Abstract
The route prediction system according to the invention includes a measurement unit to measure an area including a host vehicle and other moving vehicles, a vehicle detection unit to detect the host vehicle and at least two of the surrounding vehicles having collision possibilities on the basis of observation results observed by the observation unit, a hypothesis generation unit to generate plural hypotheses for the at least two of the surrounding vehicles detected by the vehicle detection unit to avoid collision, a likelihood calculation unit to calculate a likelihood indicating probability of occurrence of each of the plural hypotheses generated by the hypothesis generation unit, and a predicted route analysis unit to analyze, on the basis of the likelihood calculated by the likelihood calculation unit, predicted routes of the at least two of the surrounding vehicles, and output the analysis result. With such a configuration, in a case where plural vehicles may collide in future, predicted routes of the plural surrounding vehicles can be calculated without contradiction, improving performance on predicting the routes of the surrounding vehicles.
