Factors that influence parents' intentions of using autonomous vehicles to transport children to and from school.

Accident; analysis and prevention
High-level autonomous vehicles (AVs) are likely to improve the quality of children's travel to and from school (such as improve travel safety and increase travel mobility). These expected benefits will not be presented if parents are not willing to u...

Investigating the safety and operational benefits of mixed traffic environments with different automated vehicle market penetration rates in the proximity of a driveway on an urban arterial.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Traffic congestion is monotonically increasing, especially in large cities, due to rapid urbanization. Traffic congestion not only deteriorates traffic operation and degrades traffic safety, but also imposes costs to the road users. The concerns asso...

Applying machine learning, text mining, and spatial analysis techniques to develop a highway-railroad grade crossing consolidation model.

Accident; analysis and prevention
The consolidation of Highway-Railroad Grade Crossing (HRGC) is one of the effective approaches to decrease the number of crashes between trains and vehicles. From 2015-2019, there were 57 HRGC crashes at crossings in East Baton Rouge Parish (EBRP), r...

Traffic accident detection and condition analysis based on social networking data.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Accurate detection of traffic accidents as well as condition analysis are essential to effectively restoring traffic flow and reducing serious injuries and fatalities. This goal can be obtained using an advanced data classification model with a rich ...

Safety critical event prediction through unified analysis of driver and vehicle volatilities: Application of deep learning methods.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Transportation safety is highly correlated with driving behavior, especially human error playing a key role in a large portion of crashes. Modern instrumentation and computational resources allow for the monitorization of driver, vehicle, and roadway...

Deep-Learning-Based Prediction of High-Risk Taxi Drivers Using Wellness Data.

International journal of environmental research and public health
BACKGROUND: Factors related to the wellness of taxi drivers are important for identifying high-risk drivers based on human factors. The purpose of this study is to predict high-risk taxi drivers based on a deep learning method by identifying the well...

Mid-term prediction of at-fault crash driver frequency using fusion deep learning with city-level traffic violation data.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Traffic violations and improper driving are behaviors that primarily contribute to traffic crashes. This study aimed to develop effective approaches for predicting at-fault crash driver frequency using only city-level traffic enforcement predictors. ...

Crash narrative classification: Identifying agricultural crashes using machine learning with curated keywords.

Traffic injury prevention
OBJECTIVE: Traditionally, structured or coded data fields from a crash report are the basis for identifying crashes involving different types of vehicles, such as farm equipment. However, using only the structured data can lead to misclassification o...

Methodological considerations in MVC epidemiological research.

Injury prevention : journal of the International Society for Child and Adolescent Injury Prevention
BACKGROUND: The global burden of MVC injuries and deaths among vulnerable road users, has led to the implementation of prevention programmes and policies at the local and national level. MVC epidemiological research is key to quantifying MVC burden, ...

Modeling and predicting vehicle accident occurrence in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Given the ever present threat of vehicular accident occurrence endangering the lives of most people, preventative measures need to be taken to combat vehicle accident occurrence. From dangerous weather to hazardous roadway conditions, there are a hig...
