Development of a Real-Time Crash Risk Prediction Model Incorporating the Various Crash Mechanisms Across Different Traffic States

Traffic Injury Prevention, 2014
Objective: This study aimed to identify the traffic flow variables contributing to crash risks under different traffic states and to develop a real-time crash risk model incorporating the varying crash mechanisms across different traffic states.Methods: The crash, traffic, and geometric data were collected on the I-880N freeway in California in 2008 ...

Sustaining the teaching profession: Innovating the ‘golden thread’ in university‐led teacher education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines the implications of England's ‘golden thread’ policy framework for teacher education, which describes a state‐mandated, linear model of professional learning from initial teacher training and education through to continuing professional development.

The Illusion of the Perpetual Money Machine

, 2012
We argue that the present crisis and stalling economy continuing since 2007 are rooted in the delusionary belief in policies based on a "perpetual money machine" type of thinking.

How does dialogic teaching facilitate students' creative thinking? Evidence from a sequential analysis of teacher–student dialogue in primary language classrooms

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Dialogic teaching has been shown to be beneficial for students' learning and achievement. However, few studies have investigated how dialogic teaching may foster students' creative thinking in the classroom. This study examined the sequential patterns of classroom dialogue associated with students' creative thinking.

Real-Time Safety Evaluation at Signalized Intersections: Hierarchical Bayesian Extreme Value Theory Models Based on Different Conflict Types

Journal of Advanced Transportation
Real-time safety evaluation of urban signalized intersections is a prerequisite for proactive traffic safety management. Due to its independence from historical data, the traffic conflict technique has gained increasing popularity as a tool for real-time

Predicted lane-based time to collision: A novel surrogate safety measure for pedestrian potential risk evaluation at non-signalized intersections

Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
Pedestrian crossing safety at non-signalized intersections remains a critical challenge. Proactive pedestrian protection systems, such as pedestrian warning systems, have emerged as reliable alternatives to crash data-dependent analyses.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Metaheuristic-optimized neural networks for travel time index prediction: A comparative study of wild horse and coot optimization algorithms

Transportation Engineering
Accurate travel time prediction is essential for effective Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs). Unlike traditional gradient-based methods, which may get trapped in local optima, metaheuristic algorithms efficiently navigate complex optimization ...

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
