TraversRL: Traversable Pedestrian Pathway Generation With Reinforcement Learning
Bin Han, Robert Wolfe, Bill Howe
Automatically generating pedestrian pathways from aerial images requires producing a connected network suitable for routing, not just detecting where sidewalks appear. Sidewalks an…
Reliable, Routable, and Reproducible: Collection of Pedestrian Pathways at Statewide Scale
Yuxiang Zhang, Bill Howe, Anat Caspi
While advances in mobility technology including autonomous vehicles and multi-modal navigation systems can improve mobility equity for people with disabilities, these technologies…
Towards Zero-Shot Annotation of the Built Environment with Vision-Language Models (Vision Paper)
Bin Han, Yiwei Yang, Anat Caspi +1
Equitable urban transportation applications require high-fidelity digital representations of the built environment: not just streets and sidewalks, but bike lanes, marked and unmar…
PathwayBench: Assessing Routability of Pedestrian Pathway Networks Inferred from Multi-City Imagery
Yuxiang Zhang, Bill Howe, Sachin Mehta +2
Applications to support pedestrian mobility in urban areas require a complete, and routable graph representation of the built environment. Globally available information, including…
