Smart cities and smart mobility come from intelligent systems designed by humans. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is contributing significantly to the development of these systems, automotive industry most prominent example "smart" technology entering market: there are Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), Radar/LIDAR detection units camera-based Computer Vision that can assess driving conditi...

Objective: To estimate an interim five-level EuroQol five-dimensional (EQ-5D-5L) value set for Poland on the basis of the crosswalk methodology developed by the EuroQol Group. Methods: On the basis of data from 3691 respondents from six European countries, the EuroQol Group has developed a method of obtaining interim value sets for the EQ-5D-5L by means of mapping to the available three-level E...

In this study, we examine the differences in pedestrian behavior at crosswalks between communicating with conventional vehicles (CVs) and automated (AVs). To analyze statistically, record pedestrian’s position (x- y-coordinates) every 0.5 s perform a hot spot analysis. A Toyota Prius (ZVW30) is used as CV AV, vehicle controlled using Wizard of Oz method. An experiment conducted on public road O...

BACKGROUND The SF-36 physical functioning scale (PF-10) and the Health Assessment Questionnaire disability index (HAQ-DI) are the most frequently used instruments for measuring self-reported physical function in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of this study was to develop a crosswalk between scores on the PF-10 and HAQ-DI in RA. METHODS Item response theory (IRT) methods were used to...

Purpose This study aims to validate a model for estimating platoon delay due pedestrian crossing use in Kuwait City. Design/methodology/approach The was modified slightly the scenario used Kuwait, which presence of raised crosswalk meant that all incoming traffic would slow down automatically. Using video footage observe site, several variables were collected, and calculate delays suffered by v...

Abstract In order to more accurately assess the pedestrian level of service (PLOS) crosswalks and rationally design signal timing, a method calculating standard equivalent (SPE) factors at signalized crosswalk in China was proposed this study by considering differences static dynamic characteristics amongst pedestrians. Firstly, pedestrians were classified into five types using field data colle...

In this study, we describe the results of an analysis effectiveness providing pedestrian safety services, in terms reducing traffic accidents. We conducted our by investigating speed vehicles at two different demonstration points, where same system and service were provided. For purpose, selected a child protection zone point on general road section raised crossing is installed. vehicle surveys...

It is necessary to objectively quantify how well roadways accommodate pedestrian travel. Estimation of pedestrian level of service (LOS) is the most common approach to assess quality of operations of pedestrian facilities. Intersections, by their very nature, are locations where there is considerable potential for conflict between different traffic streams and different users. At busy intersect...

The research shows that over 90% of all accidents are due to human error. Automated vehicle technologies hold the promise decreasing number accidents. However, complex and usually there is a chain events leading up an accident. For example, take signalized intersection, where pedestrian enters crosswalk against red light when traffic turns green for vehicles. Vehicle A (across intersection) det...
