METHOD AND A SYSTEM FOR RUN-TIME OPERATIONAL MONITORING OF AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

A method and system for controlling a vehicle are provided. The method comprises: in parallel to a first processing pipeline for controlling the vehicle, executing a risk management processing pipeline comprising: acquiring first monitoring data from a first monitoring source used in first processing pipeline; acquiring second monitoring data from a second monitoring source used in the first processing pipeline; generating a cumulative risk assessment value based on a combination of the first monitoring data and the second monitoring data; in response to the cumulative risk assessment value being above a pre-determined main threshold, generating a warning notification; and in response to a frequency of occurrence of the generating the warning notification being above a pre-determined frequency threshold, triggering, independently from the first processing pipeline, a remedial action to be performed by the vehicle. The present technology may allow increasing safety of operation of the vehicle.
