Investigating pedestrian safety-related behavior in developing countries: Egypt as a case study
Understanding pedestrian behavior and road safety culture is essential for improving traffic safety in developing countries. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the validity for applying the Pedestrian Behavior Scale (PBS) in Egypt to ...

The development of an automatic method of safety monitoring at Pelican Crossings [PDF]
This paper reports on the development of a method for automatic monitoring of safety at Pelican crossings. Historically, safety monitoring has typically been carried out using accident data, though given the rarity of such events it is difficult to ...

Framework for pedestrian walking behaviour recognition to minimize road accident [PDF]
Pedestrian walking misbehaviour represents a severe problem to road safety. Therefore, pedestrian behaviour classification is a perfect solution in providing safety for both pedestrians and vehicles by exchanging movement information among entities
