Proposal of classification method of bus operation states using sensor data

In bus companies, it is important for the operation manager to grasp operation states of the vehicle from the viewpoint of safety management and improving the operation efficiency. Currently, for allowing the operation manager to grasp operation states of the vehicle, the driver records operation states by manually operating a recorder called `Digital-tachograph'. However, operating a digital tachograph is a heavy burden to the driver. In this research, in order to solve this problem and to realize efficient operation, we propose a method for automatic classification of operation states using sensor data obtained from the buses. We implemented a classifier using Random Forest with the sensor data. The correct answer rate was 0.9 or more in each condition unless it was irregular operation.
