Self-driving revolution hampered by a lack of accurate simulations of human behavior

Algorithms that accurately reflect the behavior of road users — vital for the safe roll out of driverless vehicles — are still not available, warn scientists. They say there is ‘formidable complexity’ in developing software that can predict the way people behave and interact on the roads, be they pedestrians, motorists or bike riders. To improve the modelling, a research team has developed a simulation of how people behave on the roads based on key cognitive theories.
