Interaction-aware Autonomous Driving (IAAD) is a rapidly growing field of
research that focuses on the development of autonomous vehicles (AVs) that are
capable of interacting safely and efficiently with human road users. This is a
challenging task, as it requires the autonomous vehicle to be able to
understand and predict the behaviour of human road users. In this literature
review, the current state of IAAD research is surveyed in this work. Commencing
with an examination of terminology, attention is drawn to challenges and
existing models employed for modelling the behaviour of drivers and
pedestrians. Next, a comprehensive review is conducted on various techniques
proposed for interaction modelling, encompassing cognitive methods, machine
learning approaches, and game-theoretic methods. The conclusion is reached
through a discussion of potential advantages and risks associated with IAAD,
along with the illumination of pivotal research inquiries necessitating future
exploration
