چکیده

DISCLAIMER The contents of this report reflect the views of the authors, who are responsible for the facts and the accuracy of the information presented herein. This document is disseminated under the sponsorship of the U.S. 1 Qualitative results. (a) A tiny bus detected with score 1.000. (b) An occluded bus detected with score 1.000 shown in green and a false positive with score 0.926 shown in red. Figure 7 suggests that this is a very low false positive score.. 8 2 The dataset is challenging because of noise, large change in illumination , heavy occlusions and large variation in object size in image. The yellow line indicates the boundary (based on the upper y coordinate) between buses near the intersection and buses far from the intersection. 9 3 Precision Recall for Laboratory Experiments. " ESVM+Domain " is Exemplar SVM operating on a cropped image, with two zones, without image flip add detection, without model sampling, without a HOG pyramid, with weibull calibration. " No Zones " is the same except that the image is not divided into two zones. " No Zones and No Lane Cropping " is the same as " No Zones " except that the image is not cropped to focus on the lane. " No Calibration " is the same as " ESVM+Domain " but does not use any form of exemplar calibration, while " Platt Calibra

Transit Signal Priority: Proposing a Novel Algorithm to Decrease Delay and Environmental Impacts in BRT Route Intersections

Intersections are considered as the most critical parts of the bus rapid transit (BRT) system. Transit signal priority is one of the efficient solutions to reduce BRT fleet delays at intersections. The aim of this study is to propose a new algorithm to decrease the BRT fleet delays at actuated intersections, while reducing the negative impacts on different approaches. The adaptive strategy is a...

Passenger number dependent traffic control in signalized intersections

The paper investigates a novel approach to the traffic control problem of signalized junction with bus priority. In road traffic engineering practice, adaptive control algorithms are generally used for maximizing the traffic flow of intersections. The adaptive strategies aim to calculate optimal signal splits for the traffic lights. The calculation is usually based on the number of vehicles mea...

Simulation Study of a Bus Signal Priority Strategy Based on GPS/AVL and Wireless Communications

Providing signal priority for buses has been proposed as an inexpensive way to improve transit efficiency, productivity and reduce operation costs [1]. Bus signal priority has been implemented in several US cities to improve schedule adherence, reduce transit operation costs, and improve customer ride quality [2]. Current signal priority strategies implemented in various US cities mostly utiliz...
