Measuring Similarity of Interactive Driving Behaviors Using Matrix Profile
Understanding multi-vehicle interactive behaviors with temporal sequential observations is crucial for autonomous vehicles to make appropriate decisions in an uncertain traffic environment. On-demand similarity measures are significant for autonomous vehicles to deal with massive interactive driving behaviors by clustering and classifying diverse scenarios. This paper proposes a general approach for measuring spatiotemporal similarity of interactive behaviors using a multivariate matrix profile technique. The key attractive features of the approach are its superior space and time complexity, real-time online computing for streaming traffic data, and possible capability of leveraging hardware for parallel computation. The proposed approach is validated through automatically discovering similar interactive driving behaviors at intersections from sequential data.
