Abstract

The influence of driver's physiological and psychological factors on traffic safety is represented greatly as driver's propensity, namely the driver's psychological experience toward traffic condition and the corresponding preference of driver's decisions and behaviors under the influence of all dynamic factors. It reflects driver's psychological emotional states in the process of vehicle operation and movement. It is essential to the research of driver-assistance and active safety warning systems and also an important concept for traffic flow theory, especially driving behavior. Driver's propensity is taken as the study object in this paper, physiological and psychological parameters are obtained through analyzing their influencing factors from the related experiments designed. Gray relation entropy analysis method is adopted to extract and sort the principal factors of physiology and psychology, and the influencing factors sequence of driving propensity is obtained. The results provide a good basis for further study of the driver's propensity prediction.
