Disclosed is a noise model generation device that generates a noise model suitable for each environment by determining whether an sound source of a detection target is included in sound information collected by an sound collector with high accuracy. The noise model generation device generates a noise model relating to noise information other than the sound source of the detection target included in the sound information collected by the sound collector, which acquires a power spectrum from the sound information; determines whether the sound source of the detection target is included in the sound information collected by evaluating a probability density distribution (histogram) of the power spectrum; and generates a noise model from the collected sound information when it is determined that the sound source of the detection target is not included in the collected sound information.

In a sound source detection apparatus that detects a sound source of a detection subject on the basis of collected sounds, sounds are collected by at least one sound collector, an autocorrelation between sounds collected in time series by the sound collector is calculated, and a determination as to whether or not the sound source of the detection subject exists is made on the basis of the autocorrelation. More particularly, sounds are preferably collected respectively by two or more sound collectors such that the existence of the sound source of the detection subject is determined by determining whether or not the autocorrelations of the sounds collected by the two or more sound collectors satisfy a predetermined condition. By using the autocorrelation to detect the sound source of the detection subject in this manner, high robustness against an S/N ratio is exhibited, leading to an improved detection performance when detecting the sound source of the detection subject.

Disclosed is a driving support device that is capable of realizing driving support in consideration of a risk potential determination tendency of a driver. The driving support device is a device that estimates a risk potential that is a degree of a risk with respect to a risk target in driving of a vehicle and performs a driving support for a driver of the vehicle on the basis of the estimated risk potential, and includes: a risk potential bias setting unit that sets a risk potential bias that is a value for changing the risk potential on the basis of a risk potential determination tendency of the driver; and a risk potential estimating unit that changes the risk potential on the basis of the risk potential bias set by the risk potential bias setting unit.

A sound detection device includes two or more sound collection units disposed apart from one another, and a surrounding object detection unit configured to detect a surrounding object based on a degree of temporal fluctuation of phase information of sound signals collected by at least two of the two or more sound collection units.

A risk potential estimating device 20 of a driving support apparatus 10 calculates the risk potential of an object at each of a plurality of points which are set around a host vehicle 100. When there is a pedestrian M2 in a blind spot B caused by a pedestrian M1 in the field of view of the host vehicle 100, the risk potential estimating device 20 omits the calculation of the risk potential of the pedestrian M2. When there is the pedestrian M1 close to the host vehicle 100, first, the behavior of avoiding the pedestrian M1 is performed. Therefore, the risk potential of the pedestrian M1 may be calculated at each point. In many cases, the calculation of the risk potential of the pedestrian M2 which is located in the blind spot B caused by the pedestrian M1 and is away from the host vehicle 100 is redundant. When the calculation of the risk potential of the pedestrian M2 which is located in the blind spot B caused by the pedestrian M1 is omitted, it is possible to reduce the load of an operation for calculating the risk potential while maintaining the accuracy of calculating the risk potential around the vehicle.

The object of the invention is to provide a driving assistance device that is able to perform driving assistance considering potential risks. A device for providing driving assistance for a driver of the vehicle to avoid the object of the risk subject when driving the vehicle, which includes : an object determination unit that detects the object; a collision prediction time calculation unit that calculates a time to collision which is a time indicating a degree to which the vehicle approaches to the object; an estimated risk level determination unit that determines an estimated risk level indicating a possibility of the object moving onto a predicted travelling path of the vehicle; and a driving assistance content determination unit that determines driving assistance content based on the collision prediction time and the estimated risk level. Thereby, even in a case where the risk is not being manifested, that is, a case where the object is not present on the predicted travelling path of the vehicle C, the potential risk related to the object is considered in determining the driving assistance content. Accordingly, it is possible to provide the driving assistance considering the potential risk.
