Abstract
A system and method for predicting whether a driver of a host vehicle or a remote vehicle intends to make a left or right turn or travel straight through an intersection before the host vehicle or remote vehicle reaches the intersection that relies on a probability model that employs a dynamic Bayesian network. The method includes obtaining a plurality of environmental cues that identify external parameters at or around the intersection, where the environmental cues include position and velocity of the remote vehicle, and obtaining a plurality of host vehicle cues that define operation of the host vehicle. The method then predicts the turning intent of the host vehicle and/or remote vehicle at the intersection using the model based on both the external cues and the vehicle cues using the model. The model can use learned information about previous driver turns at the intersection.
