Description

This thesis proposes an Extreme Value Theory modelling framework to assess corridor-wide pedestrian crash risk using autonomous vehicle sensor data. The proposed framework was applied to vehicle-pedestrian traffic conflicts on an arterial corridor in Miami, USA, captured by a fleet of Argoverse autonomous vehicles—a Ford Motors subsidiary. The proposed extreme value modelling framework with the block maxima sampling technique has been found to provide a reasonable estimate of historical pedestrian crash frequencies on that corridor. This thesis demonstrates the potential of using autonomous vehicle sensor data for network-level pedestrian safety.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
