  3. 17. Estimating eco-friendly driving behavior in various traffic situations, using machine learning

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Ludvig Fors; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine learning; transformers; neural networks; casual inference; K-Means; driver behavior; fuel consumption;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates how various driver signals, signals that a truck driver can interact with, influences fuel consumption and what are the optimal values of these signals in various traffic conditions. More specifically, the objective is to estimate good driver behavior in various traffic conditions and compare bad driver behavior in similar situations to see how performing a specific driver action, changing a driver signal from the bad driver value to the corresponding good driver value impacts the fuel consumption.
