Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of intelligent transportation and traffic simulation technology, and in particular relates to an intelligent connected mixed traffic flow modeling method that integrates risk perception. Background Technology

[0002] With the large-scale application of autonomous driving technology, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology, and intelligent connected vehicles (CAVs), mixed traffic flows (i.e., mixed traffic flows) involving high-level adaptive cruise control (ACC) vehicles, autonomous driving (AV) vehicles, and traditional human-driven (HV) vehicles on highways, urban expressways, ramps, and other road sections are gradually becoming a reality. This type of mixed traffic flow is characterized by heterogeneous vehicle categories, differences in behavioral models, complex interactions, and uneven risk perception capabilities.

[0003] In existing technologies, models of vehicle longitudinal behavior (such as car-following) and lateral behavior (such as lane-changing) are relatively mature. For example, classic car-following models (such as the Intelligent Driver Model and the Wiedemann model) are used to describe the longitudinal motion of vehicles under conditions such as headway, speed difference, and acceleration; lane-changing models (such as the MOBIL model and the discrete choice model (Logit model)) are used to characterize vehicles' lane-changing intentions and gap selection decisions. At the same time, traffic simulation platforms (such as SUMO and VISSIM) are also widely used for traffic control strategy evaluation and traffic flow operation analysis.

[0004] However, existing technologies still have significant shortcomings in the following aspects: The behavioral differences and risk perception differences of various vehicle types (ACC, AV, HV) in the same traffic flow have not been systematically incorporated into the model, making it difficult to truly reflect the behavioral mechanisms of mixed traffic flows. Although some studies have considered vehicle risk perception or safety measurement, most of them remain at the macro level or local models, and there is a lack of unified modeling that uses risk value as an input variable for behavioral decisions (longitudinal following or lateral lane changing). In lane-changing decision-making models, most only generate intentions and select gaps based on traffic conditions (such as distance between vehicles, speed difference, and lane speed difference), and lack the inclusion of the vehicle's real-time perceived risk level into the two key sub-processes of intention generation and gap selection, thus failing to fully characterize the behavioral inhibition effect in high-risk scenarios. Although traffic simulation platforms have been used in mixed traffic scenarios involving multiple types of vehicles, most have not integrated differentiated risk perception-behavior coupling models into the simulation platform, nor have they further analyzed key indicators such as mixed traffic flow operation, lane-changing behavior, and risk exposure levels under different penetration rate combinations.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a modeling method for intelligent connected mixed traffic flow that integrates risk perception. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent connected mixed traffic flow modeling method that integrates risk perception. This method systematically incorporates risk perception in a two-dimensional plane into the longitudinal following behavior model and the lateral lane-changing behavior model of vehicles in mixed traffic scenarios, targeting the behavioral mechanisms of high-level adaptive cruise control (ACC), autonomous driving (AV), and human-driven (HV) vehicles. Furthermore, it differentiates the behavioral parameters of different vehicle types and integrates them into a unified simulation platform to achieve accurate simulation and evaluation of the mixed traffic flow operation under different penetration rate combinations.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this invention provides a method for modeling intelligent connected mixed traffic flow that integrates risk perception, comprising: Collect trajectory and environmental data of autonomous vehicles and human-driven vehicles at different levels in mixed traffic scenarios, and preprocess the collected data. Based on the preprocessed data, a two-dimensional risk field is constructed with the vehicle's centroid as the core, the real-time perceived risk value of each vehicle is calculated, and risk sensitivity parameters for different types of vehicles are set to distinguish the differentiated risk perception results. The real-time perceived risk value is placed in front of the longitudinal following model and coupled with the basic longitudinal action function to construct a risk-decision coupled longitudinal behavior model. The real-time perceived risk value is introduced into the lane-changing motivation generation module and lane-changing gap selection module of the lateral lane-changing model to construct a risk-behavior coupled lane-changing decision model. The risk-decision coupled longitudinal behavior model, the risk-decision coupled lane-changing decision model, and the differentiated risk perception parameters are integrated into a unified simulation platform. Different penetration rate combinations of different types of vehicles are set, dynamic simulation of mixed traffic flow is performed, and the simulation results are output.

[0008] Preferably, the process of collecting trajectory and environmental data of autonomous vehicles at different levels and human-driven vehicles in mixed traffic scenarios, and preprocessing the collected data, includes: The system simultaneously collects trajectory and environmental data from high-level adaptive cruise vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and human-driven vehicles. The trajectory and environmental data includes vehicle position, speed, acceleration, lateral offset, lane number, distance to the vehicle in front and behind, and status of surrounding traffic participants. The collected vehicle position and speed signals are smoothed and filtered by Savitzky-Golay to eliminate noise, and the lateral offset of the vehicle and its relative motion with the preceding vehicle are calculated using a predetermined sliding window. Based on the continuous changes in the vehicle's lateral offset, lane number, and relative motion state with the vehicle in front, follow-up event segments and lane-changing event segments are identified and extracted. Segments with a duration lower than a preset threshold are removed to obtain a structured trajectory dataset.

[0009] Preferably, the process of constructing a two-dimensional risk field and calculating the real-time perceived risk value for each vehicle includes: A double-elliptical two-dimensional risk field is established with the center of mass of the main vehicle as the origin. The repulsive forces of the main vehicle on each potential conflict source around it are superimposed to obtain the overall risk value. Calculate the repulsive force of the main vehicle to each conflict source, the repulsive force including the influence of the lateral and longitudinal relative position, vehicle mass and risk perception judgment differential parameters; Different risk perception judgment differential parameter values ​​are set according to vehicle type, and the overall risk value is weighted to obtain the differential risk perception result, which is used as the input parameter for subsequent longitudinal and lateral behavior models.

[0010] Preferably, the process of constructing a risk-decision coupled longitudinal behavioral model includes: The basic longitudinal acceleration is calculated based on the relative distance and speed difference between the vehicle and the vehicle in front, as well as the speed of the vehicle itself. The basic longitudinal motion function is then constructed based on the basic longitudinal acceleration. A risk perception correction function is established, which takes the real-time perceived risk value as input and outputs a risk correction term. The basic longitudinal action function and the risk perception correction function are coupled to generate the final longitudinal acceleration command, and the longitudinal following behavior is dynamically adjusted through risk perception.

[0011] Preferably, the process of constructing a risk-behavior coupled lane-changing decision-making model includes: Based on the real-time perceived risk value and the traffic state variables of the current lane and the target lane, a discrete choice model is used to calculate the probability of a vehicle's lane-changing intention. When the probability of lane change intention reaches a preset threshold, the gap acceptance probability is calculated based on the gap status in front and behind the target lane, the speed difference, and the real-time perceived risk value. When the probability of accepting the gap exceeds the execution threshold, a lane-changing action is triggered. At the same time, the safety constraints are adaptively adjusted according to the real-time perceived risk value to suppress lane-changing behavior in high-risk scenarios.

[0012] Preferably, the process of performing dynamic simulation of mixed traffic flow includes: The longitudinal behavior model, lane-changing decision model, and differentiated risk perception parameters are loaded into the simulation platform, and the vehicle state, simulation time step, and total duration are initialized. By configuring the ratio of high-level adaptive cruise vehicles to autonomous vehicles through the penetration rate setting module, mixed traffic scenarios with different levels of automation can be formed. When the simulation is running, the real-time perceived risk value of all vehicles is updated sequentially at each time step, the longitudinal motion state is updated according to the longitudinal behavior model, and the lateral lane change behavior is judged and executed according to the lane change decision model. The process is iterated until the simulation ends. Meanwhile, key operational indicators, including vehicle speed, traffic flow, density, lane change frequency, and risk exposure level, are recorded and calculated during the simulation process.

[0013] Preferably, the simulation platform includes: The model loading module is used to import the longitudinal behavior model, lane change decision model, and risk perception parameters. The penetration rate setting module is used to set the ratio of high-level adaptive cruise vehicles to autonomous vehicles in traffic flow; The behavior parameter configuration module is used to configure risk avoidance sensitivity parameters for different types of vehicles. The risk-decision coupling module is used to input the vehicle's real-time perceived risk value into the longitudinal behavior model and lane-changing decision model at each simulation time step; The simulation results analysis module is used to collect simulation data and calculate key operating indicators.

[0014] Preferably, the penetration rate setting module is used to set the following scenarios: In scenarios where vehicles are driven entirely by humans, the proportion of high-level adaptive cruise control vehicles and autonomous driving vehicles is 0%. In a mixed penetration scenario, the ratio of high-level adaptive cruise control vehicles to autonomous driving vehicles is 10% to 50%. In scenarios with high automation penetration, the proportion of high-level adaptive cruise vehicles and autonomous vehicles should not be less than 50%.

[0015] Preferably, the process by which the behavior parameter configuration module configures risk avoidance sensitivity parameters for different types of vehicles includes: Differentiated risk avoidance sensitivity parameters were set for human-driven vehicles, high-level adaptive cruise control vehicles, and autonomous vehicles, so that the risk avoidance sensitivity parameter value of human-driven vehicles was the highest, the risk avoidance sensitivity parameter value of autonomous vehicles was the lowest, and the risk avoidance sensitivity parameter value of high-level adaptive cruise control vehicles was in between.

[0016] Preferably, the dynamic simulation runs by performing the following operations at fixed time steps: The two-dimensional risk field is invoked to calculate the real-time perceived risk value of each vehicle at the current moment; The real-time perceived risk value is transmitted to the longitudinal behavior model and lane-changing decision model of each vehicle; The vehicle position, speed, and lane number are updated based on the longitudinal acceleration output by the longitudinal behavior model and the lateral commands output by the lane change decision model. At the end of each time step, refresh the status information of all vehicles and determine whether the simulation termination condition is met.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects: The method of this invention can systematically introduce two-dimensional planar risk perception, modify the target acceleration in the car-following model and the utility function of the lane-changing model at each time step by adjusting the risk-specific parameters of different vehicles, thereby forming a heterogeneous traffic flow evolution algorithm that integrates risk perception, and integrating it into the simulation platform to realize the analysis of the operation mechanism and the evaluation of control strategies under the combination of penetration rates of multiple types of vehicles.

[0018] The method of this invention realistically reproduces the differences in longitudinal following and lateral lane changing behaviors of ACC, AV and HV vehicles in mixed traffic flow, thereby improving the behavioral realism of the mixed traffic simulation model.

[0019] The method of this invention introduces two-dimensional planar risk perception and incorporates it into the vehicle behavior decision-making process, enabling the model to quantitatively characterize the trend of vehicle behavior suppression or acceleration of lane changing / speed change under different risk levels, thereby enhancing the model's sensitivity to safety / risk factors.

[0020] The method of this invention integrates the longitudinal and lateral sub-models of risk-decision coupling into a unified simulation platform, which is applicable to mixed traffic simulation under the condition of multiple vehicle penetration rates, thereby providing a systematic and operable tool for evaluating traffic control strategies.

[0021] The method of this invention can be used for road construction, smart highway operation, and control decision support in vehicle-road cooperative scenarios, enriching the technical means of mixed traffic flow analysis and simulation. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The accompanying drawings, which form part of this application, are used to provide a further understanding of this application. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of this application are used to explain this application and do not constitute an undue limitation of this application. In the drawings: Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the method flow according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for modeling intelligent connected mixed traffic flow that integrates risk perception, including: Collect trajectory and environmental data of autonomous vehicles and human-driven vehicles at different levels in mixed traffic scenarios, and preprocess the collected data. Based on the preprocessed data, a two-dimensional risk field is constructed with the vehicle's centroid as the core, the real-time perceived risk value of each vehicle is calculated, and risk sensitivity parameters for different types of vehicles are set to distinguish the differentiated risk perception results. By placing the real-time perceived risk value in the longitudinal following model and coupling it with the basic longitudinal action function, a risk-decision coupled longitudinal behavior model is constructed. By incorporating real-time perceived risk values ​​into the lane-changing motivation generation module and lane-changing gap selection module of the lateral lane-changing model, a risk-behavior coupled lane-changing decision model is constructed. The risk-decision coupled longitudinal behavior model, the risk-decision coupled lane-changing decision model, and the differentiated risk perception parameters are integrated into a unified simulation platform. Different penetration rate combinations of different types of vehicles are set, dynamic simulation of mixed traffic flow is performed, and the simulation results are output.

[0026] Furthermore, the process of collecting trajectory and environmental data of different levels of automated vehicles and human-driven vehicles in mixed traffic scenarios, and preprocessing the collected data, includes: Simultaneously collect trajectory and environmental data of high-level adaptive cruise vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and human-driven vehicles. The trajectory and environmental data include vehicle position, speed, acceleration, lateral offset, lane number, distance to the vehicle in front and behind, and status of surrounding traffic participants. The collected vehicle position and speed signals are smoothed and filtered by Savitzky-Golay to eliminate noise, and the lateral offset of the vehicle and its relative motion with the preceding vehicle are calculated using a predetermined sliding window. Based on the continuous changes in vehicle lateral deviation, lane number, and relative motion state with the vehicle in front, follow-up event segments and lane-changing event segments are identified and extracted. Segments with a duration of less than a preset threshold are removed to obtain a structured trajectory dataset.

[0027] Furthermore, this embodiment simultaneously collects trajectory and environmental data of different levels of autonomous vehicles (high-level adaptive cruise control (ACC) vehicles and autonomous driving vehicles (AV) vehicles) and human-driven vehicles (HV vehicles) in mixed traffic scenarios, and completes missing data completion, anomaly removal and spatiotemporal alignment. Specifically, by simultaneously collecting trajectory and environmental data of different levels of autonomous vehicles (high-level adaptive cruise control (ACC) vehicles and autonomous driving (AV) vehicles) and human-driven vehicles (HV vehicles) in mixed-traffic scenarios, information such as the longitudinal position, speed, acceleration, lane number, and status of vehicles in front and behind is obtained within a typical road cross-section. This data can originate from onboard GNSS / IMU terminals, roadside video detection equipment, or millimeter-wave radar systems, and after unified time synchronization and coordinate transformation, it forms trajectory samples that can be directly used for modeling.

[0028] First, Savitzky-Golay smoothing filters were used to eliminate position and velocity noise from the original position and velocity signals. Then, a 0.1s sliding window was used to calculate the lateral offset of the vehicle and its relative motion with the vehicle in front. When the vehicle remained in the same lane, the absolute value of the lateral offset with the same vehicle in front was less than 0.3m, and the relative distance was less than 100m within a window of at least 3s, it was identified as a car-following event segment. When the cumulative lateral displacement of the vehicle exceeded half the width of the lane and the lane number changed, and the peak lateral velocity was greater than 0.3m / s, it was classified as a lane-changing event segment. Segments of less than 5s were discarded to ensure the stability and representativeness of the subsequent modeling samples.

[0029] To facilitate model calibration and comparison for different vehicle types, the observation trajectories for different vehicles are specified as follows: , , , Unified representation as , for Observe vehicle kinematic parameters at all times, such as front-to-back distance. ,speed Longitudinal acceleration lateral acceleration Lateral offset wait.

[0030] The above methods can be used to obtain structured and noise-suppressed multi-source fusion vehicle trajectory data, providing a reliable input basis for risk field calculation, longitudinal car-following modeling, and lateral lane-changing modeling.

[0031] Specifically, the data collection in this embodiment includes vehicle position, speed, acceleration, lateral offset, lane number, distance between vehicles, environmental conditions of surrounding traffic participants (including motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles, and pedestrians), as well as road geometry, traffic signs, traffic flow composition, weather and lighting conditions.

[0032] Furthermore, the process of constructing a two-dimensional risk field and calculating the real-time perceived risk value for each vehicle includes: A double-elliptical two-dimensional risk field is established with the center of mass of the main vehicle as the origin. The repulsive forces of the main vehicle on each potential conflict source around it are superimposed to obtain the overall risk value. Calculate the repulsive force of the main vehicle to each conflict source. The repulsive force includes the influence of the relative position in the lateral and longitudinal directions, vehicle mass, and risk perception judgment differential parameters. Different risk perception judgment parameters are set according to vehicle type. The overall risk value is weighted to obtain the differentiated risk perception result, which is used as the input parameter for subsequent longitudinal and lateral behavior models.

[0033] Furthermore, this embodiment proposes differentiated modeling of longitudinal models and risk perception for different vehicles in mixed traffic flow: it introduces a risk function with the driver's two-dimensional risk perception field as the core, and uses independent risk perception parameters as driving behavior parameters for different types of vehicles. Specifically, this embodiment models the risk perception characteristics of different types of vehicles in mixed traffic scenarios. By establishing a two-dimensional psycho-physical risk field with double ellipses based on the vehicle's centroid, the real-time risk perception level of the vehicle is calculated, and this risk level is used as the input parameter for subsequent longitudinal and lateral behavior models.

[0034] The basic construction process of the risk field includes: based on the unified modeling concept of driving psychology and physical kinematics, a double-elliptical risk field is established on a two-dimensional plane with the vehicle's center of mass as the reference point. This risk field simultaneously considers physical risk factors (i.e., spatial distance and relative speed between vehicles) and psychological risk factors (i.e., the subjective risk sensitivity and reaction differences of the driver or automatic control system).

[0035] For any subject vehicle At any moment The level of risk is determined by all potential sources of conflict around it. The combined risk impact (including vehicles ahead, vehicles in adjacent lanes, and static obstacles) is represented as: in: For the main vehicle at time The overall risk level; The weights for different conflict sources are used to characterize the relative importance of the risk sources; The risk-repelling force of the main vehicle against each source of conflict; The number of potential conflict sources identified for the main vehicle.

[0036] Coupled modeling of physical and psychological risks includes: At the physical level, risk repulsion force This is related to physical parameters such as the relative distance, relative speed, and mass between the vehicle and the risk source; at the psychological level, different driving subjects (such as ACC, AV, HV) have different risk judgments, manifested as different perceived intensities of the same physical risk. Therefore, the repulsive force of the vehicle towards each risk source is defined as: in, Parameters that characterize the differences in risk perception judgment among ACC, AV, and HV vehicles. As a source of risk quality The main vehicle (this vehicle) quality As a source of risk Received from this vehicle The repulsive field strength.

[0037] In this embodiment, parameters Different values ​​can be taken depending on the vehicle type, for example: human-driven vehicles (HV): This indicates a relatively direct risk assessment; Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) vehicles: This indicates relatively stable perception but a slightly delayed response; Autonomous Vehicles (AVs): This indicates a smoother decision-making process but lower risk sensitivity.

[0038] Furthermore, the psychophysical field strength experienced by the risk source This can be further broken down into the sum of physical risk and psychological weight: The first item is the distance attenuation item, which reflects the impact of physical spatial distance on risk perception; the second item is the time to collision (the ratio of distance to relative vehicle speed), which reflects the urgency of potential conflict; and the third item is the psychological orientation item, which reflects the differences in driver perception of targets at different azimuth angles. Let be the weighting coefficient, satisfying ; These are the distance, time, and azimuth attenuation constants, respectively. This refers to the azimuth angle of the risk source relative to the direction of travel of the main vehicle. When the risk source is outside the driver's field of vision (e.g., ... The psychological perception item is set to 0, and only the physical risk effect is retained.

[0039] Risk field output and differentiated results: Through the above calculations, the risk level of the main vehicle at any time can be obtained. The results were then weighted according to vehicle type to obtain differentiated perception results: Risk level This serves as the risk perception input parameter for the vehicle in subsequent longitudinal following model and lateral lane-changing model.

[0040] Among them, high-risk values ​​correspond to an increased perceived danger situation for the driver, which manifests as a stronger tendency to decelerate in the longitudinal model and a reduced willingness to change lanes or a delayed execution of lane changes in the lateral model.

[0041] The psychophysical risk field model constructed in this step can calculate the risk level of each vehicle in real time with a time resolution of 0.1 s, comprehensively reflecting the driver's spatial safety distance, potential conflict time, and psychological sensitivity. This model retains the determinism of physical constraints while reflecting the subjective differences in driving behavior, providing a unified quantitative indicator for subsequent longitudinal and lateral behavior modeling based on risk perception.

[0042] Furthermore, the process of constructing a risk-decision coupled longitudinal behavioral model includes: Calculate the basic longitudinal acceleration based on the relative distance and speed difference between the vehicle and the vehicle in front, as well as the vehicle's speed; and construct the basic longitudinal motion function based on the basic longitudinal acceleration. Establish a risk perception correction function, which takes the real-time perceived risk value as input and outputs a risk correction term. The basic longitudinal action function and the risk perception correction function are coupled to generate the final longitudinal acceleration command, and the longitudinal following behavior is dynamically adjusted through risk perception.

[0043] Furthermore, the process of constructing the longitudinal car-following model for mixed traffic flow in this embodiment includes: For ACC vehicles, AV vehicles, and HV vehicles, a risk perception-decision coupling longitudinal model is adopted. The risk perception of different vehicles is placed in advance and combined with the basic decision model to jointly construct the longitudinal behavior output of the vehicle. Specifically, the risk perception parameters are placed in advance in the behavior decision, driving the longitudinal acceleration and deceleration action decision, thereby completing the risk-decision coupling longitudinal behavior output.

[0044] Specifically, longitudinal following models are constructed for ACC, AV, and HV vehicles, respectively, in which risk perception parameters are incorporated into behavioral decision-making. The model uses a basic longitudinal action function. Risk perception-decision mapping function coupling.

[0045] This embodiment uses an independent risk perception parameter. This describes the perception process of different vehicle types, coupled with the action execution process described by the conventional vehicle car-following model. It can be represented as: in, For vehicles in longitudinal acceleration at time t, For the basic vertical action function, Characterize the impact of risk perception on the final action execution. For the risk-decision mapping effect parameters, To characterize the coupling relationship between basic longitudinal actions and the impact of risk perception.

[0046] After the model is built, it is necessary to use the extracted ACC, AV, and HV vehicle trajectories. , , It can contain time series of multiple observation indicators. The risk perception-decision coupling longitudinal model of ACC, AV and HV vehicles is calibrated. The longitudinal behavior and lateral behavior are calibrated separately. The longitudinal and lateral behaviors are calibrated using a single objective, and the longitudinal and lateral behavior parameter sets are obtained.

[0047] More specifically, the basic vertical action function is established: The basic longitudinal motion function adopts the IDM form to describe the vehicle's motion based on the relative distance. Speed ​​difference and its own speed Longitudinal acceleration behavior: in: This is the maximum acceleration; For the desired speed; The speed index (usually taken as 4); The desired safe distance; Minimum following distance; To anticipate the time difference; Reduce speed for comfort.

[0048] Risk perception correction function established: To demonstrate the impact of risk perception on longitudinal decision-making, this invention outputs the risk field. A car-following model is introduced, and acceleration is dynamically adjusted through a risk correction function. It is defined as follows: In the formula, The sensitivity coefficient for the IDM term. and These represent the sensitivity coefficients when the driver's risk level is below and above the expected risk level, respectively. and The acceleration coefficients are those for when the driver's risk level is below and above the expected risk level. and This is the risk impact coefficient. This represents the driver's expected risk value. and The separate representation is for better explanation of the model mechanism; during calibration, it can be regarded as a whole. Perform calibration.

[0049] Longitudinal car-following model parameter calibration: Using the results obtained in step S1 , , Trajectory data is used to calibrate longitudinal risk-decision coupling models for various vehicle types. The calibration objective is to minimize the model output margin. Measured distance The mean square error between them is expressed as: In the formula, The optimal set of parameters determined by calibration. For the number of observation points, The relative mean square percentage error of the spacing is used. A genetic algorithm is selected for calibration.

[0050] Furthermore, the process of constructing a risk-behavior coupled lane-changing decision-making model includes: Based on real-time perceived risk values ​​and traffic state variables of the current lane and the target lane, a discrete choice model is used to calculate the probability of a vehicle's willingness to change lanes. When the probability of lane change intention reaches a preset threshold, the gap acceptance probability is calculated based on the gap status in front and behind the target lane, the speed difference, and the real-time perceived risk value. When the probability of accepting the gap exceeds the execution threshold, a lane-changing action is triggered. At the same time, the safety constraints are adaptively adjusted based on the real-time perceived risk value to suppress lane-changing behavior in high-risk scenarios.

[0051] Furthermore, the process of constructing the lateral lane-changing model for mixed traffic flow vehicles in this embodiment includes: Considering the impact of risk perception on vehicle lane-changing decisions, risks in the two-dimensional plane are incorporated into the lane-changing decision models of different vehicles. The decision-making behavior parameters of different vehicles are different to characterize the differences in lane-changing behavior. This embodiment constructs a lateral lane-changing model. In the two key sub-processes of lane-changing intention generation and lane-changing gap selection, the two-dimensional plane risk value is used as one of the decision inputs. Different vehicles exhibit heterogeneous lane-changing behaviors based on their risk perception sensitivity, lane-changing cost and other behavioral parameters.

[0052] More specifically, with independent risk perception parameters The perception process of different types of vehicles is described and coupled with the action execution process described by the conventional vehicle car-following model. The lateral lane-changing behavior decision sub-model further includes the following steps: Based on the calculations for each vehicle At any moment The risk value in the two-dimensional plane is used as one of the input factors in the lane change motivation generation stage and the lane change gap selection stage, so that the vehicle's lane change decision depends not only on traditional traffic state variables, but also on the perceived safety / risk characteristics. The motivation generation stage for free lane changing uses a discrete choice model (Logit model) to calculate vehicle... willingness to change lanes The utility function of the model includes risk variables. and vehicle behavior parameters Each vehicle can have different risk avoidance sensitivities, thus modeling heterogeneous lane-changing behavior; After the motivation generation stage, if Once the trigger threshold is reached, the lane change clearance selection phase begins. In this phase, the clearance status in front of and behind the target lane, speed difference, and risk value are considered. and behavioral parameters Common input gap acceptance model, calculate gap acceptance probability The formula explicitly shows the impact of risk variables on the probability of accepting the gap, thereby realizing a risk-behavior coupled lane-changing decision-making process; when When the set execution threshold is exceeded, a lane-changing action is triggered. At the same time, a safety lower limit that adapts to risk (such as minimum TTC / maximum deceleration constraint) is set to ensure that lane-changing is suppressed in high-risk scenarios.

[0053] More specifically, this embodiment constructs a lateral lane-changing behavior model under mixed traffic flow conditions, comprehensively considering the vehicle's traffic state, risk perception level, and behavioral differences, by introducing a risk perception value. The system comprises two key sub-modules: lane-changing motivation generation and gap selection, enabling a two-layer coupled decision-making process between risk and behavior. Specifically, it includes the following sub-steps: Motivation generation (Logit structure): For lane changing behavior, vehicles At any moment The lane-changing intention is described using a Logit model based on discrete choice theory: in, For vehicles At any moment The utility function is defined as: in, The coefficients to be calibrated in the model. The speed difference between the vehicle in front and the vehicle in front in the current lane. The duration for which this vehicle remains at a low speed (lower than the speed of the vehicle in front) in the current lane. Let be the average speed of vehicles in adjacent lanes within the target lane. Therefore... This reflects the potential for increased speed when changing lanes. For vehicles The risk level of the current lane. If changing lanes to the target lane, the risk value (or estimated risk) is calculated based on the traffic conditions in the target lane. These are vehicle behavior characteristic parameters (e.g., sensitivity to lane-changing intentions, conservative / aggressive type).

[0054] Gap selection: Define "total clearance" This refers to the available headroom (or distance) between vehicles in front and behind the target lane. Define the "critical gap". For vehicles The minimum acceptable gap can be expressed as: in, , The speed difference between this vehicle and the vehicle in front / behind in the target lane This represents the current risk value of the vehicle (or the estimated risk for the target lane). For the random error term (usually assumed to follow a normal or log-normal distribution), when If the vehicle accepts the gap, it will change lanes; otherwise, it will refuse or wait for the next gap.

[0055] Risk constraints: To ensure driving safety in high-risk scenarios, this invention introduces a risk-adaptive safety constraint mechanism into the lane-changing execution logic. When At higher levels (e.g.) The model automatically increases the minimum safe clearance or time required for lane changing to the collision lower limit. The specific constraints are as follows: in The basic safety threshold (typically 2.0s) is used. This is the risk amplification factor (taken as 1 to 2).

[0056] Model calibration and output: Based on the extracted lane-change event segments, the parameters of the above-mentioned motivation generation model and gap acceptance model are calibrated respectively. The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method is used, with the actual lane-change occurrence as a binary response variable (0–1), to fit the parameter set: The calibration results are stored in the horizontal behavior database of the simulation platform.

When the simulation is running, the real-time perceived risk value of all vehicles is updated sequentially at each time step, the longitudinal motion state is updated according to the longitudinal behavior model, and the lateral lane change behavior is judged and executed according to the lane change decision model. The process is iterated until the simulation ends. Meanwhile, key operational indicators, including vehicle speed, traffic flow, density, lane change frequency, and risk exposure level, are recorded and calculated during the simulation process.

The module can set at least three penetration rate combinations: Pure HV vehicle scenario: ACC / AV ratio = 0%, all vehicles are traditionally driven by humans; Mixed penetration scenario: ACC / AV ratio = 10%-50%, the rest are HV vehicles; High automation penetration scenario: ACC / AV ratio ≥ 50%, representing traffic flow dominated by automated vehicles.

In a mixed penetration scenario, the ratio of high-level adaptive cruise control vehicles to autonomous driving vehicles is 10% to 50%. In scenarios with high automation penetration, the proportion of high-level adaptive cruise vehicles and autonomous vehicles should not be less than 50%.
