MetroSurv: detecting events in subway stations

Multimedia Tools and Applications, 2009
Video surveillance has become a hot research topic due to the recently increased importance of safety and security issues. Usually, security personnel has to monitor a surveillance area and often they have to do this for 24 h a day. Thus, it would be desirable to develop intelligent surveillance systems that support this task automatically.

A study on the prevention of accidents in subway station through the surveys on accidents in a subway station

2006 SICE-ICASE International Joint Conference, 2006
This study analyzed the types of accidents that occur in a subway station in order to determine an effective means to prevent such accidents in the future. In addition, we examined potential railroad detection systems and compared them with the current subway operation system, including how the command center conducts its real-world evaluation of ...

Measuring capacity flexibility of subway station

17th International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC), 2014
A new concept of capacity flexibility of a subway station system dealing with demand changes is proposed in this paper, and the computation framework of which is also established. Two approaches of the framework to calculate capacity flexibility are developed using queuing network capacity models.

An Assessment of Subway Station Capacity

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
Each year, according to Chinese and European statistics, there are many serious injuries and even fatalities of travelers into subway transit stations. Consequently, it becomes more and more important for transit authorities to evaluate these facilities (platform, gates, stairs, escalators, etc.) under critical traffic conditions, such as rush hours or

Predicted behavior of a subway station in weathered rock

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1997
Abstract Sao Paulo Subway's Fourth Line will have part of it's underground excavation placed in a weathered gneiss rock mass, fractured, highly altered, and with vertical ubiquitous joints, closely spaced. Pinheiros Underground Station will be excavated in unfavourable geotechnical conditions. Behavior of this excavation was predicted using numerical

The influence of subway station design on noise levels

The Laryngoscope, 2016
Objectives/HypothesisTo investigate the impact of subway station design on platform noise levels.Study DesignObservational.MethodsContinuous A‐weighted decibel (dBA) sound levels were recorded in 20 New York City subway stations, where trains entered on either a straight track or curved track in 10 stations each. Equivalent continuous noise levels (Leq)

Public signs detection in subway station images

2013 10th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI), 2013
It's difficult to find location in indoor environments such as subway station and airport passenger terminal. However, the detection and recognition of public sign make it possible to find out the place to go. Proposed system can help visually impaired persons or mobile robots in unfamiliar places.

Communication in BAS Network System in Subway Station

2010 International Conference on Computational Aspects of Social Networks, 2010
BAS (Building Automatic System) network structure in subway station directly determines the performance of their communications, and thereby affects the performance of workstation, OCC (Operation Control Centre), TCC (Traffic Control Centre) and other multi-monitor clients.
