Identification of high "risk" pedestrian locations
… safety, it is necessary to identify those locations which pose high risks. The objective of this thesis is to develop criteria to identify high "risk" locations for pedestrian safety on roadway networks. These high "risk" locations were identified based on analyses of crash data. The crash …

IDeixis : image-based deixis for recognizing locations
In this thesis, we describe an approach to recognizing location from camera-equipped mobile devices using image-based web search. This is an image-based deixis capable of pointing at a distant location away from the user's current location. We demonstrate our approach on an application allowing …

ESTIMATING LOCATIONS OF SHUNT FAULTS ON DISTRIBUTION LINES
The usual approach for estimating the locations of transmission line shunt faults has been to measure the apparent impedance to the fault from a line terminal and convert the reactive component of the impedance to the line length. Several methods, that use the fundamental frequency voltages and …

Learning significant user locations with GPS and GSM
This thesis addresses the tasks of place discovery and place recognition - learning and recognizing places significant to a user - by analyzing GPS location and GSM cell tower data collected from the user's mobile phone. Location provides valuable context into the user's environment, and …

Predicting Future Locations and Arrival Times of Individuals
… two objectives: a) to predict people's future locations, and b) to predict when they will be at given locations. Current location-based applications react to the user's current location. The progression from location-awareness to location-prediction can enable the next generation of proactive, …

Locations of AVI System and Travel Time Forecasting
… optimization problem, thus the best locations was determined on the basis of several criteria. The model developed was tested in an assumed transportation network. The achieved CPU time in this stage of the research are promising. MATLAB and its accompanying Neural Network Toolbox, …

Strategic valve locations in a water distribution system
… should be explored in determining the locations of valves. For this purpose, three methodologies, namely segment-valve matrix algorithm, decision tree approach and simulation are proposed. Another consideration for placing valves is a strategic valving rule, namely N and (N-1) valving …

Locations and dis-locations of personal, public and imaginary space in the visual production of ten women artists working in South Africa
… and the shaping o f their identities. The term 'locations' is used to refer to areas, or sites, in which 'personal' and 'public' identity is enacted. Determinants oflocations are identified in relation to ancestry and the constructs of 'race', class, gender and sexual identity. These determinants …

Analysis of factors related to pedestrian high-crash locations
… factors influencing high pedestrian crash locations. The models are based on statistical analyses of crash data. These are illustrated using pedestrian crash data for the Las Vegas Metropolitan area, in Nevada, USA. Crash data were collected for a five year period (1996--2000) and analyzed. …

Extracting curbside storm drain locations from street-level images
… procedure to identify and extract storm drain locations from natural images along surface street curbsides. Existing storm drain infrastructure information is commonly reposed by managing agencies in either paper or digital format. Access to these data for urban hydrologic and hydraulic …

Attention to Non-Contiguous Locations of the Visual Field
… matching task while pre-cueing two separate locations. Our results suggested that attention can be allocated to noncontiguous regions of space as long as sudden-onsets do not appear between the attended locations. We hypothesized that subjects could allocate attention over noncontiguous …

uCom : spatial displays for visual awareness of remote locations
uCom enables remote users to be visually aware of each other using "spatial displays" - live views of a remote space assembled according to an estimate of the remote space's layout. The main elements of the system design are a 3D representation of each space and a multi-display physical setup. The …

A comprehensive optimization methodology for strategic environmental sensor station locations
… agencies follow different practices for choosing locations for environmental sensor stations (ESS) (the components that collect RWIS weather data). To fill this gap, this study proposes a comprehensive cell-based methodology that is data-driven, using crash records, weather data, and road network …
