Intersection crash analysis considering longitudinal and lateral risky driving behavior from connected vehicle data: A spatial machine learning approach.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Existing intersection safety analysis studies have primarily focused on macro-level static infrastructure and highly aggregated traffic features. The emergence of Connected Vehicle (CV) has enabled researchers to extract micro-level driving behavior ...

EEG quantization and entropy of multi-step transition probabilities for driver drowsiness detection via LSTM.

Computers in biology and medicine
Detecting driver drowsiness through electroencephalogram (EEG) poses challenges due to the complexity and variability of brain activity across different subjects. This study proposes a feature extraction pipeline combined with a Long Short-Term Memor...

Exploiting heart rate variability for driver drowsiness detection using wearable sensors and machine learning.

Scientific reports
Driver drowsiness is a critical issue in transportation systems and a leading cause of traffic accidents. Common factors contributing to accidents include intoxicated driving, fatigue, and sleep deprivation. Drowsiness significantly impairs a driver'...

Predicting car accident severity in Northwest Ethiopia: a machine learning approach leveraging driver, environmental, and road conditions.

Scientific reports
Road traffic accidents (RTAs) in Northwest Ethiopia, a region with a fatality rate of 32.2 per 100,000 residents, pose a critical public health challenge exacerbated by infrastructural deficits and environmental hazards. This study leverages machine ...

Learning salient representation of crashes and near-crashes using supervised contrastive variational autoencoder.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Models capable of learning representations that are salient in safety-critical events (SCEs; including crashes and near-crashes) are crucial for road safety. This study proposes a novel deep learning model, the supervised contrastive variational auto...

An interpretable stacking ensemble learning model for visual-manual distraction level classification for in-vehicle interactions.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Recognizing the level of driver distraction during the execution of secondary tasks within the intelligent cockpit is crucial for ensuring a seamless interaction between human drivers and intelligent vehicle systems. To address this issue, this paper...

Predicting occupant response curves in vehicle crashes via Attention-enhanced multimodal temporal Network.
