Detection of Safe Passage for Trains at Rail Level Crossings Using Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The detection of obstacles at rail level crossings (RLC) is an important task for ensuring the safety of train traffic. Traffic control systems require reliable sensors for determining the state of anRLC. Fusion of information from a number of sensor...

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...

Fault Diagnosis for High-Speed Train Axle-Box Bearing Using Simplified Shallow Information Fusion Convolutional Neural Network.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Axle-box bearings are one of the most critical mechanical components of the high-speed train. Vibration signals collected from axle-box bearings are usually nonlinear and nonstationary, caused by the complicated operating conditions. Due to the high ...

Inferring transportation mode from smartphone sensors: Evaluating the potential of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

PloS one
Understanding which transportation modes people use is critical for smart cities and planners to better serve their citizens. We show that using information from pervasive Wi-Fi access points and Bluetooth devices can enhance GPS and geographic infor...

A Hybrid PSO-SVM Model Based on Safety Risk Prediction for the Design Process in Metro Station Construction.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Incorporating safety risk into the design process is one of the most effective design sciences to enhance the safety of metro station construction. In such a case, the concept of Design for Safety (DFS) has attracted much attention. However, most of ...

Sequential prediction of quantitative health risk assessment for the fine particulate matter in an underground facility using deep recurrent neural networks.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety
Particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 µm (PM) in indoor public spaces such as subway stations, has represented a major public health concern; however, forecasting future sequences of quantitative health risk is an effective metho...

Driver's behavioural changes with new intelligent transport system interventions at railway level crossings--A driving simulator study.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Improving safety at railway level crossings is an important issue for the Australian transport system. Governments, the rail industry and road organisations have tried a variety of countermeasures for many years to improve railway level crossing safe...

Artificial intelligence-assisted method of structural health monitoring of subway shield tunnel based on insulation degradation location.

PloS one
Stray current leakages inevitably arise to seriously threaten the reliability of the subway tunnel structure and third-party system through electrochemical corrosion. Location of stray current leakage provides novel approach to mitigate stray current...

Enhanced intelligent train operation algorithms for metro train based on expert system and deep reinforcement learning.

PloS one
In recent decades, automatic train operation (ATO) systems have been gradually adopted by many metro systems, primarily due to their cost-effectiveness and practicality. However, a critical examination reveals computational constraints, adaptability ...
