Abstract
Methods, computing devices, and software programs for identifying a driving scenario in real-time driving data. A driving scenario is received and translated into an ordered sequence of events that correspond to the driving scenario. A signal computation function is determined for each event in the sequence, which quantifies proximity to the respective event. Driving data is received for a plurality of time steps. Values of each signal computation function are determined, evaluated for the driving data at each of the plurality of time steps. It is determined whether the driving scenario has occurred in the driving data based on the values of the signal computation function. A first portion of the driving data is either modified, discarded, or stored in memory based on the determination whether the driving scenario has occurred.
