abnormality, and the entire segment is directly discarded or triggered to be re-collected.

[0026] The feature extraction of EEG signals in this embodiment involves time domain, frequency domain and time-frequency domain analysis of the EEG signal sequence, which can more comprehensively and accurately reflect the brain wave conditions of the driver and passengers, making the subsequent prediction of motion sickness degree more accurate.

[0030] Secondly, based on the frequency domain signal of the skin conductance signal sequence, the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the skin conductance signal sequence is calculated PSD S , the formula is as follows: ; in, For Modulus, is the power spectral density of the frequency domain signal of the skin conductance signal sequence PSD S .

[0033] The skin conductance response SCR is calculated using the following formula: ; reflects the instantaneous change of the skin conductance and is used for event-related analysis.

[0034] The frequency and amplitude of the skin conductance response SCR are calculated using the following formula: ; ; wherein, T is the length of the time window, represents the peak count of the skin conductance response SCR , which can reflect the number of stress responses of the skin conductance, i.e. how many independent sympathetic activation events, represents the frequency of the skin conductance response SCR , which reflects how fast the skin conductance events occur, represents the maximum value of the skin conductance response, represents the minimum value of the skin conductance response, represents the amplitude of the skin conductance response, which reflects the activation intensity of the skin conductance response.

[0035] When the amplitude of the skin conductance response is too large or too small, it indicates that the patch of the skin conductance acquisition device is off or saturated with sweat, and in this case, the entire skin conductance signal sequence data is marked as invalid; when the frequency of the skin conductance response is too high and the waveform is dense, it is suspected to be a motion artifact, and manual review or re-cleaning using the Independent Component Analysis (ICA) method is performed.

[0036] The embodiment calculates the frequency and amplitude of the skin conductance response SCR and the skin conductance response SCR of the skin conductance signal sequence, which can ensure that the samples entering the car sickness degree prediction model are all noise-free samples.

[0037] The feature extraction of the skin conductance signal in the embodiment involves time domain, frequency domain and time-frequency domain analysis of the skin conductance signal sequence, which can comprehensively reflect the physiological state changes of the driver or passenger during the driving of the electric vehicle and provide an important physiological basis for the evaluation of car sickness degree.

[0039] The number of eye fixation points NOF is calculated by the following formula: ; Wherein, is the total number of fixation points detected within a certain time. This feature reflects the number of eye fixations within a certain time period.

[0040] The average eye fixation time MFD is calculated by the following formula: ; Wherein, represents the duration of the th fixation point. The average fixation time can reflect the length of time the eye stays at each fixation point.

[0041] The blink frequency BR is calculated by the following formula: ; Wherein, is the number of blinks detected within a time , which can reflect the blink frequency of the eye. A higher blink frequency is related to the inattention or fatigue of the driver.

[0042] In addition to calculating the number of eye fixation points NOF , average eye fixation time MFD and blink frequency BR , this embodiment also extracts features from eye movement signal trajectories based on the eye movement signal sequence, and calculates eye movement trajectory length and eye movement trajectory curvature.

[0043] The eye movement trajectory length is calculated by the following formula: ; Wherein, represents the eye movement trajectory length, represents the coordinates of the th sampling point on the eye movement trajectory, is the total number of eye movement signal sampling points. This feature reflects the total length of the eye movement trajectory and can be used to evaluate the activity level of eye movement.

[0044] The curvature of the eye movement trajectory is calculated using the following formula: ; in, represents the curvature of the eye movement trajectory, is the angle change of the eye movement trajectory along a certain path, The curvature of the eye movement trajectory can reflect the degree of curvature of the eye movement trajectory. A higher curvature indicates a more complex eye movement trajectory.

[0045] If the eye movement track is too short, it indicates that the sensor collecting the eye movement data is blocked, the driver's eyes are closed, or other reasons have caused the eye movement signal to be lost. In this case, the entire eye movement signal sequence is discarded or downgraded. If the curvature of the eye movement track increases suddenly, it indicates suspected blink artifacts or head movement interference, which triggers manual review or artifact removal.

[0046] This embodiment calculates the length and curvature of the eye movement trajectory and uses them as hard thresholds in the data cleaning stage to ensure that noise-free samples are used for subsequent training or inference.

[0047] This embodiment can accurately reflect the eye movements of the driver and passengers through the special extraction of eye movement signals, making the subsequent prediction of the degree of motion sickness more accurate.

[0051] The intensity of facial muscle activity MAI , calculated using the following formula: ; in, Indicates the The intensity of the facial muscles is the total number of muscles, which reflects the overall activity level of the driver's facial muscles.

[0052] In addition to calculating the distance between the facial expression key points d and facial muscle activity intensity MAI In addition, the facial muscle activity change rate is calculated based on the facial expression signal sequence.

[0053] The facial muscle activity change rate is calculated using the following formula: ; in, Indicates the rate of change of facial muscle activity, Indicates the change in muscle activity intensity.
