A METHOD FOR QUANTIFYING VEHICLE PATH FOLLOWING PERFORMANCE

A method for quantifying vehicle path following performance, the method comprising; obtaining samples of path following performance (I), selecting a subset of the path following performance samples such that the selected samples follow a pre-determined statistical extreme value distribution, parameterizing the pre-determined statistical extreme value distribution based on the selected samples of path following performance, and quantifying vehicle path following performance based on the parameterized statistical extreme value distribution.
