Live Loop Decision Model

Project Summary

There are two parts to this project:

1) the binary decision - confidence score on whether to take the loop or not

2) the loop specifics - how do we take the loop (speed, when to stop, etc.)

Goal

  • We already have the pre-race determined efficiency scores for each loop; this model gives us another efficiency score which takes into account realtime data 

  • If this model produces a similar result to the pre-determined efficiency scores, then we can follow through with the pre-determined loops we would take 

  • If this model produces drastically different results from the pre-determined efficiency scores due to unforeseen factors, then can adapt and use the model with current real time data

Inputs

  • Weather

  • Manual data on current race conditions

  • Traffic

  • Road conditions

  • Braking/traction data

  • Driver input

  • Steering angle 

  • Pre-race loop model

Output

  • Confidence score 

  • Provided intervals (yes, no, and grey area for decision making)

  • How fast, and for what distance

  • When to break/stop
