To negotiate the safety and liability concerns of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs), manufacturers desire AVs to conform to traffic laws and regulations with auto-reasoning capabilities and the ability to detect passengers’ misbehaviour. Our study focuses on formalising regulations for AVs based on Temporal Deontic Defeasible Logic (TDDL). We adopt a directed obligation to introduce the person in charge of events that can differ from the event executor.

摘要

To negotiate the safety and liability concerns of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs), manufacturers desire AVs to conform to traffic laws and regulations with auto-reasoning capabilities and the ability to detect passengers’ misbehaviour. Our study focuses on formalising regulations for AVs based on Temporal Deontic Defeasible Logic (TDDL). We adopt a directed obligation to introduce the person in charge of events that can differ from the event executor. We also relax the time intervals from bounded to right-open to enable AVs to conduct auto-reasoning even without knowing when events end. Based on the modified deontic and temporal features, a Right-Open TDDL (RTDDL) is developed. The UK Highway Code is selected to illustrate the proposed RTDDL to ensure the behaviours of AVs obey traffic laws in complex traffic scenarios.
