Abstract:

Lane changes are challenging maneuvers and represent an important component of traffic research. Significant efforts have been spent on lane change related research, and various models have been developed to study lane change behavior from different perspectives. In order to identify lane change maneuvers from time series data, researchers have been using different lane change definitions and identification methods, which makes the conclusions drawn from their research dependent on the author’s choice of definition or method. This article reviews lane change definitions and a collection of identification methods, provides a summary of the existing literature and offers information relevant to the selection of a definition or identification method.
