A spatiotemporal deep learning approach for citywide short-term crash risk prediction with multi-source data.

Accident; analysis and prevention
The primary objective of this study is to investigate how the deep learning approach contributes to citywide short-term crash risk prediction by leveraging multi-source datasets. This study uses data collected from Manhattan in New York City to illus...

The Moral Machine experiment.

Nature
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence have come concerns about how machines will make moral decisions, and the major challenge of quantifying societal expectations about the ethical principles that should guide machine behaviour. To a...

Evaluating the influence of road lighting on traffic safety at accesses using an artificial neural network.

Traffic injury prevention
OBJECTIVES: This article focuses on the effect of road lighting on road safety at accesses to quantitatively analyze the relationship between road lighting and road safety.

Effective Vehicle-Based Kangaroo Detection for Collision Warning Systems Using Region-Based Convolutional Networks.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Traffic collisions between kangaroos and motorists are on the rise on Australian roads. According to a recent report, it was estimated that there were more than 20,000 kangaroo vehicle collisions that occurred only during the year 2015 in Australia. ...

Market penetration of intersection AEB: Characterizing avoided and residual straight crossing path accidents.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Car occupants account for one third of all junction fatalities in the European Union. Driver warning can reduce intersection accidents by up to 50 percent; adding Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) delivers a reduction of up to 70 percent. However, t...

A trial of retrofitted advisory collision avoidance technology in government fleet vehicles.

Accident; analysis and prevention
In-vehicle collision avoidance technology (CAT) has the potential to prevent crash involvement. In 2015, Transport for New South Wales undertook a trial of a Mobileye 560 CAT system that was installed in 34 government fleet vehicles for a period of s...

Modeling when and where a secondary accident occurs.

Accident; analysis and prevention
The occurrence of secondary accidents leads to traffic congestion and road safety issues. Secondary accident prevention has become a major consideration in traffic incident management. This paper investigates the location and time of a potential seco...

Identification of significant factors in fatal-injury highway crashes using genetic algorithm and neural network.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Identification of the significant factors of traffic crashes has been a primary concern of the transportation safety research community for many years. A fatal-injury crash is a comprehensive result influenced by multiple variables involved at the mo...

Machine learning, social learning and the governance of self-driving cars.

Social studies of science
Self-driving cars, a quintessentially 'smart' technology, are not born smart. The algorithms that control their movements are learning as the technology emerges. Self-driving cars represent a high-stakes test of the powers of machine learning, as wel...
