This chapter introduces an analysis process that combines the different perspectives of system decomposition with hazard analysis methods to identify the safety-related use cases and scenarios. It argues that the derived safety-related use cases and scenarios, which are the detailed instantiations of system safety requirements, serve as input to future software architectural evaluation. Furthermore, by modeling the derived safety-related use cases and scenarios into UML (Unified Modeling Language) diagrams, the authors hope that visualization of system safety requirements will not only help to enrich the knowledge of system behaviors but also provide a reusable asset to support system development and evolution.

Current standards cannot cover the safety requirements of machine learning based functions used in highly automated driving. Because of the opacity of neural networks, some self-driving functions cannot be developed following the V-model. These functions require the expansion of the standards. This paper focuses on this gap and defines functional reliability for such functions to help the future standards control the quality of machine learning based functions. As an example, reliability functions for pedestrian detection are built. Since the quality criteria in computer vision do not consider safety, new approaches for expression and evaluation of this reliability are designed.

This study examined the effect of system status presentation on driver behavior when driving with ACC and LKA, which are classified as level 2 automated driving. First, we analyzed the driving behavior of 40 test participants in a driving simulator study under three HMI conditions: without safety level, correct safety level, and incorrect safety level which does not work properly and becomes inactive. The driver behavior database constructed in this experiment, was used to quantify the accident avoidance probability under each HMI condition using the state transition probabilistic model proposed by the author in a previous study. Finally, we quantified the degree of reduction in the probability of accident occurrence when using this HMI device in consideration of the risk of malfunction based on the integrated error model proposed by the author. Based on these results, it was shown that the HMI device that acts as a real-time interface at the system safety level between the driver and the automated driving using ACC and LKA is effective in reducing traffic accidents regardless of the increased probability of traffic accidents due to malfunctions of HMI device.
