Crash Scene Re-Generation Using Structural Hidden Markov Models

The National Transportation Safety Board has recommended that Automobile Manufacturers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration work cooperatively to gather information on automotive crashes, using collision sensing and recording devices. [National Transportation Safety Board Symposium On Recorders]

1 - Problem Statement

Current crash scene re-generating methods lack the capabilities of searching for component structural information of the sequence of events preceding the collision, where design problems are not revealed efficiently & early enough.

Design Defects Scene (Roll Over)

2 - Drawbacks1 – Heavily based on assumptions2 – Inaccurate & time-consuming3 – Might lead to wrong conclusions4 – Does not reveal design defects5 – Diverts focus from core problem

5 – The Structured Hidden Markov Models Approach:

The sequence that describes the entire pattern (S) is explained by a single Hidden Markov Model (Oi) which represents the Component Status Sequence.

This hidden Markov model is extended to contain structural information that are embedded within the pattern.

The contribution of each component to the entire pattern is evaluated. These components are merged together to describe the structure of this pattern.

State Sequence representing State of the

Vehicle, Monitored by Sensor Network

Structured HMM containing structural

Information

Component Observation Sequence

Sequence describing the entire pattern

5 – Re-Generating the Crash Sequence using SHMM:

Probability Evaluation:

Predicting the scene represented by the classified sequence, captured by the sensor network:

The evaluation problem in SHMM consists of evaluating the probability for the model

λ = (π;A; B; S;D), to produce the sequence O. is expressed as:

State Decoding:

The state decoding problem consists of determining the optimal state sequence:

Find the best structural sequence that led into this scene class, that best esplains the sequence:

Structure Decoding:

The structural decoding problem consists of determining the optimal structure sequence:

Parameter Re-estimation:In the structural HMM paradigm, a forward-backward maximization algorithm to re-estimate the parameters contained in the model is utilized.

Current Methodologies in Generating/Analyzing crash scenes (Puzzle Construction)

Side Impact Crash Scene (Road Design Defect)

Center of mass ends up outside of the vehicle area of contact

Usually occur at intersections
