one of the most important issues in urban planning is developing sustainable public transportation. the basic condition for this purpose is analyzing current condition especially based on data. data mining is a set of new techniques that are beyond statistical data analyzing. clustering techniques is a subset of it that one of it’s techniques used for analyzing passengers’ trip. the result of t...

short-term traffic flow forecasting plays a significant role in the intelligent transportation systems (its), especially for the traffic signal control and the transportation planning research. two mainly problems restrict the forecasting of urban freeway traffic parameters. one is the freeway traffic changes non-regularly under the heterogeneous traffic conditions, and the other is the success...

conclusions the findings of this study indicated that the economic burden of tbis was high in fatal accidents in fars province so that it was equivalent to 0.00011% of iran’s gross domestic product (gdp) in 2013. therefore, more attention has to be paid to the rules to prevent the fatal accidents. results deaths resulting from tbis due to traffic accidents in shiraz imposed 6.2 billion rials (5...

the paper discusses the current state of research concerning railway network timetabling and traffic management. timetable effectiveness is governed by frequency, regularity, accurate running, recovery and layover times, as well as minimal headway, buffer times and waiting times. analytic (queuing) models and stochastic microsimulation are predominantly used for estimation of waiting times and ...

Risky driving behavior is regarded as being one of the best predictors of traffic accidents. Traffic violations certainly signal risky driving behavior, but the analysis of the linkage of traffic violations, individual and vehicle characteristics and annual mileage has so far been hampered by the difficulty of gaining access to appropriate disaggregate data. The contribution of this paper is th...

conclusions atpl was higher in the post-monsoon season. w/s ratio and correlation analysis revealed interseasonal homogeneity of tmv and traffic noise levels and interseasonal heterogeneity of air pollutant concentrations and atpl in the city microenvironments. results atpl was 3.35 times higher in the post-monsoon and 1.83 times higher in the pre-monsoon season than the permissible limits pres...

To address the speeding problem in residential areas, the City of Edmonton initiated a pilot project to reduce the posted speed limit from 50km/h to 40km/h within six residential communities. This paper investigates the community perceptions of traffic safety within the six pilot communities in two phases: prior to project initiation (pre-pilot) and following the end of the project (post-pilot)...

In this paper we determine the relationship between developmental patterns and the incidence of traffic accidents. We evaluate the accident data for four intersections, which inhabit two different developmental typologies of the urban environment. Key-Words: urban core, sprawl development, arterial thorough fares, crash incidence, neighborhood scale.

Monitoring unused or dark IP addresses offers opportunities to extract useful information about both on-going and new attack patterns. In recent years, different techniques have been used to analyze such traffic including sequential analysis where a change in traffic behavior, for example change in mean, is used as an indication of malicious activity. Change points themselves say little about d...

Urban traffic plans (UTPs) are tactical planning tools for managing urban areas and traffic noise abatement is one of their objectives, explicitly provided for under Italian law. To date, the various models and methods for estimating traffic noise have concerned its estimation in a point (or on a road segment). In this paper we propose a method that is able to evaluate the effects of UTPs on no...
