What affects pedestrian crossing difficulty at urban intersections in a developing country?

open access: yesIATSS Research, 2022
In developing countries, road traffic crashes involving pedestrians have become a foremost concern. At present, road safety assessment plans and selection of interventions are primarily restricted to traditional approaches that depend on the ...

Is the Pedestrian going to Cross? Answering by 2D Pose Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Our recent work suggests that, thanks to nowadays powerful CNNs, image-based 2D pose estimation is a promising cue for determining pedestrian intentions such as crossing the road in the path of the ego-vehicle, stopping before entering the road, and ...

Elevated road segment (ERS) passage design may provide enhanced connectivity for amphibians, reptiles, and small mammals

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionDesigns for safe and effective road crossing structures for small animals are typically under-road microtunnels and culverts which have varying levels of effectiveness reported in the scientific literature.

Reduced sensitivity to visual looming inflates the risk posed by speeding vehicles when children try to cross the road [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Almost all locomotor animals respond to visual looming or to discrete changes in optical size. The need to detect and process looming remains critically important for humans in everyday life.

To cross or not to cross: modeling wildlife road crossings as a binary response variable with contextual predictors

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Roads are significant barriers to landscape‐scale movements of individuals or populations of many wildlife taxa. The decision by an animal near a road to either cross or not cross may be influenced by characteristics of the road, environmental conditions,

Ranking Crossing Scenario Complexity for eHMIs Testing: A Virtual Reality Study

open access: yesMultimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2023
External human–machine interfaces (eHMIs) have the potential to benefit AV–pedestrian interactions. The majority of studies investigating eHMIs have used relatively simple traffic environments, i.e., a single pedestrian crossing in front of a single eHMI

Analysis of Pedestrian Gap Acceptance and Crossing Decision in Kuala Lumpur

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Pedestrians are most vulnerable of all road users. This research aims to investigate and model pedestrian road crossing behaviour at crossing facilities. In particular, they have two aspects of pedestrians crossing behaviour are examined, namely the size

New Applications of Radio Frequency Identification Stations for Monitoring Fish Passage through Headwater Road Crossings and Natural Reaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Within the Ouachita National Forest, roads and streams intersect each other thousands of times. Many of these road crossings alter stream hydrology and potentially limit longitudinal fish movement.
