Original Abstract Submitted

A computer-implemented method for simulating vehicle data and improving driving scenario detection is provided. The method includes retrieving, from vehicle sensors, key parameters from real data of validation scenarios to generate corresponding scenario configurations and descriptions, transferring target scenario descriptions and validation scenario descriptions to target scenario scripts and validation scenario scripts, respectively, to create first raw simulation data pertaining to target scenario descriptions and second raw simulation data pertaining to validation scenario descriptions, training, by an adjuster network, a deep neural network model to minimize differences between the first raw simulation data and the second raw simulation data, refining the first and second raw simulation data of rare driving scenarios to generate rare driving scenario training data, and outputting the rare driving scenario training data to a display screen of a computing device to enable a user to train a scenario detector for an autonomic driving assistant system.
