A driving posture prediction method based on driver comfort

In this study, a driving posture prediction method was proposed based on the feeling of driving comfort. At the first, independent variables and dependent variables were selected. Secondly, fuzzy theory was introduced to depict the driver's feeling of comfort, and then a model was built to assess the relation between design parameters and comfort assessment based on fuzzy SVM. At last, the development of a driver posture is taken as an example in this study
