Abstract
En 中文
Accurately predicting driver attention is crucial for enhancing advanced driving assistance systems and autonomous vehicles, attracting increasing research interest. Most existing approaches, rooted in general, task-free saliency detection, adopt data-driven paradigms to correlate bottom-up environmental situations with attention distributions. However, they often overlook the complex top-down task-driven aspects of driver attention that are fundamental for the safe navigation of driving tasks, leading to limitations in handling real-world scenarios. In this paper, we take an initial step to explore and introduce BKnet, a Behavior-aware Knowledge-embedded model that innovatively integrates driving behaviors and empirical knowledge. Specifically, inspired by the human long-term cognitive process, we introduce a novel knowledge memory mechanism. It dynamically associates varied traffic scenarios with consistent driving behaviors, fostering the generation of robust behavior-aware empirical knowledge representations. To this end, BKnet facilitates a nuanced and comprehensive simulation of drivers’ attention mechanisms, driven synergistically by both top-down and bottom-up processes. Additionally, we further contribute to the field by collecting a novel Behavior-Aware Driver Attention (BADA) dataset. To the best of our knowledge, BADA is the first attention dataset explicitly incorporated into real-world driving behavior tasks from multiple drivers. Lastly, comprehensive experiments underscore BKnet’s superiority over existing state-of-the-art approaches and validate the effectiveness and necessity of integrating behavior-aware knowledge into driver attention prediction.
