Generalized two-point visual control model of human steering for accurate state estimation
We derive and validate a generalization of the two-point visual control model, an accepted cognitive science model for human steering behavior. The generalized model is needed as current steering models are either insufficiently accurate or too complex for online state estimation. We demonstrate that the generalized model replicates specific human steering behavior with high precision (85\% reduction in modeling error) and integrate this model into a human-as-advisor framework where human steering inputs are used for state estimation. As a benchmark study, we use this framework to decipher ambiguous lane markings represented by biased lateral position measurements. We demonstrate that, with the generalized model, the state estimator can accurately estimate the true vehicle state, providing lateral state estimates with under 0.25 m error on average across participants. However, without the generalized model, the estimator cannot accurately estimate the vehicle's lateral state.

Analysis of human steering behavior differences in human-in-control and autonomy-in-control driving
Steering models (such as the generalized two-point model) predict human steering behavior well when the human is in direct control of a vehicle. In vehicles under autonomous control, human control inputs are not used; ra…
