Machine Learning Simulation of Pedestrians Exploring the Built Environment
… theoretical analysis of a tool that simulate pedestrians’ behavior for architectural design. This dissertation uniquely combined these existing machine learning methods and constitutes an important step in developing computational tools to predict human behavior in architectural space.

Protection of Standing and Seated Pedestrians Using Finite Element Analysis
… have increased over the last 40 years and pedestrians who use wheelchairs (seated pedestrians) have higher mortality rates than standing pedestrians in vehicle impacts. Standing pedestrian protection has generated increased attention and regulatory action but seated pedestrian protection …

Safe crossing among pedestrians based on extended theory of planned behaviour
… investigate the contributing factors that affect pedestrians to use a crossing facility and to analyse the relationship between the contributing factors and a safe crossing behaviour. Furthermore, this study also proposed improvement in crossing facilities to ensure pedestrians cross roads with …

Intention prediction of pedestrians in challenging weather conditions using deep learning
… a framework for predicting the intention of pedestrians in clear and challenging weather conditions. The framework consists of five deep-learning models, of which two are designed and trained from scratch and three were used pretrained. The framework takes video frames from the dashcam and …

Re-identification and semantic retrieval of pedestrians in video surveillance scenarios
… a related task, named semantic retrieval of pedestrians in video surveillance scenarios, which consists of searching images of individuals using a textual description of clothing appearance as a query, given by a Boolean combination of predefined attributes. This can be useful in applications …

Agent-Based Modelling and Simulation of Sidewalk Delivery Robots' Interaction with Pedestrians
… buffers, they pose collision risks. Notably, pedestrians often breach safety distances, implicating them in proximity issues. This emphasizes the need for further research and specialized safety measures. The simulator aids urban planners and researchers in assessing design interventions and …

Pedestrians walking speed and psychological distance at bus terminal and shopping mall
The studies of pedestrians walking speed and psychological distance in both indoor and outdoor are important for understanding the walking behaviours especially in the Malaysian context. In order to obtain relevant information on pedestrians walking behaviours, it is essential to conduct some …

Localisation, tracking, and navigation support for pedestrians in uninstrumented and unknown environments
Research into localisation and tracking of pedestrians is a growing area, but developed techniques have tended to be infrastructure-based or to rely on accessto prior information such as floorplans and maps. There are situations, such assearch and rescue missions, where more robust and versatile …

Immersive real-time multi-user interaction with computer simulated pedestrians during emergencies
Crowd management is a key issue in large public assemblies in both emergency and nonemergency scenarios. It is important to be able to train for crowd management and test crowd management procedures for both emergency and non-emergency scenarios, however, full-scale exercises are costly, difficult …

Real-time predictive modeling and robust avoidance of pedestrians with uncertain, changing intentions
… structure of these environments, drivers and pedestrians tend to exhibit a common set of motion patterns. The challenges are therefore to learn these motion patterns such that they can be used to predict future trajectories, and to plan safe paths that incorporate these predictions. This …

Modelling pedestrians’ utilisation of crossing facilities, gap acceptance and crossing decision in urban area
… Numerous factors which affect the behaviour of pedestrians have been identified. Up to now, far too little attention has been paid to pedestrian road crossing behaviour in Malaysia. The specific aim of this study was to provide new insights and develop models for pedestrian gap acceptance, …

Effectiveness of Automatic Emergency Braking for Protection of Pedestrians and Bicyclists in the U.S.
… fatalities in 2018, of which 20% were pedestrians, bicyclists, and other vulnerable road users (VRUs) [1]. Vulnerable road users are non-vehicle occupants who, because they are not enclosed in a vehicle, are at higher risk of injury in traffic crashes. While overall traffic fatalities …

Interaction between pedestrians and highly automated vehicles: effects of external human-machine interfaces and vehicle size
Pedestrians will interact with automated vehicles of higher automation levels on the road in forthcoming urban traffic. In highly automated vehicles, vehicle automation takes over the driving task, and the former human driver becomes a passenger. The challenge of introducing highly automated …

Measuring Accessibility for Pedestrians, Bicyclists, and Transit Riders to Grocery Stores in the Excelsior/Outer Mission Neighborhoods of San Francisco
… topic of research, studies measuring access for pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit riders are extremely rare. When a new store opened in the Excelsior/Outer Mission districts of San Francisco on a street lacking basic infrastructure for pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit riders, the …

The Complexities of Walking and Rolling: Using Crowdsourced Data to Understand and Analyze the Mobility Barriers Vulnerable Populations Experience as Pedestrians
… policy has created streetscapes that endanger pedestrians. Pedestrian-vehicle collisions disproportionately impact older adults (aged 65+), with fatality rates three times higher than younger age groups. Similarly, factors such as episodic or permanent disability, and gender increase overall …
