A systematic methodology to assess subjective human perception from objective physical measurements with several industrial applications in transport and environment

摘要

This paper deals with the way to build a relationship between objective measurements (from physical sensors) and subjective assessments (expert evaluations). METRAVIB RDS has carried out several studies concerning the vibro-acoustic annoyance, the quotation of car engine combustion noise, the gear box changes comfort and, more recently, the evaluation of car drivers "workload" for automotive safety. One these latter topics, the developments could be brought up to the stage of dedicated devices, including sensors and real-time onboard processing units, respectively the so-called COMBUSTIOMETRE and the Driver Situation Recognition Unit (DSRU).
