چکیده

Fuzzy probabilities have been widely used in the areas of risk assessment and decision making. Here, we propose a system based on fuzzy probabilities for assessing the intensity of pedestrian collisions and levels of injury. The proposed approach uses possibility probability distributions for demonstrating fuzzy probabilities. A composition of possibility probability distributions (fuzzy probabilities) of collision intensities coming from different environmental variables yields the final fuzzy probability of intensity with higher reliability. The proposed approach is then applied to an actual database of pedestrian collisions from the City of Mashhad for over a period of five years. Keywords_ Collision Intensity, Collision Variables, Fuzzy Probability, Possibility Probability Distribution.

An Assessment of the Impact of Pedestrian Refuge Islands on Vehicle Speed Changes and Pedestrian Safety: Case Study in Tehran

Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable road users. Speed of vehicles is considered as one of the major causes of danger for pedestrians crossing the street. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to devise suitable solutions to reduce speed of vehicles. One of these solutions is installation of Pedestrian Refuge Islands (PRI) in very wide midblocks. With regard to fluctuations in pedestrian a...

Rule-based joint fuzzy and probabilistic networks

One of the important challenges in Graphical models is the problem of dealing with the uncertainties in the problem. Among graphical networks, fuzzy cognitive map is only capable of modeling fuzzy uncertainty and the Bayesian network is only capable of modeling probabilistic uncertainty. In many real issues, we are faced with both fuzzy and probabilistic uncertainties. In these cases, the propo...
