Abstract

Systems and methods for evaluating driving performance for a given driver/user of a motor vehicle, and automatically modifying the operation of one or more vehicle systems based on the evaluated driving performance. Driving performance may be inferred from input from one or more sensors. The sensor input may be fed to a machine learning classifier, which predicts a corresponding 'driving skill level,' such as “Beginner,” “Intermediate,” or “Advanced.” Using the predicted driving skill level, the performance of vehicle systems may be modified to improve safety and/or driver experience.
