AI summary

A method for determining driving parameters includes: acquiring driving data of a driver; extracting driving features of the driver based on the driving data, where the driving features include first operation frequency of a first component of a vehicle and second operation frequency of a second component of the vehicle; determining, based on the driving features, a first probability that the driver has a first driving style and a second probability that the driver has a second driving style; and determining the driving parameters based on the first probability and the second probability, where the driving parameters include at least longitudinal acceleration and longitudinal deceleration. The method can dynamically adjust automated driving parameters to meet the driving style of the driver, thereby effectively improving user experience.
