• Abstract: The most common type of accident on the road is a rear-end crash. These crashes have a significant negative impact on traffic flow and are frequently fatal. To gain a more practical understanding of these scenarios, it is necessary to accurately model car following behaviors that result in rear-end crashes. Numerous studies have been carried out to model drivers' car-following behaviors; however, the majority of these studies have relied on simulated data, which may not accurately represent real-world incidents. Furthermore, most studies are restricted to modeling the ego vehicle's acceleration, which is insufficient to explain the behavior of the ego vehicle. As a result, the current study attempts to address these issues by developing an artificial intelligence framework for extracting features relevant to understanding driver behavior in a naturalistic environment. Furthermore, the study modeled the acceleration of both the ego vehicle and the leading vehicle using extracted information from NDS videos. According to the study's findings, young people are more likely to be aggressive drivers than elderly people. In addition, when modeling the ego vehicle's acceleration, it was discovered that the relative velocity between the ego vehicle and the leading vehicle was more important than the distance between the two vehicles.

  This paper introduces RACER, a cutting-edge deep learning car-following model to predict Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) driving behavior. Unlike conventional models, RACER effectively integrates Rational Driving Constraints (RDCs), crucial tenets of actual driving. RACER excels across key metrics, such as acceleration, velocity, and spacing, registering zero violations.
