최근 국민소득 증가로 개인 보유차량이 급격하게 증가하였다. 한정된 국토 내에서 급격한 차량 증가는 심각한 교통 혼잡을 야기 시켰고, 이러한 교통 혼잡으로 인해 도로 위에서 낭비되는 교통혼잡 비용은 매년 증가하는 추세이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 영상처리를 이용한 교통신호 제어시스템을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 교차로에 설치된 카메라를 이용하여 각 도로로 유입 유출되는 교통량을 동시에 측정하여 심각한 교통 정체가 일어나기 전에 이를 미연에 방지 할 수 있는 교통신호 제어시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 교통신호 제어시스템을 주간에 적용한 경우는 교통량을 정확하게 측정 할 수 있었으나, 야간 일반 카메라로 측정한 결과 72.8%, 야간에 적외선 카메라로 헤드 라이트를 고려해 실험한 결과 86.6%의 향상된 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Traffic lights at night are usually framed in the image as bright regions bigger than the real size due to glow effect. Moreover, the colors of lighting region saturate to white. So it is difficult to distinguish between different traffic lights at night. Many related studies have tried to decrease the glow effect in the process of capturing images. Some studies drastically decreased the shutter time of the camera to reduce the adverse effect by the glow. However, this makes the video too dark. This study proposes a new idea which utilizes the glow effect. It examines the outer radial region of traffic light. It presents an algorithm to discriminate the color of traffic light by the analysis of the outer radial region. The advantage of the proposed method is that it can recognize traffic lights in the image captured by an ordinary black box camera. Experimental results using seven short videos show the performance of traffic light recognition reporting the precision of 96.4% and the recall of 98.2%. These results show that the proposed method is valid and effective.

In this paper, a robust traffic light detection method is proposed by using vision sensor and DGPS(Difference Global Positioning System). The conventional vision-based detection methods are very sensitive to illumination change, for instance, low visibility at night time or highly reflection by bright light. To solve these limitations in visual sensor, DGPS is incorporated to determine the location and shape of traffic lights which are available from traffic light database. Furthermore the geometric relationship between traffic light and vision sensor is used to locate the traffic light in the image by using DGPS information. The empirical results show that the proposed method improves by 51% in detection rate for night time with marginal improvement in daytime environment.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of sleep/wake behavior for shiftwork in air traffic controllers (ATCs) using wrist actigraph for ten workers on a continuous full-day three-team three-shift system of forward rotation including on-duty and off-duty periods. The wrist actigraph data were recorded for three days (one shift cycle) for each subject. The mean activity counts during an on-duty period progressively increased from the night, the swing, to the morning shifts. The doze length during on-duty periods showed decreases in the morning and swing shifts as compared to the night shift. Total sleep time (TST) and sleep efficiency (SE) during off-duty periods increased in the morning-1 and swing-night shift compared to the morning-2 shift. Finally, I discussed the role of doze-taking during the burden on night shift ATCs.

Objective: Objective of this study is to provide characteristics of injury frequency and severity by driving condition in large truck-related traffic collisions. Background: Traffic accidents involving large trucks draw a lot of attention in accident prevention and management policies since they bring about severe human and financial damages. Method: In order to identify the major risk factors of accidents by driving condition, 255 recognized traffic accidents by large truck drivers were analyzed in terms of time of the day, road type, and shape of the road. Results: The driving conditions in the results are represented by the following form of combination, "Road Type (Non-expressway or Express) - Shape of Roads (Straight, Curved, Downhill, or Intersection) - Time of Accidents (Day or Night)". In the analysis of injury frequency, Non-expressway-Straight-Day condition was the most frequent one. Meanwhile, Expressway-Curved-Day, Non-expressway-Curved-Night and Non-expressway-Intersection-Night were evaluated as high level in view of injury severity. Also, Expressway-Straight-Night is the driving condition that is the highest in risk among the conditions that have to be managed as grade "High". Non-expressway-Straight-Night, Non-expressway-Downhill-Day, and Non-expressway-Curved-Day are also categorized as grade "High". Conclusion and Application: Safety managers in the fields require basic information on accident prevention that can be easily understood. The research findings will serve as a practical guideline for establishing preventive measures for traffic accidents.

This research helps you understand the road traffic noise levels by using a noise map. We have observed the change of the road traffic noise levels around $07:00{\sim}08:30\;and\;22:00{\sim}23:00$ using the noise map in the city. The road traffic noise level is very high both at noon and at night around a beltway and an interchange that is linked with a highway. It seems that the main route of so many vehicles, which are at neighboring cities such as N city and D and H districts and which avoid traffic jams in the city, is the beltway and interchange. The road traffic noise level of a nearby express bus terminal, railroad station, and airport is more than 75 dB at noon and 65 dB at night. The road traffic noise level of G city at night is observed to be more than 55 dB. The noise levels of a residence area and a university are higher than a road with high noise levels when the commuters drive to work. The end of the day exceeds 11 o'clock because of a culture level of development that arouses spare time, eating out, adults' drinking culture, nightlife of the youth, etc. Therefore, the road traffic noise level is high during late night hours, and it exceeds regulatory guidelines(55 dB(A)). It also damages the residence area that is located near the road.

원자력발전소 사고시 방사성물질이 발전소외 지역으로 유출될 경우 주민을 안전하게 보호하기 위한 조치의 일환으로 주민소개가 고려된다. 소개시간 산정에 필요한 인자를 도출하고, 각각의 인자에 대해 원전 주변의 현장자료를 토대로 부지주변의 교통환경 여건을 반영하여 울진원전의 방사선비상계획구역 내의 주민전체를 소개시키는데 소요되는 시간을 예측하였다. 평상교통, 여름철 첨두교통, 그리고 겨울철 첨두교통에 대해 각각 주간 및 야간, 평상기상 및 악기상의 경우로 나누어 12가지의 주민소개 시나리오를 설정하였다. 비상계획구역 경계 남단과 북단에서 모든 소개차량(인구)이 비상계획구역을 벗어나는 데 걸리는 시간은 전체적으로는 $210\~315$분 정도로 예측되었다. 소개시간은 밤이 낮보다 약 45분 정도 더 소요되는 것으로 예측되었다.

본 연구의 목적은 가로구간 사고특성을 분석하고 주 야간 사고모형을 개발하는데 있다. 이를 위해 청주시 가로구간 24개 도로를 연구대상으로 2007년 사고 자료를 이용한다. 연구의 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 가로구간의 주간 사고건수가 야간 사고건수보다 많았지만, 사고율에서는 야간사고율이 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 둘째, 4개의 사고모형이 개발되었으며, 이들은 통계적으로 모두 유의한 것으로 분석되었다. 마지막으로, 모형에 채택된 독립변수를 활용하여 주 야간 사고모형의 차이가 비교 분석되었다.

본 연구에서는 대중교통 이용객의 대부분이 사용하는 스마트카드 자료를 이용하여 실제 심야시간 통행량을 추정하고, 이를 현재 심야버스 노선과 비교하여 KT통신사에서 심야시간에 발생한 통화량을 기준으로 선정한 심야버스 노선과 실제 심야통행량을 비교하였다. 심야버스와 심야통행량을 비교하기 위해 일치도와 관련된 지표를 제시하고, 현재 얼마나 서비스가 제공되고 있는지 계산하였다. 연구의 특이한 점은 같은 정류장명을 가진 버스정류장이라도 어느 방향에 있느냐에 따라 속한 행정동이 다르기 때문에, 기준이 되는 영향권의 지표를 지하철역으로 잡고, 지하철역과 인접한 행정동을 지하철역의 영향권의 범위로 설정한 것이다. 심야버스가 심야시간 주요 교통수단으로 자리 잡은 만큼, 실제 교통량을 계산하여 노선을 선정한다면, 더 나은 서비스를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
