Subjective Logic method for runtime safety confidence updates

other · 2026-05-23

A new method uses Subjective Logic to dynamically update confidence in safety arguments by integrating design-time evidence with runtime Safety Performance Indicators (SPIs). The approach prioritizes safety responsiveness over exact Bayesian updates, increasing confidence when no violations occur and imposing prompt penalties for violations. Demonstrated on a simulation-based construction zone assist function with ML-based cone detection.
