Explainable AI Algorithm for Driving Decision-Making

Key Features

  1. Implicit visual-semantic module captures the region-based action-inducing components (implicit visual semantics) to provide a human-understandable explanation;
  2. Explicit reasoning module is developed to jointly align the human-annotated explanation and intention prediction in a multi-task fashion.

Key Features

  1. Multi-head-attention-based self-learning scene graph;
  2. Adjustable balance between global and local features, which determines automatic and human-guided feature weighting.

  • Action prediction accuracy is optimal at balanced λ;
  • Explanation accuracy always increases.
