Abstract
A method for classifying a driving behavior of a road user in the environment of an ego vehicle. The method includes: receiving trajectory data of a driving trajectory of a road user arranged in the environment of an ego vehicle; ascertaining a latent-space representation of the driving trajectory of the road user in a latent space; ascertaining a distance of the latent-space representation of the driving trajectory of the road user to a latent-space representation of at least one normal trajectory in the latent space; and classifying a driving behavior of the road user as a normal driving behavior if the distance in the latent space falls below a predetermined limit value; or classifying the driving behavior of the road user as an abnormal driving behavior if the distance in the latent space exceeds the predetermined limit value.
