171016 - Evaluation of Active Safety

Question 1

The Deming’s cycle explains how system development and evaluation may happen in a continuous loop to improve the system.

Answer 1

True

Question 2

A validation plan is often more comprehensive than a test plan and may include human factor issues.

Answer 2

True

Question 3

A cost-benefit analysis may be able to tell how much money society may save as the percentage of vehicles with AEB increases.

Answer 3

True

Question 4

A TRL9 system is probably on the market, a TRL2 system may not even be a prototype.

Answer 4

True

Question 5

Active safety develops by increasing the ODD and OEDR of the systems.

Answer 5

True

Question 6

As a consequence, the validation plan of a system addresses increasingly more complex and various scenarios as the system develops.

Answer 6

True

Question 7

Increasingly complex and costly test methodologies follow an active safety system development.

Answer 7

True

Question 8

Computer simulations are increasingly supporting the development and evaluation of active safety systems.

Answer 8

True

Question 9

Cooperative simulations can access the extent to which cooperative systems may impact traffic at different penetration rates.

Answer 9

True

Question 10

Counterfactual simulations can estimate the safety benefit of a new active safety system even at low TRL/MRL.

Answer 10

True

Question 11

Driver models are necessary for a counterfactual simulation if the purpose is to compare different warning strategies.

Answer 11

True

Question 12

Counterfactual simulations may help determine if a new software upgrade for active safety (or AD) is safe.

Answer 12

True

Question 13

One of the main advantages of driving simulations is the possibility to explore safety critical situation with good repeatability.

Answer 13

True

Question 14

Test tracks can expose a vehicle to different environments such as slippery road.

Answer 14

True

Question 15

The ecological validity of test-tracks and driving simulators is hard to measure and still to be proven.

Answer 15

True

Question 16

Whether test-tracks or driving simulators are the best environment for active safety development depends on the specific research questions of the study.

Answer 16

True

Question 17

Field operational test are performed as soon as a prototype is available.

Answer 17

False

Question 18

If a warning system has specificity 1, it cannot have sensitivity 1.

Answer 18

False

Question 19

If the specificity of a system is 0.5 and the sensitivity is 0.5, we can just as well flip a coin.

Answer 19

True
