Further Information

Automated, cooperative vehicles have to make decisions in road traffic in a highly dynamic, interacting and incompletely perceptible environment. Previous attempts are usually limited to situation assessment from an egocentric perspective, without taking cooperation aspects into account, or interactions between other road users.

TASKS

For the prediction and planning of cooperative driving maneuvers, a procedure is to be developed in this thesis, which takes into account the interdependencies of the individual traffic participants, as well as modeling the system states probabilistically.

WE OFFER

• An interdisciplinary research environment with partners from science and industry
