Influence diagrams for the optimization of a vehicle speed profile. (arXiv:1511.09300v1 [cs.AI])

Influence diagrams are decision theoretic extensions of Bayesian networks. They are applied to diverse decision problems. In this paper we apply influence diagrams to the optimization of a vehicle speed profile. We present results of computational experiments in which an influence diagram was used to optimize the speed profile of a Formula 1 race car at the Silverstone F1 circuit. The computed lap time and speed profiles correspond well to those achieved by test pilots. An extended version of our model that considers a more complex optimization function and diverse traffic constraints is currently being tested onboard a testing car by a major car manufacturer. This paper opens doors for new applications of influence diagrams.
