Vehicle Control Simulation Screening for Critical Pseudo Situations

The patent segments the simulation process into two distinct phases: a simple simulation phase using a mimic program that executes only partial control operations, and a detailed simulation phase using the full control program. This segmentation allows the system to perform multiple simulations quickly in the first phase to identify critical situations, then focus detailed simulation resources only on those critical cases, thereby maintaining accuracy while reducing overall processing time.

The patent applies preliminary action by first executing the simple simulation process with the mimic program to preliminarily identify critical situations before performing the detailed simulation. This preliminary screening step filters out non-critical scenarios, so that the computationally intensive detailed simulation is only performed on situations that require it, thus reducing total processing time while preserving accuracy for important cases.

The patent divides the simulation task into two segments: a broad but simplified simulation using the mimic program that can quickly cover many different situations, and a focused detailed simulation using the full control program. This segmentation enables the system to maintain high adaptability by covering diverse scenarios in the simple simulation phase, while improving productivity by limiting the computationally intensive detailed simulation to only critical cases identified beforehand.

The patent applies partial action by having the mimic program execute only partial control operations (such as speed control) rather than the complete control program. This partial execution allows the system to simulate a wide variety of situations with reduced computational load, achieving good coverage for screening purposes, while the full control program is applied selectively to critical situations to ensure completeness where needed.
