Simulation of Roadside LiDAR Applications: A Smart Work Zone Case Study
Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) have the capability to detect 360-degree surrounding objects with high accuracy (centimeter level), high frequency (a tenth of a second), and long measuring … [Read more...] about Simulation of Roadside LiDAR Applications: A Smart Work Zone Case Study
A Sensor-Based Method to Detect Near-Miss Struck-By on Construction Site
As a precursor of serious accident, near-miss incidents are of great significance to construction safety management. A real-time detection method for near-miss incidents can improve the performance of … [Read more...] about A Sensor-Based Method to Detect Near-Miss Struck-By on Construction Site
Automated Vehicle Detection Systems Data as a Promising Approach for Roadway Construction Planning: The Case of Dallas, Texas, Highway System
Construction activities on roadway infrastructure have adverse impacts on traffic safety and mobility because of often needed lane and shoulder closures. Existing approaches for planning roadway … [Read more...] about Automated Vehicle Detection Systems Data as a Promising Approach for Roadway Construction Planning: The Case of Dallas, Texas, Highway System
Safety Helmet Detection at Construction Sites Using YOLOv5 and YOLOR
Wearing a helmet is mandatory for workers at construction sites. It is very important for the safety of workers during work. In many scenarios, detecting workers not wearing helmets can prevent … [Read more...] about Safety Helmet Detection at Construction Sites Using YOLOv5 and YOLOR
Characterization, Detection, and Segmentation of Work-Zone Scenes From Naturalistic Driving Data
This paper elucidates the automatic detection and analysis of work zones (construction zones) in naturalistic roadway images. An underlying motivation is to identify locations that may pose a … [Read more...] about Characterization, Detection, and Segmentation of Work-Zone Scenes From Naturalistic Driving Data
