Natural Time and Crash Risk
… of return distributions and financial crashes together. Specifically, I aim to identify the determinants of non‐normality in a high frequency setting and utilize these variables to forecast financial crashes. To this effect, multiple instruments and time horizons are considered. The …

Three Essays on Price Discovery, Stock Liquidity, and Crash Risk
… is associated with higher stock price crash risk. Since monitoring costs increase with distance, the results are consistent with the monitoring theory of local institutional investors. Cross-sectional analyses show that the effect of proximity on crash risk is more pronounced for firms …

Forecasting Markers of Habitual Driving Behaviors Associated with Crash Risk
Increasingly sophisticated driver assistance systems enhance safety by issuing notifications upon sensing lane departures or applying the brakes when detecting imminent collisions. Such systems, although remarkable, are reactionary and machine centered. Here we propose a method that is mixed in its …

Assessing the Effects of Driving Inattention on Relative Crash Risk
… on our nation's highways and the relative crash risk is unknown. It has recently become technologically feasible to conduct unobtrusive large-scale naturalistic driving studies as the costs and size of computer equipment and sensor technology have both dramatically decreased. A large-scale …

Estimation Of Hybrid Models For Real-time Crash Risk Assessment On Freeways
… would involve anticipating incidents such as crashes. The primary element of proactive traffic management strategy would be model(s) that can separate 'crash prone' conditions from 'normal' traffic conditions in real-time. The aim in this research is to establish relationship(s) between …

Driving Simulator Validation And Rear-end Crash Risk Analysis At A Signalised Intersection
… the intention of using it as a test bed for high risk locations and to use it in developing traffic safety countermeasures. The Simulator replicates a real world signalized intersection (Alafaya trail (SR-434) and Colonial Drive (SR-50)). A total of sixty one subjects of age ranging from sixteen …

Examining Route Diversion And Multiple Ramp Metering Strategies For Reducing Real-time Crash Risk On Urban Freeways
… at the University of Central Florida addressing crashes on Interstate-4 in Orlando, Florida has led to the creation of new statistical models capable of calculating the crash risk on the freeway (Abdel-Aty et al., 2004; 2005, Pande and Abdel-Aty, 2006). These models yield the rear-end and …

The Effects of Cognitive Executive Load on Driving Crashes and Near-Crashes
… and manual secondary tasks increase driving crash risk. With the increasing use of infotainment systems in vehicles, secondary tasks requiring cognitive executive demand may increase crash risk, especially for young and older drivers. Naturalistic driving data were examined to determine if …
