Predicting pedestrian-vehicle interaction severity at unsignalized intersections.

Traffic injury prevention
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to develop and validate a novel deep-learning model that predicts the severity of pedestrian-vehicle interactions at unsignalized intersections, distinctively integrating Transformer-based models with Multilayer Perceptron...

Unraveling the determinants of traffic incident duration: A causal investigation using the framework of causal forests with debiased machine learning.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Predicting the duration of traffic incidents is challenging due to their stochastic nature. Accurate predictions can greatly benefit end-users by informing their route choices and safety warnings, while helping traffic operation managers more effecti...

An integrated framework for driving risk evaluation that combines lane-changing detection and an attention-based prediction model.

Traffic injury prevention
OBJECTIVE: In recent years, the increase in traffic accidents has emerged as a significant social issue that poses a serious threat to public safety. The objective of this study is to predict risky driving scenarios to improve road safety.

Uncertainty-aware probabilistic graph neural networks for road-level traffic crash prediction.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Traffic crashes present substantial challenges to human safety and socio-economic development in urban areas. Developing a reliable and responsible traffic crash prediction model is crucial to address growing public safety concerns and improve the sa...

A Real-Time Embedded System for Driver Drowsiness Detection Based on Visual Analysis of the Eyes and Mouth Using Convolutional Neural Network and Mouth Aspect Ratio.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Currently, the number of vehicles in circulation continues to increase steadily, leading to a parallel increase in vehicular accidents. Among the many causes of these accidents, human factors such as driver drowsiness play a fundamental role. In this...

Investigation of a surrogate measure-based safety index for predicting injury crashes at signalized intersections.

Traffic injury prevention
OBJECTIVES: The paper develops a machine learning-based safety index for classifying traffic conflicts that can be used to estimate the frequency of signalized intersection crashes, with a focus on the more severe ones that result in fatal and severe...

Evaluating the effectiveness of safety countermeasures at highway-railway grade crossing based on a machine learning framework.

Traffic injury prevention
OBJECTIVE: This research aims to cluster similar highway-railway grade crossings (HRGCs) to examine the safety countermeasures at HRGCs.

Analysis of influencing factors of traffic accidents on urban ring road based on the SVM model optimized by Bayesian method.

PloS one
Based on small scale sample of accident data from specific scenarios, fully exploring the potential influencing factors of the severity of traffic accidents has become a key and effective research method. In order to analyze the factors mentioned abo...

A hybrid approach for modeling bicycle crash frequencies: Integrating random forest based SHAP model with random parameter negative binomial regression model.

Accident; analysis and prevention
To effectively capture and explain complex, nonlinear relationships within bicycle crash frequency data and account for unobserved heterogeneity simultaneously, this study proposes a new hybrid framework that combines the Random Forest-based SHapley ...

Optimizing vehicle Front-End structure for e-bike rider Safety: An advanced Multi-Objective approach using injury prediction models.

Accident; analysis and prevention
A multi-objective optimization method based on an injury prediction model is proposed to address the increasingly prominent safety issues for e-bike riders in Chinese road traffic. This method aims to enhance the protective effect of vehicle front-en...
