Abstract

While driving, stress and frustration can affect safe driving and pose the risk of causing traffic accidents. Therefore, it is important to control the driver’s anxiety level in order to improve the driving experience. In this paper, we propose and implement an intelligent system based on fuzzy logic (FL) for deciding the driver’s anxiety level (DAL). In order to investigate the effects of the considered parameters and compare the evaluation results, we implement two models: DAL Model 1 (DALM1) and DAL Model 2 (DALM2). The input parameters of DALM1 include driving experience (DE), in-car environment conditions (IECs), and driver age (DA), while for DALM2, we add a new parameter called the accident anxiety state (AAS). For both models, the output parameter is DAL. We carried out many simulations and compared the results of DALM1 and DALM2. The evaluation results show that the DAL is very good for drivers’ ages between 30 to 50 years old. However, when the driver’s age is below 30 or above 50, DAL tends to decline. With an increase in DE and IECs, the DAL value is decreased. But when the AAS is increased, the DAL is increased. DALM2 is more complex because the rule base is larger than DALM1, but it makes a better decision of DAL value.
