In this paper, three groups of random parameters logit models with heterogeneity in means (and variances) are developed to investigate the unobserved heterogeneity and temporal stability of the determinants affecting driver injury severity outcomes across different damage locations among single-vehicle crashes that occurred under adverse weather conditions. A three-year crash dataset gathered from January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2017, in Ohio is utilized. Three crash injury severity categories including no injury, minor injury, and severe injury are identified as outcome variables, while crash characteristics, driver characteristics, temporal characteristics, vehicle characteristics, roadway characteristics, and environment characteristics are regarded as potential predictors influencing driver injury severities. Additionally, </span>likelihood ratio tests<span> and marginal effects are used to assess the temporal instability and impact location non-transferability of the explanatory variables. The results indicate an overall temporal and locational instability of model estimates while several determinants are identified to have consistent effects on injury severity outcomes such as animal-involved collisions, old drivers, safety restraint usage, female drivers, physically impaired drivers, and vehicles with insurance. This study also quantifies and characterizes the net effect of year-to-year and location-to-location shifts through probability differences between out-of-sample predictions and within-sample observations. Varying magnitudes and inconsistent directions of distribution characteristics (mean, skewness, kurtosis, and prediction accuracy) in the probability differences across different impact locations over time are captured. Moreover, this study indicates that the non-transferability of collision locations has a greater impact on the prediction accuracy than the temporal instability. The findings could potentially serve as a reference for transportation administrators to formulate effective safety strategies to better protect drivers from adverse-road-related crashes.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":47520,"journal":{"name":"Analytic Methods in Accident Research","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 100305"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135614947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing EVT real-time crash-risk analysis studies have only focused on using block maxima models. This study proposes a dynamic Bayesian hierarchical peak over threshold modeling approach to estimate real-time crash-risk based on traffic conflicts. The proposed approach combines quantile regression, dynamic updating approach, Bayesian hierarchical structure, and the peak over threshold method to generate time-varying generalized Pareto distributions to derive real-time crash-risk measures (i.e., crash probability and return level). The derived real-time crash-risk measures are applied to estimate cycle-level crash-risk at three signalized intersections in Surrey, British Columbia. Five approaches are used to dynamically update the model parameters, including time trend model, generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity process approach, as well as the first-order, second-order, and third-order dynamic linear models. For comparison, static models are also developed. All the developed models are compared in terms of statistical fit and predictive performance. Based on the best fitted dynamic model, cycle-level crash probability and return level are calculated to measure signalized intersection safety at cycle level. The results show that dynamic models considerably outperform static models in terms of statistical fit and predictive performance. Further, the third-order dynamic model has the best performance, which is probably due to that the model incorporates two linear trends to respectively describe the variation of the coefficients as well as its change to better account for the variation in the effect of time-varying covariates. However, it should be noted that the third-order dynamic model development needs more computation time than other dynamic models, which may limit the application of the model.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47520,"journal":{"name":"Analytic Methods in Accident Research","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 100304"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91993090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It evaluates the risk arising from the various concurrent conflicts within a platoon that can occur on high-speed highway driving situations, such as car-following, yielding, and lane changing. We defined the risk field as a finite scalar field produced by traveling vehicles on the road, and we defined the conflict field as the overlapping risk field between any vehicles in proximity on the roadway. The study used a probabilistic trajectory prediction model to construct risk fields and an approximation method to reduce the computational time for real-time applications. To demonstrate the applicability of the proposed new measure, we applied it to real-world trajectory data (NGSIM data from US Highway 101). We compared the results with three traditional conflict-based safety measures: post-encroachment time (PET), modified time-to-collision (MTTC), and deceleration rate to avoid a crash (DRAC). The new measure produced seamless and continuous risk estimations even during time windows when the other measures could not estimate the risk between vehicles. This is a major advantage over traditional measures. The study also developed visual displays of the estimated conflict fields to provide safety analysts with an intuitive and fast understanding of the results of the safety assessments made using the conflict field measure.

This capability enables the estimation of the real-time crash risk using sophisticated modelling techniques, e.g., extreme value theory. However, these models are inherently incapable of forecasting the crash risk of future time periods based on the temporal dependency of crash risks. This study proposes a unified framework of extreme value theory and autoregressive integrated moving average models for forecasting crash risks at signalised intersections. At the first level of this framework, a non-stationary generalised extreme value model has been developed to estimate the real-time rear-end crash risk at the signal cycle level using the video data collected from three signalised intersections in Queensland, Australia. To capture the time-varying effect of different traffic conditions on conflict extremes, traffic flow, speed, shockwave area, and platoon ratio covariates are incorporated into the generalised extreme value model. The signal cycle-level crash risks obtained from the first level form a univariate time series, which is modelled using two variants of autoregressive integrated moving average model to forecast the crash risk of future signal cycles. Results reveal that the autoregressive integrated moving average model with exogenous variables outperforms the model without exogenous variables and can forecast the crash risk for the next 30–35 min with reasonable accuracy. Similarly, results also demonstrate that different crash risk patterns within a typical day are accurately predicted. The proposed framework helps identify the spatiotemporal windows where safety gradually deteriorates over time, thus enabling proactive safety assessment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47520,"journal":{"name":"Analytic Methods in Accident Research","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article 100302"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49729544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from vehicle-bicycle crashes in the state of Florida over a three-year period (from 2019 to 2021 inclusive), separate yearly models of bicyclist-injury severities (with possible outcomes of severe injury, minor injury, and no visible injury) were estimated using a random parameters logit approach with possible heterogeneity in the means and variances of random parameters.

Given such significant safety concerns, a number of earlier studies examined the critical factors contributing towards run-off-road crash severity outcomes, mostly by using the information compiled in the official crash database. However, the official crash databases are less likely to have detailed information on driver behavior (errors/expectations) and roadway environment (roadway geometry and roadside attributes). This study aims to investigate the effects of design consistency measures on run-off-road crash severity mechanisms by applying a random parameters hierarchical ordered Probit model. This study contributes towards existing safety literature by demonstrating a complementary approach to capturing the effects of driver behavior and heterogeneity in roadway environment on run-off-road crash severity outcome through the composite measures of design consistency indices and cosmopolite measures of roadside hazard type variables. Specifically, 17 different functional forms of design consistency indices are developed to capture the behavioral factors from the road-geometric changes in developing run-off-road crash severity models. Further, in examining the effect of different types of the roadside environment on run-off-road crash severity outcomes, seven roadside hazard type variables are generated as a composite function of roadside object type and clear zone (lateral distance to roadside object). The empirical analysis of this study involves a two-step modelling approach - in the first step, the decision tree algorithm is applied to identify the higher-order interaction among independent variables, and in the second step, crash severity models are developed by employing several econometric approaches. The hybrid models are estimated by employing four econometric frameworks, which include Ordered Probit, Hierarchical Ordered Probit, Random Parameters Ordered Probit, and Random parameters Hierarchical Ordered Probit models.

However, a challenging issue of traffic conflict-based crash risk modeling is the selection of an appropriate sample size. Reliable conflict-based crash risk models typically require a large sample size which is always very difficult to collect. Further, when choosing a sample size, the bias-variance trade-off of model estimation is a constant concern. This study proposes an approach for identifying an adequate sample size for conflict-based crash risk estimation models. The appropriate sample size is determined by checking the model convergence and its goodness-of-fit. A quantitative approach for objectively testing the model goodness-of-fit is developed. Both the trace plots and the variation tendencies of Brooks-Gelman-Rubin statistics of parameter simulation chains are examined to inspect the model convergence. A graphical method is also used to check the model goodness of fit. If the model has not converged or fits poorly, then additional samples are required. The proposed method was applied to identify the adequate sample size for a Bayesian hierarchical extreme value theory (EVT) block maxima (BM) model using traffic conflict data from four signalized intersections in the city of Surrey, British Columbia. The indicator, modified time to collision (MTTC), was used to delineate traffic conflicts. A series of stationary and non-stationary Bayesian hierarchical BM models were developed using the cycle-level maximums of negated MTTC. The adequate sample sizes of stationary and non-stationary Bayesian hierarchical BM models were determined separately. Further, two methods of increasing the sample size (i.e., extending the observation period and combining data from different sites) were compared in terms of goodness-of-fit as well as crash estimate accuracy and precision. The results show that for both stationary and non-stationary models, the sample size used is adequate for model convergence and goodness-of-fit. Moreover, adding covariates to the stationary Bayesian hierarchical BM model does not affect the size of the required sample. Extending the observation period outperforms combining data from different sites in terms of goodness-of-fit as well as crash estimation accuracy and precision of non-stationary models. This is likely related to the existence of unmeasured factors that could impair model estimation and inference when merging data from several sites to augment the number of samples.

These metrics can aggregate crash risk along a certain route based on the duration of exposure to unsafe road conditions. This paper applies a Bayesian hierarchal extreme value theory model to trajectories obtained from a drone dataset from Athens, Greece, to develop a safest route algorithm capable of informing users about the safest route in an urban network in real time. The study area selected consists of a rectangular grid made up of 102 signalized and unsignalized intersections. The dynamic crash risk for each link in the network was obtained and used to identify the safest route between any origin–destination pair and the corresponding fastest route. The safest routes were then compared to the fastest routes and were found to be 22% safer on average, resulting in an 11% increased travel time. Moreover, the safest route was identical to the fastest route in 23% of the origin–destination pairs analyzed and had an average similarity of 54% in terms of links. Recognizing the trade-off between safety and mobility, a multi-objective routing methodology was proposed which balances travel time and crash risk using a weighted preference for safety.
