METHOD AND SYSTEM IN A VEHICLE FOR IMPROVING PREDICTION RESULTS OF AN ADVANTAGEOUS DRIVER ASSISTANT SYSTEM

The invention regards a method for improving prediction results of advanced driver assistance systems of a vehicle comprising the steps of - obtaining a map data including information about at least a road geometry in a proximity of the vehicle (S2), - assigning a sensor means for sensing a surrounding of the vehicle and being mounted on the vehicle a position and orientation in the map (S1) - generating a virtual sensing means output that corresponds to an output of the sensing means if the sensing means sensed the scene defined by the information included in the map data from the assigned position and with the orientation, wherein the generation is based on a mathematical model of the sensing means (S3), - sensing the surrounding of the vehicle and generating a sensing means output (S4) - comparing the sensing means output and the virtual sensing means output (S5) - modifying parameters of the mathematical model, generating the virtual sensing means output and comparing it with the sensing means output until a predetermined degree of fit is achieved (S1), - combining map data with information derived from the sensing means output to generate combined information on the surrounding of the vehicle (S8) - outputting the combined information for further processing in an advanced driver assistance system (S9); and a vehicle configured to perform these method steps.
