Abstract

A vehicle control device includes a tracking unit estimating a motion of a moving object, a model selection unit selecting a motion model corresponding to a moving object type, an abnormality determination unit determining a presence or absence of an abnormality of the estimation of the motion of the moving object based on the estimated moving object motion and the motion indicated by the motion model, and a control unit. A control mode in which the control unit controls traveling of a host vehicle when the abnormality determination unit determines that the abnormality is present differs from a control mode in which the control unit controls the traveling of the host vehicle when the abnormality determination unit determines that the abnormality is absent.

Claims (8)

1. A device for detecting a target abnormality, comprising:

a detector that detects surrounding moving objects, wherein the detector includes at least one of a camera and a radar sensor; and

an electronic control unit (ECU) including a processor programmed to:

track a moving object based on a detection result of the detector and estimate a motion of the moving object;

determine a type of the moving object;

store a plurality of motion models determined in advance for each moving object type and indicating the motion of the moving object;

select a motion model corresponding to the moving object type among the plurality of motion models; and

determine a presence or absence of an abnormality of the estimation of the motion of the moving object by comparing the motion of the moving object and the motion indicated by the selected motion model to each other for a predetermined time, wherein the predetermined time is determined based on a speed of the moving object, wherein the predetermined time is set longer as the speed of the moving object becomes faster.
