Road traffic congestion in modern cities has become essential problem which need to be solved. To solve this problem, we have proposed a dynamic traffic light controller system based on image processing. Images (the road-images) used in this research are taken by digital camera placed at fixed position in the traffic-light with specific resolution and distance. The taken images will be analyzed...

INTRODUCTION Access to radiation therapy (RT) underlies optimal care for prostate and breast cancer patients. This study investigates the impact of opening a new RT clinic on distance and road travel time to RT, and overall utilisation for prostate and breast cancer patients over a 3-year period in North Queensland (NQ), Australia. METHODS The study used retrospective audit of two radiotherap...

This paper presents a new algorithm for computing timedistance transformations of a road network based on modified multidimensional scaling. The algorithm is designed to perform on a realworld road network, and provides alternative visualisations for travel time cognition and route planning. Several extensions are explored, including user-centric and route-centric road map transformations. Our ...

Traffic load and transported quantity due to forest management were analysed on the forest roads in the forest district Dragatu{, SE Slovenia. On the basis of timber gravitating to particular sections, the traffic load and transported quantity were calculated for each of seven forest road sections. The cumulative traffic load is the highest on the section connected to the public road and the lo...

Most commonly, case-based reasoning is applied in domains where attribute value representations of cases are su cient to represent the features relevant to support classi cation, diagnosis or design tasks. Distance functions like the Hamming-distance or their transformation into similarity functions are applied to retrieve past cases to be used to generate the solution of an actual problem. Oft...

BACKGROUND Pedestrian injuries among older people tend to occur near their residence. However, knowledge regarding whether distance travelled from home to the injury site or road environmental/socioeconomic factors affect injury severity remains limited. METHODS A cross-sectional study was performed using injury registry data from the Kurume City Fire Department, Japan. Distance travelled fro...

finding a minimum allowable radius length of a circle horizontal curve is essential to reduce earthwork cost or damage to the forest ecosystem, as well as make driving more comfortable. the present study is conducted i) to analyze different radius lengths of circle horizontal curves using an integrated approach consists of a civil3d in concert with the field surveys, and ii) to propose a set of...
