  • Patent number: 12258026
    Abstract: This application relates to a device and a method for calculating a fault ratio. The method may include by using image frames collected from a camera of a first vehicle, generating a driving route in which the first vehicle travels, and acquiring fault information of a traffic accident involving a second vehicle, the traffic accident being related to the driving route of the first vehicle. The method may also include changing factors related to braking or steering of the first vehicle and the second vehicle, and generating multiple simulation driving scenarios by simulating the driving route on the basis of the changed factors. The method may further include computing a fault ratio of the first vehicle and the second vehicle for each of the multiple simulation driving scenarios by correcting the fault information on the basis of the factors.
