A large share of traffic accidents is related to driver fatigue. In recent years, many studies have been organized in order to diagnose and warn drivers. In this research, a new approach was presented in order to detect multi-level driver fatigue. A ...

PURPOSE: In France, tens of thousands of people use a wheelchair. Driving powered wheelchairs (PWCs) present risks for users and their families. The risk of collision in PWC driver increases with severity of disability and may reduce their independen...
In recent years, identifying road users' behavior and conflicts at intersections have become an essential data source for evaluating traffic safety. According to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), in 2020, more than 50% of fatal and injury cr...
For each road crash event, it is necessary to predict its injury severity. However, predicting crash injury severity with the imbalanced data frequently results in ineffective classifier. Due to the rarity of severe injuries in road traffic crashes, ...
Real-time safety prediction models are vital in proactive road safety management strategies. This study develops models to predict traffic conflicts at signalized intersections at the signal cycle level, using advanced Bayesian deep learning techniqu...
A citywide traffic crash risk map is of great significance for preventing future traffic crashes. However, the fine-grained geographic traffic crash risk inference is still a challenging task, mainly due to the complex road network structure, human b...
For the simulation-based test and evaluation of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs), the trajectory of the background vehicle has a direct effect on the performance of CAVs and experiment outcomes. The collected real trajectory data are limited b...
Driver drowsiness is one of the main causes of traffic accidents today. In recent years, driver drowsiness detection has suffered from issues integrating deep learning (DL) with Internet-of-things (IoT) devices due to the limited resources of IoT dev...
Hundreds of people are injured or killed in road accidents. These accidents are caused by several intrinsic and extrinsic factors, including the attentiveness of the driver towards the road and its associated features. These features include approach...
INTRODUCTION: The research described in this paper explored the factors contributing to the injury severity resulting from the male and female older driver (65 years and older) at-fault crashes at unsignalized intersections in Alabama.
