Jae Hyung LIM - Canton MI, US

International Classification:

B60W 50/00
G06F 16/2457
G06N 20/00

Abstract:

A system for a vehicle includes a memory configured to store modeling parameters, generated using an algorithm that assigns relevance scores to features, that specify information indicative of how configuration data including information indicative of use of features of the vehicle classifies which user is currently using the vehicle. The system also includes a processor programmed to monitor the vehicle for the configuration data, identify a most likely user profile using the modeling parameters according to the configuration data, and apply settings of the user profile to the vehicle.

International Classification:

B60R 16/037
H04L 29/08
B60R 25/25
B60R 25/30

Abstract:

A system includes a processor configured to receive a set of vehicle-specific, user-specified vehicle physical system settings for a first vehicle. The processor is also configured to use a known first vehicle physical configuration to convert the system settings into user-centric settings, representing at least spacing between physical components achieved in the first vehicle by the user-specified settings. The processor is further configured to save the converted user-centric settings with respect to a user profile.
