Effects of Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure System on Driver’s Visual and Driving Performance Based on Cognition Process
This study explores the influence of cooperative vehicle infrastructure system (CVIS) on the driver’s visual and driving performance. Taking the work zone as an example, a driving simulation … [Read more...] about Effects of Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure System on Driver’s Visual and Driving Performance Based on Cognition Process
Revealing the Impact of Mainstream Disruptions on On-Ramp Merging Behavior—A Virtual Reality (VR) Approach Using Work Zone Case Studies
Infrastructure disruptions such as lane closures present traffic efficiency and road safety challenges, especially on freeways. Such impacts become more significant when combined with compulsory … [Read more...] about Revealing the Impact of Mainstream Disruptions on On-Ramp Merging Behavior—A Virtual Reality (VR) Approach Using Work Zone Case Studies
Quantitatively Evaluate Work Zone Driver Behavior Using 2D Imaging, 3-D Lidar & Artificial Intelligence in Support of Congestion Mitigation Model Calibration & Validation
This project addressed the following: 1) a lack of a system to process raw traffic footage obtained from work zones to extract traffic and driver behavior information, especially systems that leverage … [Read more...] about Quantitatively Evaluate Work Zone Driver Behavior Using 2D Imaging, 3-D Lidar & Artificial Intelligence in Support of Congestion Mitigation Model Calibration & Validation
