EEG-based system decodes passenger hazard perception for autonomous vehicles

Researchers have developed a new framework using electroencephalography (EEG) to decode passenger cognitive states for enhanced safety in highly automated vehicles. This system, called the Passenger Cognitive Model (PCM), integrates a 3D Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network (3D-CRNN) to predict risks and identify dangers by analyzing passenger neural responses. The framework demonstrated strong performance, achieving a balanced accuracy of 95.3% in risk prediction and improving danger identification accuracy to 85.0%. The system also showed promising generalizability across different sessions and subjects, suggesting its potential for auxiliary supervision in future autonomous vehicle decision-making and safety functionalities.
