Abstract

Identifying risky driving behavior is of central importance for increasing traffic safety. This paper tackles the task of analyzing real (naturalistic) driving data captured by in-vehicle sensors using interpretable data science methods. In particular, we focus on symbolic time-series abstraction and the subsequent behavioral profile identification using topic modeling approaches. For our experiments, we utilize a real-world dataset. Our results indicate interesting behavioral driving profiles including important patterns and factors for traffic safety modeling.
