Book The Use of Real time Connected Vehicles and HERE Data in Developing an Automated Freeway Incident Detection Algorithm

Download or read book The Use of Real time Connected Vehicles and HERE Data in Developing an Automated Freeway Incident Detection Algorithm written by Hendry Nyanza Imani and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic incidents cause severe problems on roadways. About 6.3 million highway crashes are reported annually only in the United States, among which more than 32,000 are fatal crashes. Reducing the risk of traffic incidents is key to effective traffic incident management (TIM). Quick detection of unexpected traffic incidents on roadways contribute to quick clearance and hence improve safety. Existing techniques for the detection of freeway incidents are not reliable. This study focuses on exploring the potential of emerging connected vehicles (CV) technology in automated freeway incident detection in the mixed traffic environment. The study aims at developing an automated freeway incident detection algorithm that will take advantage of the CV technology in providing fast and reliable incident detection. Lee Roy Selmon Expressway was chosen for this study because of the THEA CV data availability. The findings of the study show that emerging CV technology generates data that are useful for automated freeway incident detection, although the market penetration rate was low (6.46%). The algorithm performance in terms of detection rate (DR) and false alarm rate (FAR) indicated that CV data resulted into 31.71% DR and zero FAR while HERE yielded a 70.95% DR and 9.02% FAR. Based on Pearson's correlation analysis, the incidents detected by the CV data were found to be similar to the ones detected by the HERE data. The statistical comparison by ANOVA shows that there is a difference in the algorithm's detection time when using CV data and HERE data. 17.07% of all incidents were detected quicker when using CV data compared to HERE data, while 7.32% were detected quicker when using HERE data compared to CV data.

Book Evaluation of Incident Detection Methodologies

Download or read book Evaluation of Incident Detection Methodologies written by Hani S. Mahmassani and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The detection of freeway incidents is an essential element of an area's traffic management system. Incidents need to be detected and handled as promptly as possible in order to minimize traffic delays. Various algorithms and detection technologies are examined to determine which combinations offer optimized detection performance. This study represents an effort to compile, compare, and rank available incident detection strategies.

Book Optimal Design and Operation of Freeway Incident Detection service Systems

Download or read book Optimal Design and Operation of Freeway Incident Detection service Systems written by Adolf Darlington May and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes optimization techniques which have been developed and applied for the evaluation of design and operations of freeway incident detection-service systems. The report has four major parts: (1) analysis and design of stationary service systems; (2) analysis and design of incident detection algorithms; (3) analysis and design of incident response systems; and (4) analysis and design of freeway on-ramp traffic-responsive control methodology for normal and incident conditions.

Book Neural Networks in Transport Applications

Download or read book Neural Networks in Transport Applications written by Veli Himanen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998, this volume enters the debate on human behaviour in the form of neural networks in a spatial context. As most transportation research techniques had been developed in the 1960s and 1970s, these authors sought to bring that research into the modern era. Featuring 17 articles from 37 contributors, it begins with an overview and proceeds to examine aspects of travel behaviour, traffic flow and traffic management.
