Automated Video Analysis as a Tool for Analysing Road User Behaviour
نویسندگان
چکیده
At Lund University an automated video analysis system is being developed that can be applied for studying the behaviour of road users in complex traffic environments. It is stressed that system must be capable of handling all the categories of road users, i.e. vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists. Common problems like detection and tracking of moving objects, occlusion by foreground objects, ground-plane co-ordinates estimation, smoothing of the scattered data and estimation of speed and acceleration profiles are discussed and some solution proposed.

ideo analysis has become a rather common tool for data collection in traffic. Various instruments based on the technique, such as traffic counters, systems for detection of incidents (congestion, stand-still, appearance of a physical obstacle on the road, abnormal behavior such as driving in the wrong direction), or vehicle identification (license plate readers) are available on the market, or ...
متن کاملCollection of Micro-level Safety and Efficiency Indicators with Automated Video Analysis
This paper revises the theoretical grounds for relation of the micro-level behaviour indicators to the safety and efficiency (level-of service) of the local traffic system. Automated video analysis is suggested as a tool for collection of the individual data about road users driving trajectories and speeds and interaction with other road users. We describe the current state of the video analysi...
متن کاملA Flexible, Mobile Video Camera System and Open Source Video Analysis Software for Road Safety and Behavioural Analysis
This paper presents a scalable, discreet and mobile video-camera system that takes elevated video data of roadway locations for traffic safety analysis. The video is used to extract microscopic traffic parameters including road-user trajectories, lane changes and speeds. Collected video data is processed using an open-source automatic tracking tool. Trajectories can be then used to analyse road...

We present a research tool that supports marine ecologists’ research by allowing analysis of long-term and continuous fish monitoring video content. The analysis can be used for instance to discover ecological phenomena such as changes in fish abundance and species composition over time and area. Two characteristics set our system apart from traditional ecological data collecting and processing...
متن کاملThe road user behaviour of New Zealand Adolescents
The present study aimed to describe the road user behaviour of New Zealand adolescents and to investigate the applicability of the Adolescent Road user Behaviour Questionnaire (ARBQ) to New Zealand adolescents. In total 944 adolescents were surveyed in the North and South islands of New Zealand. Factor analysis of the scale produced three factors which had acceptable internal reliability and we...
