The effect of a mixed-capability vehicular fleet on Vulnerable Road User safetySjögren, Nicholas, Vu, Huy January 2024 (has links)
This thesis investigates the integration of vehicles with differing levels of automation and connectivity within suburban traffic systems, focusing on their impact on road safety, traffic efficiency, and risk, particularly concerning vulnerable road users. By employing a Cooperative and Connected Automotive Mobility (CCAM) framework, the study examines how vehicles that share real-time information and intentions under different CCAM configurations influence the dynamics of suburban mobility. Utilizing simulation tools like SUMO and Artery, this research conducts multiple traffic scenario simulations to capture the interactions between automated, connected, and conventional vehicles. The simulations specifically target the implementation of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) protocols such as ETSI ITS-G5, directed by the European standard, assessing their efficacy in fostering safer and more efficient suburban environments. The parameters used to determine the performance of a scenario are number of emergency brakes, collisions, average vehicle speed, average relative speed and ratio of departed speed. The findings aim to provide actionable insights into deploying advanced vehicular technologies, ensuring their beneficial integration into increasingly complex suburban traffic networks, thus supporting global road safety initiatives like Vision Zero. This project shows that safety-wise, the general mix of vehicles that provide the safest traffic conditions are the heterogenous mix of 50% automated, with higher levels of connectivity contributing to better metric scores from an efficiency standpoint.

Situational awareness in autonomous vehicles : learning to read the roadMathibela, Bonolo January 2014 (has links)
This thesis is concerned with the problem of situational awareness in autonomous vehicles. In this context, situational awareness refers to the ability of an autonomous vehicle to perceive the road layout ahead, interpret the implied semantics and gain an awareness of its surrounding - thus reading the road ahead. Autonomous vehicles require a high level of situational awareness in order to operate safely and efficiently in real-world dynamic environments. A system is therefore needed that is able to model the expected road layout in terms of semantics, both under normal and roadwork conditions. This thesis takes a three-pronged approach to this problem: Firstly, we consider reading the road surface. This is formulated in terms of probabilistic road marking classification and interpretation. We then derive the road boundaries using only a 2D laser and algorithms based on geometric priors from Highway Traffic Engineering principles. Secondly, we consider reading the road scene. Here, we formulate a roadwork scene recognition framework based on opponent colour vision in humans. Finally, we provide a data representation for situational awareness that unifies reading the road surface and reading the road scene. This thesis therefore frames situational awareness in autonomous vehicles in terms of both static and dynamic road semantics - and detailed formulations and algorithms are discussed. We test our algorithms on several benchmarking datasets collected using our autonomous vehicle on both rural and urban roads. The results illustrate that our road boundary estimation, road marking classification, and roadwork scene recognition frameworks allow autonomous vehicles to truly and meaningfully read the semantics of the road ahead, thus gaining a valuable sense of situational awareness even at challenging layouts, roadwork sites, and along unknown roadways.

Uso de aprendizado supervisionado para análise de confiabilidade de dados de crowdsourcing sobre posicionamento de ônibus / Use of supervised learning to analyze reliability of crowdsourcing bus location dataDiego Vieira Neves 16 October 2018 (has links)
Pesquisadores de diversas áreas estão estudando o desenvolvimento do que chamamos de Cidades Inteligentes: a integração de Sistemas de Informação e Comunicação com tecnologias de Internet das Coisas para utilizar os recursos de uma cidade de forma mais inteligente. Um dos principais objetivos das cidades inteligentes é solucionar os problemas relacionados à mobilidade urbana, que afeta significativamente a qualidade de vida da população. Um problema observável nas grandes metrópoles é a qualidade dos seus serviços de transporte público, especialmente quando nos referimos ao modal ônibus. A falta de informações confiáveis, associada à baixa qualidade dos serviços de transporte coletivo disponibilizados, leva o usuário a não optar pela utilização desse recurso, o que agrava problemas urbanos sociais e ambientais. Para reverter esse cenário, as iniciativas em cidades inteligentes propõem o uso de Sistemas de Transportes Inteligentes que podem utilizar diversos sensores e equipamentos para coletar diferente tipos de dados referente aos serviços de transporte público. A captura e processamento desses dados permite, em tese, permite que o cidadão possa utilizar o transporte público com confiabilidade e previsibilidade. Contudo, esses dados podem ser insuficientes ou de baixa qualidade para uso em tempo real. Neste trabalho de mestrado investigamos o uso de dados obtidos via colaboração coletiva (crowdsourcing) como complemento dessas informações. Para mitigar as incertezas introduzidas pelo uso de crowdsourcing, este trabalho propõe a utilização de técnicas de aprendizado de máquina para criação de métodos de análise de confiabilidade dos dados coletados para o sistema de transporte público (por ônibus) do município de São Paulo.

Performance Impacts through Intelligent Transport Systems : An Assessment of how to Measure and EvaluateHofmeister, Patrick, Kadner, Matthias January 2011 (has links)
This study assesses how to measure and evaluate performance impacts of IntelligentTransport Systems (ITS) in the transport chain.The importance of transportation in global trade has increased significantly in the lastdecades. Cost pressure, rising customer demand for sophisticated logistics services, sustainabilityand security as well as safety issues have boosted the need for more efficient,effective and differentiated transport operations. Intelligent Transport Systems werefound to have the potential to address these challenges in the transport chain. However,due to the novelty of the technology both ITS developers and users face huge uncertaintyabout the performance impacts of ITS. Evaluating ITS in the transport chain beforethe rollout based on concrete measures is likely to reduce the uncertainty involvedin ITS developments and enhance the adoption rate of the new technology. The increasingnumber of ITS projects, like the Secure Intermodal Transport Systems at VolvoTechnology, create a need for a structured approach to measure and evaluate ITS.A literature review concerning the characteristics of the transport industry, technologyadoption, ITS and performance measurements served as a basis for the empirical studyin which 8 semi-structured interviews with different stakeholders in the transport industrywere conducted in order to find out how the performance impacts of ITS are perceivedin the industry and how they could possibly be assessed. The focus groupmethod was used to validate and apply the findings from the interview study to a GeofencingITS-service.The study has confirmed that the concept of ITS is still an emerging phenomenon in thetransportation industry. There is no common understanding of ITS among researchersand practitioners in the transport industry and still a lack of knowledge regarding theperformance impacts of ITS. Even though it could be found that ITS leverages mainlythe service level that can be offered to the customer and that they increase the efficiencyin the back office, the great variety of ITS-services calls for an individual assessment.Structuring the assessment into the phases of measurement design, implementation anduse of the measures facilitates this process. For the different phases a set of activitiescritical for a successful assessment of ITS have been identified. Despite its usefulnessfor mitigating the uncertainty related to the new technology, the focus group validationuncovered that a comprehensive measurement for ITS is not appropriate from the outset,but should be assessed based on the cost of the measurement, the ITS project priority,the customer relations as well as the hierarchical structure in the provider firm.

Using risk analysis to prioritise road-based intelligent transport systems (ITS) in QueenslandJohnston, Katherine Amelia January 2006 (has links)
With perpetual strains on resources, road agencies need to develop network-level decision-making frameworks to ensure optimum resource allocation. This is especially true for incident management services and in particular variable message signs (VMS), which are relatively immature disciplines compared to traditional road engineering. The objective of incident management and VMS is to minimise the safety, efficiency, reliability and environmental impacts of incidents on the operations of the transport system. This may be achieved by informing travellers of the incidents so they can adapt their behaviour in a manner that reduces community impacts, such as lateness and the associated vehicle emissions, unreliability of travel times, as well as secondary accidents due to incidents.
Generally, road authorities do carry out needs assessments, but qualitatively in many cases. Therefore, this masters research presents a framework that is systematic, quantitative and relatively easy to implement. In order to prioritise VMS infrastructure deployment, a risk management approach was taken that focuses on minimising the impacts on, and costs to the community. In the framework and case study conducted, safety, efficiency and reliability, and environmental impacts are quantified using an economic risk management approach to determine an overall risk score. This score can be used to rank road sections within the network, indicating the roads with the highest risk of incident network impacts and therefore the roads with the highest need for intervention. A cost-effectiveness based risk-reduction ranking can then be determined for each incident management treatment type, comparing the net risk with treatment to that without treatment, and dividing by the net present value of deployment. The two types of ranking, pure risk and cost-effectiveness based risk reduction, will help to minimise the network impacts on the community and optimise resource allocation.
