abstract = {The automotive industry is witnessing significant
advancements in autonomous and assisted driving functions.
However, a major challenge remains in ensuring these systems
are accepted by drivers and effectively integrated into
their driving routines. Hence, the necessity of a
comprehensive framework becomes crucial to analyze and
enhance the interaction between drivers and assisted driving
functions. In this thesis, we design and implement a driver
interaction based framework for shared lateral driving. The
research is divided into three main objectives: developing a
methodology to capture the dynamics of shared control,
constructing a driver interaction classifier, and modeling
concepts for individualized driver support. We introduce a
novel driver-steering interaction model to analyze the
interplay between driver and assistance system torques. The
model allows a comprehensive analysis of the driver torque,
the assistance torque, and their combined effect on the
vehicle's steering behavior. To accurately represent these
interactions, the driver-steering interaction model requires
the formulation of a quadratic program. We apply the Varying
Coefficient (VC) method to effectively formulate this QP. We
develop a driver interaction classifier based on a designed
real-driving experimental framework. We identify and suggest
suitable classification features: conflict and passivity,
path consistency, adaptation and individual path pattern
features. We categorize the identified driver interaction
strategies into five distinct classes: adaptation,
persistence, selective persistence, nonintervention and
uncertainty. The classification is validated through a
comparison with subjective expert assessments. Additionally,
we apply Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) to analyze the
underlying dynamics for each class. We present concepts for
adapting the system behavior in real-time to account for the
driver interaction strategies. We design a Model Predictive
Control (MPC) system and conduct a performance analysis to
ensure it aligns with desired system behavior for each
class. We apply online active-set methods and interior point
methods to solve the optimization problems in real-time. The
framework is implemented with a focus on real-world
applicability. Additionally, we suggest further concepts for
adapting the system behavior based on independent components
of the framework.},
