This book was released on 2010 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final report on a project that examined the precision and bias of both optical and traditional mechanical methods for different glass bead types. The project also compared the precision and bias of various measurement methods, and explored development of a practice for the use of computerized optical methods and equipment to measure the size and roundness of glass beads used in traffic markings.
Download or read book Performance Criteria for Retroreflective Pavement Markers written by Adam Matthew Pike and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pavement markings are the most common traffic control device (TCD) used to communicate roadway information to drivers. To be effective, they must convey information in all lighting and weather conditions. As a result, pavement markings on public roads contain retroreflective elements, such as glass beads, so that light from vehicle headlights is returned to the eye of the driver at night. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Research Report 1015: Performance Criteria for Retroreflective Pavement Markers seeks to isolate and identify the effects of retroreflective pavement markers (RPMs) from a cohesive, three-pronged investigation of driver visibility, behavior, and safety.
Download or read book Flexible Regression and Smoothing written by Mikis D. Stasinopoulos and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-04-21 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about learning from data using the Generalized Additive Models for Location, Scale and Shape (GAMLSS). GAMLSS extends the Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) and Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) to accommodate large complex datasets, which are increasingly prevalent. In particular, the GAMLSS statistical framework enables flexible regression and smoothing models to be fitted to the data. The GAMLSS model assumes that the response variable has any parametric (continuous, discrete or mixed) distribution which might be heavy- or light-tailed, and positively or negatively skewed. In addition, all the parameters of the distribution (location, scale, shape) can be modelled as linear or smooth functions of explanatory variables. Key Features: Provides a broad overview of flexible regression and smoothing techniques to learn from data whilst also focusing on the practical application of methodology using GAMLSS software in R. Includes a comprehensive collection of real data examples, which reflect the range of problems addressed by GAMLSS models and provide a practical illustration of the process of using flexible GAMLSS models for statistical learning. R code integrated into the text for ease of understanding and replication. Supplemented by a website with code, data and extra materials. This book aims to help readers understand how to learn from data encountered in many fields. It will be useful for practitioners and researchers who wish to understand and use the GAMLSS models to learn from data and also for students who wish to learn GAMLSS through practical examples.
