Book State of the Art Evaluation of Traffic Detection and Monitoring Systems

Download or read book State of the Art Evaluation of Traffic Detection and Monitoring Systems written by Dan Middleton and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report covers the Phase A and B activities of Research Project SPR 627 for the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). Phase C is planned as a separate research activity and is anticipated to begin in the near term, following the completion of Phases A and B. The need for a better valuation program for new traffic detection systems came in part from a lack of confidence in existing detectors, as well as the need for non-intrusive detectors to replace failing embedded inductive loops. The primary objectives of this research were to identify the most promising vehicle detection technologies to meet ADOT needs, to identify candidate test sites, to develop a field test evaluation plan, and to develop and deliver a detailed design of the detection testbed on the selected segment of freeway. The Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) met these objectives through an Internet and literature search, a state-of-the-practice review, a search of relevant new detector systems, and through meetings with the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). Relying on TAC input, TTI developed first a conceptual design, followed by a detailed design and budget for a proposed test facility located on I-10 in Phoenix just west of the 16th Street interchange. Detectors selected for test in the initial period of 12-plus months during Phase C (and the technology used) are as follows: Wavetronix SS-125 (microwave radar), Sensys Networks (magnetic), Global Traffic Technologies microloops (magnetic) and Autoscope Solo Pro (video imaging). The baseline system selected for providing ground truth data is the Peek ADR-6000 using inductive signatures as its basis of detection. It is anticipated that this Phase C testing will include two summer seasons to expose selected detectors to the extreme heat and related environmental conditions found in the Phoenix. The initial cost of the testbed will include detectors sufficient to ultimately cover eight lanes in the westbound direction (currently seven lanes) and six lanes in the eastbound direction. Besides the detectors, the total cost estimate includes a 12 ft by 12 ft node building, three equipment cabinets, inductive loops for the baseline system, conduit, and boring. The total cost of the facility is estimated to be approximately $566,000.

Book Intelligent Monitoring  Control  and Security of Critical Infrastructure Systems

Download or read book Intelligent Monitoring Control and Security of Critical Infrastructure Systems written by Elias Kyriakides and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-13 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the challenges that critical infrastructure systems face, and presents state of the art solutions to address them. How can we design intelligent systems or intelligent agents that can make appropriate real-time decisions in the management of such large-scale, complex systems? What are the primary challenges for critical infrastructure systems? The book also provides readers with the relevant information to recognize how important infrastructures are, and their role in connection with a society’s economy, security and prosperity. It goes on to describe state-of-the-art solutions to address these points, including new methodologies and instrumentation tools (e.g. embedded software and intelligent algorithms) for transforming and optimizing target infrastructures. The book is the most comprehensive resource to date for professionals in both the private and public sectors, while also offering an essential guide for students and researchers in the areas of modeling and analysis of critical infrastructure systems, monitoring, control, risk/impact evaluation, fault diagnosis, fault-tolerant control, and infrastructure dependencies/interdependencies. The importance of the research presented in the book is reflected in the fact that currently, for the first time in human history, more people live in cities than in rural areas, and that, by 2050, roughly 70% of the world’s total population is expected to live in cities.

Book Computer Vision for Driver Assistance

Download or read book Computer Vision for Driver Assistance written by Mahdi Rezaei and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarises the state of the art in computer vision-based driver and road monitoring, focussing on monocular vision technology in particular, with the aim to address challenges of driver assistance and autonomous driving systems. While the systems designed for the assistance of drivers of on-road vehicles are currently converging to the design of autonomous vehicles, the research presented here focuses on scenarios where a driver is still assumed to pay attention to the traffic while operating a partially automated vehicle. Proposing various computer vision algorithms, techniques and methodologies, the authors also provide a general review of computer vision technologies that are relevant for driver assistance and fully autonomous vehicles. Computer Vision for Driver Assistance is the first book of its kind and will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, engineers and those generally interested in computer vision-related topics in modern vehicle design.

Book Highway Traffic Monitoring

Download or read book Highway Traffic Monitoring written by and published by . This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major problems that attracted the researchers during the past years are increasing traffic in urban and sub-urban areas. Traffic varies over time and place. It is necessary to understand and be able to monitor all of these activities and changes in travel to make correct decisions about the design, operation, and maintenance of roadways. Traffic congestion can be detected in sequences of optical images in different ways. Trying to detect each individual vehicle and then to estimate its velocity does not sound a good approach. This theoretical vehicle density is directly related to the average vehicle velocity on the road segment and thus the information about the traffic situation, e.g. the existence of congestion, the beginning and end of congestion, the length of the jam, actual travel time, and so on can be derived. Since the construction of paved roads, we have struggled with ways to record vehicular movement. Not only is this information required for proper design of roadways, but also new intelligent transportation systems (ITS) require real-time knowledge of traffic movement to be effective. Highway Traffic Monitoring presents the state of the art and the practice and a look to the future trends in highway traffic monitoring. It describes methods of assessing the performance and reliability of traffic-counting equipment, including the evaluation of any bias within the results. It also covers the related issues such as commissioning, validation, verification, reliability, technology and test procedures. Traffic control and monitoring using video sensors has drawn increasing attention recently due to the significant advances in the field of computer vision. Many commercial and research systems use video processing, aiming to solve specific problems in road traffic monitoring. The focus of this guide is on the collection of traffic statistics, such as speed and traffic loads; identify dangerous situations, such as objects falling, animals or traffic jams.
