U.S. Port Disruptions under Tropical Cyclones: Resilience Analysis by Harnessing Multiple-Source Dataset
Chenchen Kuai, Zihao Li, Yunlong Zhang +3
This study introduces the CyPort Dataset, recording disruptions to 145 U.S. principal ports and freight network from 90 tropical cyclones (2015-2023). It addresses limitations of e…
Learning from geometry-aware near misses to real-time COR: A corridor-wide grouped random parameters GEV framework
Mohammad Anis, Yang Zhou, Dominique Lord
Real-time corridor-wide crash-occurrence risk (COR) prediction is challenging because existing near-miss extreme value theory (EVT) models often oversimplify collision geometry, ne…
Simulating the Unseen: Crash Prediction Must Learn from What Did Not Happen
Zihao Li, Xinyuan Cao, Xiangbo Gao +12
Traffic safety science has long been hindered by a fundamental data paradox: the crashes we most wish to prevent are precisely those events we rarely observe. Existing crash-freque…
AI2-Active Safety: AI-enabled Interaction-aware Active Safety Analysis with Vehicle Dynamics
Keshu Wu, Zihao Li, Sixu Li +3
This paper introduces an AI-enabled, interaction-aware active safety analysis framework that accounts for groupwise vehicle interactions. Specifically, the framework employs a bicy…
Virtual Roads, Smarter Safety: A Digital Twin Framework for Mixed Autonomous Traffic Safety Analysis
Hao Zhang, Ximin Yue, Kexin Tian +5
This paper presents a digital-twin platform for active safety analysis in mixed traffic environments. The platform is built using a multi-modal data-enabled traffic environment con…
Why Anticipatory Sensing Matters in Commercial ACC Systems under Cut-In Scenarios: A Perspective from Stochastic Safety Analysis
Hao Zhang, Sixu Li, Zihao Li +3
This study presents an analytical solution for the vehicle state evolution of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) systems under cut-in scenarios, incorporating sensing delays and anticip…
