Safety requirements for cyclists during impacts to the legs [PDF]
The term vulnerable road user (VRU) is most commonly associated with pedestrians and in particular children and the elderly. In many European countries cyclists make up a significant number of VRU casualties - typically around one third.

Pedestrians are the most vulnerable users of transport networks due to lack of protection and also due to particular characteristics and behaviour affecting the nature of their interaction with motorized traffic. The knowledge of pedestrian attitudes, perceptions and behaviour may thus assist policy makers in the better understanding of pedestrian ...

An IF-RCNN Algorithm for Pedestrian Detection in Pedestrian Tunnels [PDF]
Para hacer frente a los problemas de mezcla de fondo, desenfoque de peatones y multiescala de peatones en túneles peatonales, propusimos un método mejorado de detección de peatones de red neuronal de convolución basada en regiones más rápidas (IF-RCNN), que utiliza Deep CNN para extraer automáticamente características de imágenes en lugar de ...

Acceptance of visual and audio interventions for distracted pedestrians [PDF]
Distraction from mobile devices increases pedestrian risks at intersections. Innovative interventions are currently installed at road and rail intersections to alert pedestrians.

Leptogenesis for pedestrians [PDF]
During the process of thermal leptogenesis temperature decreases by about one order of magnitude while the baryon asymmetry is generated. We present an analytical description of this process so that the dependence on the neutrino mass parameters becomes transparent.

Pedestrian Traffic Characterization Based on Pedestrian Response
Pedestrian behavior is studied during normal and emergency evacuation of two groups of students. One group consists of grade nine high school students while the other group includes diploma (college) students. The evacuation time, number of steps, step frequency, and velocity are observed.

Isolated and Single Pedestrians and Pedestrian Groups on Sidewalks [PDF]
Walking freedom can define the quality of an urban area, but this freedom is conditioned by various factors. The research objective is to study pedestrian behavior on sidewalks. Data are collected during on site surveys by means of concealed camcorders.

Pedestrians as floating life - On the reinvention of the pedestrian city
Walking with its average speed of 5 km/h was for a very long period the primary mode of moving and engaging with the immediate material environment for humans. However, over the past half-century, the socio-technical systems of automobility as well as other forms of non-human powered mobility have changed the ways in which cities are experienced.

Taking a Look at Small-Scale Pedestrians and Occluded Pedestrians [PDF]
Small-scale pedestrian detection and occluded pedestrian detection are two challenging tasks. However, most state-of-the-art methods merely handle one single task each time, thus giving rise to relatively poor performance when the two tasks, in practice, are required simultaneously.

A Statistical Approach for Modeling Individual Vertical Walking Forces
This paper proposes a statistical approach for modeling vertical walking forces induced by single pedestrians. To account for the random nature of human walking, the individual vertical walking force is modeled as a series of steps and the gait ...
