A Pedestrian-Pedestrian and Pedestrian-Vehicle Interaction Motion Model for Pedestrians Tracking

2014
We propose a pedestrian-pedestrian and pedestrian-vehicle interaction motion model for predicting the motion of the pedestrians and tracking pedestrians in traffic scene mixed with cars. Pedestrians’ motion in such scenes are often complex and highly correlated with both pedestrians and vehicles nearby.

Pedestrian exposure and the risk of child pedestrian injury

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1994
AbstractThe authors used data from the New Zealand Household Travel Survey to examine the extent to which children's pedestrian exposure varies with age, sex and household income. Pedestrian injury morbidity data were combined with pedestrian exposure data to examine age‐specific pedestrian injury risk. The annual number of road crossings for girls was

Wobbling of Pedestrian Bridges

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2022
The author introduces a model for a single pedestrian walking on a suspension bridge in order to explain its oscillations. The pedestrian is modeled as a biped, which is essentially an inverted pendulum with a point mass on two massless legs. The bridge is only permitted to move in the lateral direction.

Walking pedestrian recognition

IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2000
In previous years, many methods providing the ability to recognize rigid obstacles-sedans and trucks-have been developed. These methods provide the driver with relevant information. They are able to cope reliably with scenarios on motorways. Nevertheless, not much attention has been given to image processing approaches to increase the safety of ...

Benefits of pedestrianization and warrants to pedestrianize an area

Land Use Policy, 2016
With the rapid increase in numbers of private vehicles on the road, many transportation related issues like congestion, crashes and injuries, pollution, noise etc. have grown very rapidly. Urban settlements like core CBD and heritage town, which were planned for NMT and pedestrians, are worst affected.

Pedestrian Behavior at Signalized Pedestrian Crossings

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 2013
AbstractThe objective of this research was to define eventual differences in models of pedestrian behavior at signalized pedestrian crossings, with and without countdown displays. The outcomes of this work represent a contribution to the harmonization of positions on the effect of a countdown display on pedestrian behavior.

Analysis of pedestrians’ behavior at pedestrian crossings

Safety Science, 2001
This paper presents a methodology for studying pedestrians' behavior at pedestrian crossings. To help understand the behavior of pedestrians, separate models were developed and estimated for divided and undivided streets. Estimated models include waiting time at the curbside and the number of crossing attempts needed by the pedestrian to make a ...

Pedestrian Conflicts, Pedestrian Comfort Levels, and Current Pedestrian Levels of Service

2013
The current methodology of analyzing pedestrian levels of service stated in the KHCM (Korean Highway Capacity Manual) excludes pedestrian comfort from its primary measures of effectiveness, resulting in mismatching levels of service calculated with the KHCM and the ones stated by pedestrians on the basis of comfort. This can lead to undesirable designs

Pedestrian

2012
PEDESTRIAN is inspired by my daily walking routines and my relationship to the spaces in which I walk. Through additional instruction-guided walks with volunteers, this project examines the seemingly mundane travels of walkers and their relationship to and absorption of the space around them, and encourages a reconsideration of the environmental ...
