Abstract
In case of considering human-machine systems such as robots, vehicles, etc., it is required to take care of not only human intelligence but also human skill. In this research, racing kart driving is taken as an example of the human-machine systems, and a simulation model of racing kart driving, with respect to a driving agent, is designed. In designing a driving agent, ways of realizing the manner of information processing by human driving on a certain granularity and also representing the factors characterizing the humanness of information processing are newly designed and implemented. Through some computational experiments as well as the actual ones, it is confirmed that the proposed model has a good representation of actual driving, and that the model has a potential for reproducing a variety of driving behaviors including beginners' and experienced drivers' ones.
