A Probabilistic Framework for Estimating the Risk of Pedestrian-Vehicle Conflicts at Intersections
Pei Li, Huizhong Guo, Shan Bao +1
Pedestrian safety has become an important research topic among various studies due to the increased number of pedestrian-involved crashes. To evaluate pedestrian safety proactively…
Investigating The Impacting Factors on The Public's Attitudes Towards Autonomous Vehicles Using Sentiment Analysis from Social Media Data
Shengzhao Wang, Meitang Li, Bo Yu +2
The public's attitudes play a critical role in the acceptance, purchase, use, and research and development of autonomous vehicles (AVs). To date, the public's attitudes towards AVs…
Divergent Effects of Factors on Crashes under Autonomous and Conventional Driving Modes Using A Hierarchical Bayesian Approach
Weixi Ren, Bo Yu, Yuren Chen +2
Influencing factors on crashes involved with autonomous vehicles (AVs) have been paid increasing attention. However, there is a lack of comparative analyses between influencing fac…
Investigating External Interaction Modality and Design Between Automated Vehicles and Pedestrians at Crossings
Sue Bai, Dakota Drake Legge, Ashley Young +2
In this study, we investigated the effectiveness and user acceptance of three external interaction modalities (i.e., visual, auditory, and visual+auditory) in promoting communicati…
Testing Scenario Library Generation for Connected and Automated Vehicles, Part II: Case Studies
Shuo Feng, Yiheng Feng, Haowei Sun +3
Testing scenario library generation (TSLG) is a critical step for the development and deployment of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). In Part I of this study, a general meth…
Gap Acceptance During Lane Changes by Large-Truck Drivers-An Image-Based Analysis
Kazutoshi Nobukawa, Shan Bao, David J. LeBlanc +3
This paper presents an analysis of rearward gap acceptance characteristics of drivers of large trucks in highway lane change scenarios. The range between the vehicles was inferred…
Analysis of mandatory and discretionary lane change behaviors for heavy trucks
Ding Zhao, Huei Peng, Kazutoshi Nobukawa +3
The behaviors of heavy vehicles drivers in mandatory and discretionary lane changes are analyzed in this paper. 640 mandatory and 2,035 discretionary lane change events were extrac…
Accelerated Evaluation of Automated Vehicles Safety in Lane Change Scenarios Based on Importance Sampling Techniques
Ding Zhao, Henry Lam, Huei Peng +4
Automated vehicles (AVs) must be evaluated thoroughly before their release and deployment. A widely-used evaluation approach is the Naturalistic-Field Operational Test (N-FOT), whi…
