METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MANAGING AN AUTOMATED DRIVING SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE

The present disclosure relates to methods and system for managing an Automated Driving System of a vehicle. Moreover, the disclosure presents a use of statistical modelling that is utilized to determine if the conditions and/or requirements of the operational design domain (ODD) are met, whereby the ADS validity may be determined. In more detail, the present disclosure relates to the utilization of nearby vehicles' ADSs to reciprocally share their locally updated statistical models. If the statistical models, from the two ADS, collectively show that the baseline statistical model is not valid at this point in time the appropriate actions from each ADS can be taken.
