One of the critical requirements for AVs is to predict the future trajectories of pedestrians and provide collision warnings in an accurate and prompt manner. Nevertheless, accurate prediction of pedestrian trajectories remains a technical challenge, mainly caused by the heterogeneity of pedestrian crossing behavior and uncertainties in vehicle-pedestrian interactions. This paper proposes a deep learning-based method for pedestrian trajectory prediction and risk assessment, using trajectory data extracted from roadside LiDAR data and corresponding signal phasing information at MLK and Georgia Avenue in Chattanooga, TN. Meanwhile, a set of criteria referred to as the risk factor is established to quantitatively evaluate the risk of the pedestrian crossing behavior, which also serves as a learnable feature. A Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network is proposed, which takes the following data as the input: the pedestrian trajectory data, signal phasing data, and risk factors from the past 10 steps. Meanwhile, the network predicts the pedestrian trajectory and risk factor at the future time step. In the experimental study, the root-mean-square errors between the predicted and ground truth <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> coordinates are 0.225 meters and 0.377 meters, respectively, and the F1 score value for the risk factor is 99.6%, demonstrating the efficacy of the proposed LSTM-based methodology on pedestrian trajectory prediction and risk assessment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54792,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems","volume":"28 6","pages":"Pages 793-805"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88124815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inferring the number of vehicles between trajectory-observed vehicles can make traffic perception more accurate, with which the traffic can be sensed on the whole road. Thus, in the case of mixed traffic flow, a Real-Time Prediction Model was proposed, which is a novel model containing four modules: prior experience of the space headway, linear distribution of velocity and acceleration, identification of traffic shockwave, and filter. The inferred result was calculated in real time. During the test, we used US-101 lane-1 data of the Next Generation Simulation dataset and trajectory-observed vehicles with stochastic distribution for 20% penetration. The length of the study area on the US-101 highway was approximately 2100 feet, which was similar to the communication area of a single RSU. During the evaluation of the model accuracy with the real-world datasets, the error of the inferred vehicle numbers in the study area could be limited to ±5 vehicles almost.

This study aims to find a way to improve prediction accuracy by considering spatial features of stations based on deep learning.

The predict model used can extract spatiotemporal features and accurately predict the citywide stations, and the results show that, for the relative position, the inbound and outbound flow prediction errors of transfer stations and middle stations are the lowest, respectively. As for locational features, the more distant the station is from the city center, the more accurate the results are. For stations where land use is dominated by work and living services, the predictions are more accurate. The error rate is higher for stations whose services are mainly tourism, transportation, and leisure services.

The simplicity stems from the necessity of controlling under any trajectory penetration rate. The two policies differ on the possibilities of the control infrastructure to be implemented. The first one minimizes oversaturation by deviating from a reference pre-timed signal plan. This signal plan can be an existing one or an estimated one from aggregating trajectory data.

This second policy is intended to be used in SCATS-like systems where signal plans are limited to a pre-defined discrete set.

This study intends to include the sensor failure phenomenon in AVI Sensor Location Model (SLM) for reliable observation of ODM and route flows. While reliability and cost are usually two conflicting objectives, we try to answer the following question “Is it possible to improve reliability without increasing the cost and only by changing sensor deployment?”. In addressing this study question, first, it is shown that the solution of recent AVI SLMs are not unique. Second, we show that the reliability level of multiple optimal solutions is not the same. Third, two Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) AVI SLMs for reliable observation and parital observation of ODM/route flows are developed considering the sensor failure phenomenon. The models are formulated such that their solutions are selected from the set of multiple optimal solutions. Fourth, a linear surrogate term for reliability is introduced and mathematically proven to be included in the proposed models. Finally, the applicability of the proposed models is examined on several middle-scale networks and a real-size network. Furthermore, a heuristic algorithm is customized to solve the models for the real-size network.

Specifically, we first denoise the speed data derived from trajectory data by the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to mitigate the effect of spontaneous random speed fluctuation. Next, we identify trajectory curves’ turning points where a vehicle runs into a shockwave and its speed presents a high standard deviation within a short interval. Furthermore, the Density-based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise algorithm (DBSCAN) combined with traffic flow features is adopted to split the turning points into different clusters, each corresponding to a shockwave with constant speed. Last, the one-norm distance regression method is used to estimate the propagation speed of detected shockwaves. The proposed framework was applied to the field data collected from the I-80 and US-101 freeway by the Next Generation Simulation (NGSIM) program.
