Advanced model-based risk reasoning on automatic railway level crossings
Safety Science, 2020 Safety is a core issue in the railway operation. In particular, as witnessed by accident/incident statistics, railway level crossing (LX) safety is one of the most critical points in railways. In the present paper, a Bayesian network (BN) based framework
