PURPOSES : This study aimed to analyze traffic accidents at circular intersections, and discuss accident reduction strategies based on land use and vehicle type. METHODS : Traffic accident data from 2010 to 2014 were collected from the "traffic accident analysis system" (TAAS) data set of the Road Traffic Authority. To develop the accident rate model, a multiple linear regression model was used. Explanatory variables such as geometry and traffic volume were used to develop the models. RESULTS : The main results of the study are as follows. First, it was found that the null hypotheses that land use and vehicle type do not affect the accident rate should be rejected. Second, 16 accident rate models, which are statistically significant (with high $R^2$ values), were developed. Finally, the area of the central island, number of speed humps, entry lane width, circulatory roadway width, bus stops, and pedestrian crossings were analyzed to determine their effect on accidents according to the type of land use and vehicle. CONCLUSIONS : Through the developed accident rate models, it was revealed that the accident factors at circular intersections changed depending on land use and vehicle type. Thus, selecting the appropriate location of bus stops for trucks, widening entry lanes for cars, and installing splitter islands and optimal lighting for motorcycles were determined to be important for reducing the accident rate. Additionally, the evaluation showed that commercial and mixed land use had a weaker effect on accidents than residential land use.

Packet sampling is the techniques to collect a part of the packets through network and analyze the characteristicsof the traffic for managing the network and keeping security. This paper presents a study on the sampling techniques applied to DDoS traffic and on the characteristics of the sampled traffic to detect DDoS attack efficiently and improve traffic analysis capacity. Three famous sampling techniques are evaluated with different sampling rates on various DDoS traffics. To analyze traffic characteristics, one of the DDoS attack detection method. Traffic Rate Analysis (TRA) is used. Simulation results verify that using sampling techniques preserve the traffic characteristics of DDoS and do not significantly reduce the detection accuracy.

The arrangement of I-picture starting times of multiplexed variable bit .ate (VBR) MPEG videos may significantly affect the cell loss ratio (CLR) characteristics of the multiplexed traffic. This paper presents an efficient I-picture arrangement method which can minimize the CLR of the multiplexed traffic when multiple VBR MPEG videos are multiplexed onto a single constant bit rate link. In the proposed method, we use the probability that the arrival rate exceeds the link capacity as the measure for the CLR of the multiplexed traffic. Simulation results show that the proposed method can find more optimal arrangement than existing methods in respect of the CLR.

PURPOSES : Traffic situation of Seoul City is different each administrative district. because each administrative district population, average travel speed, etc are different. thus, regionally differentiated policy is necessary. METHODS : In this study, first, it is to implement the cluster analysis using the traffic factor of twenty-five administrative districts in Seoul, categorize it into the cluster and understand the properties. second, related factors of speed were derived. and method to increase the speed was investigated. we choose the eleven traffic factors such as the number of traffic accident cases, total length, speed, the number of cross section, the number of cross section per km, the rate of roads, registered cars, population attending office and school, population density, area. RESULTS : In the results, first, we could categorize the Seoul-City administrative district into three clusters. in order to find Factors associated with speed a simple regression analysis was performed. and the number of intersections per km is closely related to the speed. CONCLUSIONS : Through this study, transportation policies reflecting local traffic-related characteristics are required.

Lots of research and development works have been actively focused on the self-driving vehicles, locally and globally. In order to implement the self-driving vehicles, lots of fundamental core technologies need to be successfully developed and, specially, it is noted that traffic lights detection and recognition system is an essential part of the computer vision technologies in the self-driving vehicles. Up to nowadays, most conventional algorithm for detecting and recognizing traffic lights are mainly based on the color signal analysis, but these approaches have limits on the performance improvements that can be achieved due to the color signal noises and environmental situations. In order to overcome the performance limits, this paper introduces the morphological analysis for the traffic lights recognition. That is, by considering the color component analysis and the shape analysis such as rectangles and circles simultaneously, the efficiency of the traffic lights recognitions can be greatly increased. Through several simulations, it is shown that the proposed method can highly improve the recognition rate as well as the mis-recognition rate.

It is important to collect and analyze the data from the traffic accident analysis system and the National Statistical Office to reduce the traffic accident rate of the elderly, who are the weakest. In particular, it is more important to analyze the data in areas where the elderly population is large and where accidents occur frequently. This paper visualizes and analyzes the data of elderly traffic accidents that occurred in recent 5 years in the area where many elderly people live in Buyeo-gun. The elderly traffic accident type, accident area, and location data of the elderly can be useful for the improvement measures and related decision making to reduce the elderly traffic accidents.

Road conditions and weather conditions are very important factors in the case of traffic accident fatalities in fog and ice sections that occur on roads in winter. In this paper, a simulation was performed to estimate the traffic accident risk rate assuming traffic accident prediction data. In addition, in this paper, in order to reduce traffic accidents and prevent traffic accidents, factor analysis and traffic accident fatality rates were predicted using the WEKA data mining technique and TENSOR FLOW open source data on traffic accident fatalities provided by the Korea Transportation Corporation.

This research explores the question how interactions between customer and firm affect firm growth. To test suggested hypotheses, this study collects data on social commerce industry in Korea during the period from the beginning of social commerce industry in Korea, May 2010, to March 2012, and investigates the effect of social media on the growth of social commerce firms. We suggest two hypotheses in this study. First, as web traffic inflow through social media into a focal social commerce increases, the growth rate of the focal social commerce increases. Second, the more diverse social media channel through which web traffic inflows into a focal social commerce, the weaker the positive effect of web traffic inflow on the growth rate of the focal social commerce. Analysis of data shows that inflow through social media is positively related to the growth of social commerce. In addition, our analysis shows that inflow channel diversity weakens the positive relationship between web traffic inflow through social media and growth rate of social commerce firms. These results suggest that firms need to concentrate on few social media in order to attract customers. The study contributes to understanding how interaction between firms and customers influences the growth of the firm.

Traffic offloading is a promising solution to solve the explosive growth of mobile traffic. One of offloading schemes, in LIPA/SIPTO(Local IP Access and Selected IP Traffic Offload) offloading, we can offload mobile traffic that can satisfy QoS requirement for application. In addition, it is necessary for traffic offloading using social context due to large traffic from SNS. Thus, we propose the LIPA/SIPTO offloading algorithm using social context. We define the application selection probability using social context, the application popularity. Then, we find the optimal offloading weighting factor to maximize the QoS(Quality of Service) of small cell users in term of effective data rate. Finally, we determine the offloading ratio by this application selection probability and optimal offloading weighting factor. By performance analysis, the effective data rate achievement ratio of the proposed algorithm is similar with the conventional one although the total offloading ratio of the proposed algorithm is about 46 percent of the conventional one.

Increase of hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP)-based video popularity causes that broadband and Internet service providers' links transmit mainly multimedia content. Network planning, traffic engineering or congestion control requires understanding of the statistical properties of network traffic; therefore, it is desirable to investigate the characteristic of traffic traces generated, among others, by systems which employ adaptive bit-rate streaming. In our work, we investigate traffic originating from 120 client-server pairs, situated in an emulated laboratory environment, and multiplexed onto a single network link. We show that the structure of the traffic is distinct from the structure generated by first and second generation of HTTP video systems, and furthermore, not similar to the structure of general Internet traffic. The obtained traffic exhibits negative correlations, anti-persistence, and its distribution function is skewed to the right. Furthermore, we show that the traffic generated by clients employing the same or similar play-out strategies is positively correlated and synchronised (clustered), whereas traffic originated from different play-out strategies shows negative or no correlations.
