Abstract
A system and method for predicting a driver's situational awareness that includes receiving driving scene data associated with a driving scene of an ego vehicle and eye gaze data to track a driver's eye gaze behavior with respect to the driving scene. The system and method also include analyzing the eye gaze data and determining an eye gaze fixation value associated with each object that is located within the driving scene and analyzing the driving scene data and determining a situational awareness probability value associated with each object that is located within the driving scene that is based on a salience, effort, expectancy, and a cost value associated with each of the objects within the driving scene. The system and method further include communicating control signals to electronically control at least one component based on the situational awareness probability value and the eye gaze fixation value.
