AUTOMATED METHOD TO DETECT ROAD USER FRUSTRATION DUE TO AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE DRIVING BEHAVIOR

Systems and methods are provided for detecting road user frustration due to autonomous vehicle driving behavior. An autonomous vehicle fleet can leverage information about typical road user behavior to create an index measuring the frustration level of other road users and/or likeability of autonomous vehicle behavior by other road users. Additionally, perception algorithms associated with sound detection and tracking can define human characteristics associated with frustrated drivers or other road users.
