Abstract
The disclosure describes various embodiments for detecting an unexpected control state of an autonomous driving system. According to an embodiment, an exemplary method of detecting an unexpected control state of an autonomous driving system include the operations of generating environmental data of a vehicle; determining, by the autonomous driving system, a first control state based on the environmental data of the vehicle; determining, by a reference model, a second control state based on the environmental data, wherein the reference model defines at least one scenario each corresponding to a plurality of expected control states and a state switching condition, and in each of the expected control states corresponding to the scenario, an action of the vehicle in the scenario obeys a traffic rule; and determining the unexpected control state of the autonomous driving system by comparing the first control state with the second control state.
