Operation payload management investigated the impact of two weighing technologies (truck and loader installed scales), operated by hired drivers owner-operators on route types; gazetted (classified for increased GVW limits) non- (standard limits public roads). On non-gazetted roads approaches proved equally effective but when used together appeared to be less effective, while owner operators ha...

In the process of retelling information, individuals often inadvertently transform it to be more consistent with their cultural schemas. We explore long-term change inherent in this process, focusing on utterances about tastes as our case study (e.g., music, food, and outdoor hobbies). use a word embedding model simulate “telephone game” where each actor partially hears an utterance, uses schem...

Road extraction is a hot task in the field of remote sensing, and it has been widely concerned applied by researchers, especially using deep learning methods. However, many models convolutional neural networks ignore attributes roads, shape road banded discrete. In addition, continuity accuracy are also affected narrow roads blocked trees. This paper designs network (MSPFE-Net) based on multi-l...

This paper presents a novel routine to detect the changes of main roads with airborne images of medium-scale of 1:10,000. It mainly focuses on the changes detection of primary streets not the extraction of roads though it sounds an essential step. Here comes the brief work flows of this method: first, auto dodging the original image with Wallis Filter (Deren Li, 2006) as the pretreatment, secon...

Roads are significant objects of an infrastructure and the extraction of roads from aerial and satellite images are important for different applications such as automated map generation and change detection. Roads are also important to detect other structures such as buildings and urban areas. In this paper, the road extraction approach is based on Active Contour Models for 1-meter resolution g...

Resolving the problem of congestion roads is very challenging; however a way out of this problem will bring about many most wanted results like helping people not late to work; deliveries arrive on time and more. One approach to confront this task is letting the drivers be aware of congested roads online, so the drivers will be able to avoid going through the congested roads. This paper propose...

This study evaluates the impact of the 65-mph speed limit on traffic safety. Using data for the years 1981 to 1995 for all 50 states, a pooled time series analysis is conducted. Separate models are estimated for state fatality rates on four categories of roads: rural interstate highways, rural noninterstate roads, all roads except for rural interstate highways, and all roads. It is reported tha...
