Intra-driver and inter-driver heterogeneity has been confirmed to exist in human driving behaviors by many studies. In this study, a joint model of the two types of heterogeneity in car-following behavior is proposed as an approach of driver profiling and identification. It is assumed that all drivers share a pool of driver states; under each state a car-following data sequence obeys a specific probability distribution in feature space; each driver has his/her own probability distribution over the states, called driver profile, which characterize the intradriver heterogeneity, while the difference between the driver profile of different drivers depict the inter-driver heterogeneity. Thus, the driver profile can be used to distinguish a driver from others. Based on the assumption, a stochastic car-following model is proposed to take both intra-driver and inter-driver heterogeneity into consideration, and a method is proposed to jointly learn parameters in behavioral feature extractor, driver states and driver profiles. Experiments demonstrate the performance of the proposed method in driver identification on naturalistic car-following data: accuracy of 82.3% is achieved in an 8-driver experiment using 10 car-following sequences of duration 15 seconds for online inference. The potential of fast registration of new drivers are demonstrated and discussed.This work is partially supported by Groupe PSA's OpenLab program (Multimodal Perception and Reasoning for Intelligent Vehicles) and the NSFC Grants 61973004.
