An automated vehicle (AV) is configured to perform automated travel, and includes vehicle sensors configured to detect a second vehicle in a surrounding environment of the AV. The AV includes at least one of a brake mechanism, an accelerator mechanism, a steering control, and a user interface configured to generate a user response to automated travel by the AV. The AV includes a computing device configured to identify an interaction between the AV and the second vehicle while executing an automated travel path, and receive user responses to automated travel by the AV. The computing device is configured to determine at least one aspect of wellbeing, trust, and satisfaction of the user riding the AV based on the user responses, and determine a learned optimal policy which increases the at least one aspect of wellbeing, trust, and satisfaction based on the user responses.

System and method for autonomated vehicle travel

A vehicle simulation system includes a control mechanism that is actuated by a user to control a vehicle in a simulation, and a plurality of sensors that generate a multimodal signal. The multimodal signal indicates a state of the user during the simulation. The vehicle simulation system also includes at least one processor that receives the multimodal signal from the plurality of sensors, develops a workload model based on the multimodal signal using a machine learning algorithm, and determines a workload experienced by the user based on the multimodal signal and the workload model.
