Analysis of pedestrian second crossing behavior based on physics-informed neural networks

open access: yesScientific Reports
Pedestrian two-stage crossings are common at large, busy signalized intersections with long crosswalks and high traffic volumes. This design aims to address pedestrian operation and safety by allowing navigation in two stages, negotiating each traffic ...
