Description
Summary:It is of great significance to identify dangerous driving behavior by extracting vehicle trajectory through video monitoring to ensure highway traffic safety. At present, there is no suitable method to identify dangerous driving vehicles accurately based on trajectory data. This paper aims to develop a detection algorithm for identifying dangerous driving behavior based on the road scene, which is mainly composed of imbalanced dangerous driver detection and labeling, extraction of driving behavior characteristics and the establishment of a recognition model about dangerous driving behavior. Firstly, this paper defines the risk index of the vehicle related to five types of dangerous driving behavior: dangerous following, lateral deviation, frequent acceleration and deceleration, frequent lane change, and forced insertion. Then, a variety of methods, including K-means clustering, local factor anomaly algorithm, isolation forest and OneClassSVM, are used to carry out anomaly detection on the risk indicators of drivers, and the optimal method is proposed to identify dangerous drivers. Then, the speed and acceleration of each vehicle are Fourier transformed to obtain the characteristics of the driver’s driving behavior. Finally, considering the imbalanced characteristic of the analyzed dataset with a very small proportion of dangerous drivers, this paper compares a variety of imbalanced classification algorithms to optimize the recognition performance of dangerous driving behavior. The results show that the OneClassSVM detection algorithm can be effectively applied to the identification of dangerous driving behavior. The improved Xgboost algorithm performs best for the extremely imbalanced data of dangerous drivers.
