Highway Incident Detection Research Based on Lipschitz Exponent Algorithm

Customisation of Automatic Incident Detection Algorithms for Signalised Urban Arterials

Non-recurrent congestion or incidents are detrimental to the operability and efficiency of busy urban transport networks. There exists multiple Automatic Incident Detection Algorithms (AIDA) to remotely detect the occurrence of an incident in highway or freeway scenarios, however very little research has been performed to automatically detect incidents in signalised urban arterials. This limite...

An effective optimization algorithm for locally nonconvex Lipschitz functions based on mollifier subgradients

Highway Traffic Incident Detection using High-Resolution Aerial Remote Sensing Imagery

Problem statement: As vehicle population increases, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) become more significant and mandatory in today’s overpopulated world. Vital problems in transportation such as mobility and safety of transportation are considered more, especially in metropolitans and highways. The main road traffic monitoring aims are: the acquisition and analysis of traffic figures, ...

Estimating the Number of Wideband Radio Sources

In this paper, a new approach for estimating the number of wideband sources is proposed which is based on RSS or ISM algorithms. Numerical results show that the MDL-based and EIT-based proposed algorithm havea much better detection performance than that in EGM and AIC cases for small differences between the incident angles of sources. In addition, for similar conditions, RSS algorithm offers hi...

Damage detection in a sandwich composite beam using wavelet transforms

There is a growing interest in developing non-destructive damage detection methods for damage assessment of composite structures, especially in the aerospace and marine industries. Although damage detection of composite laminates has been widely investigated, little work has been carried out on sandwich composite configurations. A technique using the Lipschitz exponent, which is estimated by wa...
