Pro-active Warning System for the Crossroads at Construction sites Based on Computer Vision
To improve insufficient management by artificial management, especially for traffic accidents that occur at crossroads, this paper develops a pro-active warning system for crossroads at construction … [Read more...] about Pro-active Warning System for the Crossroads at Construction sites Based on Computer Vision
Odds of Work Zone Crash Occurrence and Getting Involved in Advance Warning, Transition, and Activity Areas by Injury Severity
Work zone area types include advance warning area, transition area, and activity area. The geometric conditions, traffic control aspects, traffic operations, and driver's maneuverability differ within … [Read more...] about Odds of Work Zone Crash Occurrence and Getting Involved in Advance Warning, Transition, and Activity Areas by Injury Severity
Predicting Work Zone Collision Probabilities via Clustering: Application in Optimal Deployment of Highway Response Teams
This paper proposes a clustering approach to predict the probability of a collision occurring in the proximity of planned road maintenance operations (i.e., work zones). The proposed method is applied … [Read more...] about Predicting Work Zone Collision Probabilities via Clustering: Application in Optimal Deployment of Highway Response Teams
