description In complex real-world traffic environments, the task of automatic lane changing becomes extremely challenging for vehicle control systems. Traditional control methods often lack the flexibility and intelligence to accurately capture and respond to dynamic changes in traffic flow. Therefore, developing intelligent control strategies that can accurately predict the behavior of surrounding vehicles and make corresponding adjustments is crucial. This paper presents an intelligent driving control scheme for autonomous vehicles (AVs) based on a responsibility-sensitive safety (RSS) tracking control mechanism within a Bayesian network intelligent learning framework. Initially, the Bayesian evidence construction method for vehicle lane changing scenarios is studied. Using this method, prior probability tables for lane-hanging vehicles are constructed, and the Bayesian formula is applied to predict the lane changing probabilities of surrounding vehicles. Subsequently, an optimal control method is employed to integrate Bayesian lane changing probabilities into the design of performance indices and auxiliary systems, transforming tracking and safety avoidance tasks into an optimization control problem. Additionally, a critic learning optimal control algorithm is developed to determine the control law. Finally, the proposed tracking control scheme is validated through simulations, demonstrating its reliability and effectiveness.
