There are different proposals in the literature on how to protect pedestrians using warning systems to alert drivers of their presence. They can be based on onboard perception systems or wireless communications. The evaluation of these…
It is critical for vehicles to prevent any collisions with pedestrians. Current methods for pedestrian collision prevention focus on integrating visual pedestrian detectors with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) systems which can trigger…
This paper presents the state-of-the-art on Collision Avoidance and Collision Warning (CA,CW) systems. Traffic accidents result from driver errors or situations that are unpredictable for the driver. CA,CW systems are developed for reducing…
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) alert drivers during safety-critical scenarios but often provide superfluous alerts due to a lack of consideration for drivers' knowledge or scene awareness. Modeling these aspects together in a…
For safe navigation around pedestrians, automated vehicles (AVs) need to plan their motion by accurately predicting pedestrians trajectories over long time horizons. Current approaches to AV motion planning around crosswalks predict only…
In this paper, we provide a theoretical framework for the coordination of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) at signal-free intersections, accounting for the unexpected presence of pedestrians. First, we introduce a general…
Traffic accidents are a threat to human lives, particularly pedestrians causing premature deaths. Therefore, it is necessary to devise systems to prevent accidents in advance and respond proactively, using potential risky situations as one…
To ensure pedestrian friendly streets in the era of automated vehicles, reassessment of current policies, practices, design, rules and regulations of urban areas is of importance. This study investigates pedestrian crossing behaviour, as an…
For automated vehicles (AVs) to reliably navigate through crosswalks, they need to understand pedestrians crossing behaviors. Simple and reliable pedestrian behavior models aid in real-time AV control by allowing the AVs to predict future…
Minimizing traffic accidents between vehicles and pedestrians is one of the primary research goals in intelligent transportation systems. To achieve the goal, pedestrian orientation recognition and prediction of pedestrian's crossing or…
As safe and comfortable interactions with pedestrians could contribute to automated vehicles' (AVs) social acceptance and scale, increasing attention has been drawn to computational pedestrian behavior models. However, very limited studies…
A common yet potentially dangerous task is the act of crossing the street. Pedestrian accidents contribute a significant amount to the high number of annual traffic casualties, which is why it is crucial for pedestrians to use safety…
Pedestrian fatalities continue to rise in the United States, driven by factors such as human distraction, increased vehicle size, and complex traffic environments. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) offer a promising avenue for…
Increased interaction between and among pedestrians and vehicles in the crowded urban environments of today gives rise to a negative side-effect: a growth in traffic accidents, with pedestrians being the most vulnerable elements. Recent…
Recent statistics reveal an alarming increase in accidents involving pedestrians (especially children) crossing the street. A common philosophy of existing pedestrian detection approaches is that this task should be undertaken by the moving…
Pedestrian safety is a critical public health priority, with pedestrian fatalities accounting for 18% of all U.S. traffic deaths in 2022. The rising prevalence of distracted walking, exacerbated by mobile device use, poses significant risks…
Although Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) communication can significantly improve pedestrian safety at a signalized intersection, this safety is hindered as pedestrians often do not carry hand-held devices (e.g., Dedicated short-range…
In recent years, road safety has attracted significant attention from researchers and practitioners in the intelligent transport systems domain. As one of the most common and vulnerable groups of road users, pedestrians cause great concerns…
