Passing Lane Effectiveness on Two-Lane Roads

IN T R O D U C T IO N A passing lane is an added lane provided in one or both directions of travel on a conventional tw o-lane highw ay to im prove passing oppo r­ tunities. T his definition includes passing lanes in level or rolling terra in , clim bing lanes on grades, and short four-lane sections. T he length of the added lane can vary from 1,000 feet as m uch as 3 miles. Figure 1 illustrate...

Joan Lane

The death of Dr Joan Lane after a short illness in May of this year is a great and sad loss to her colleagues and friends and to the history of medicine community. Joan was about to take retirement from the University of Warwick, where she had taught for the past twenty-two years. Although she had no intention of ceasing with her research activities, she was planning to spend more time with her...

Lane-by-lane sequencing using Illumina's Genome Analyzer II.

Next-generation sequencing has become an essential tool in molecular biology that has been successfully applied to a broad variety of experimental approaches. While several platforms for next-generation sequencing exist, the most commonly used approach is sequencing-by-synthesis, implemented on Illumina's Genome Analyzer II (GAII) and HiSeq2000 systems. A key constraint of these sequencers is t...

Multi-Lane Visual Perception for Lane Departure Warning Systems

This paper presents a Road Detection and Tracking algorithm for Lane Departure Warning Systems. An inverse perspective transformation gives a bird-eye view of the road, where longitudinal road markings are detected by exploration of horizontal gradient, looking for a road marking model. Next, a parabolic lane model is fitted to road markings and tracked through a particle filter. The right and ...
