This study deals with the roundabout traffic accidents by traffic impeding factor. The purpose of this study is to comparatively analyze the characteristics of accidents and to develop the accident models. In pursuing the above, this study used a statistical program SPSS 20.0 to analyze 2,342 accidents occurred within 79 roundabouts in Korea. The main results are as follows. First, 4 accident models which were all statistically significant were developed. Second, the traffic volume and width of right-turn-only lane were analyzed to be common variable in the bus stop related models. The variables such as right-turn-only lane, street light, turning radius of entry lane were selected as specific variables. Especially street light and turning radius of entry lane were evaluated to have negative effects to the accidents. It is, therefore, essential to install the street light and place a sufficient turning radius in order to reduce the roundabout accidents. Finally, the traffic volume and number of entry lane were analyzed to be common variable in the on-street parking related models. Also, the width of right-turn-only lane and bus stop were evaluate to be specific variables in the model with on-street parking. This can be expected to give some implications to making the accident reduction guidelines.

Our country is promoting the introduction of new means of transportation due to insufficient supply according to the existing demand of road traffic. Among them, manless light railroad transit is settled down as the most definite alternative. However, new traffic systems such as manless light railroad have certain difference between characteristics of hardware and software and subway system. Therefore, there will be many differences compared to the existing contingency system when accidents occur. Railway management organization has to establish railway contingency plan and acquire permission from the minister of the Ministry of Land, Transport, and Maritime Affairs. However, as commercial transportation is available, a new traffic system also should establish contingency plan. Therefore, the establishment of systematic contingency plan is suggested in order to analyze characteristics of manless light railroad in the beginning of introduction and to make contingency response available.

신호등 검출은 첨단운전자보조시스템에서 매우 중요하며 최근 신호등 검출 알고리즘의 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 그러나 기존의 영상처리 기반의 신호등검출 알고리즘은 조명의 변화에 민감하다는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 다음과 같은 신호등 검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저 제안하는 컬러맵과 HSV(hue-saturation-value)를 이용하여 신호등의 후보영역을 검출한다. 이후 검출된 신호등 후보영역으로부터 HOG(histogram of oriented gradient) 서술자와 SVM(support vector machine)을 이용하여 신호등을 검출한다. 검출된 신호등 영상을 이용하여 제안하는 Multilayer HOG 서술자를 이용하여 신호등의 방향 정보를 결정한다. 실험결과에서 확인할 수 있듯이 제안하는 알고리즘은 높은 검출성능과 실시간 처리가 가능하다.

본 논문에서는 교차로에 설치된 한 대의 카메라를 활용하여 각 도로로 유입, 유출 되는 교통량을 동시에 측정할 수 있도록 하였으며 그 데이터를 기반으로 영상처리를 통해 신호등을 자동으로 제어하는 새로운 시스템을 제안한다. 또한 왕복 8차선 교차로의 교통량을 한 대의 카메라로 모니터링 가능하게 하여 차선 1개당 1대의 카메라 또는 루프 코일을 사용하던 기존 방식보다 효율적으로 광범위한 교통량 흐름을 통계적으로 모니터링 할 수 있도록 고안하였다. 실시간으로 배경영상이 업데이트되므로 불규칙적인 조건을 갖는 실 상황에서도 자동차 객체가 효율적으로 검지되도록 하였으며 관심영역 설정으로 보다 정확도 높은 교통량 측정을 가능하게 하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 신호등 자동제어 알고리즘을 이용하여 정체가 일어나기 전에 각 도로간 교통량을 조절함으로써 교통 정체로 발생하는 운전자의 시간 낭비 및 에너지 낭비를 예방할 수 있다.

본 연구는 이동통신 로그 데이터를 통해 산출된 교통량 정보를 활용하여 기존 검지기에 준하는 교통량 정보를 추정하기 위해, 머신러닝의 앙상블 기법을 기반으로 하는 최적의 이동통신 기반 교통량 추정 모형을 개발하는 것이다. 이동통신 데이터를 통해 계측된 교통량 등의 정보와 VDS 실측 데이터를 활용하여 머신러닝 모형들을 통해 비교·분석한 결과, LightGBM 모형이 교통량 추정의 최적모형으로 선정되었다. 국도 1, 3, 6호선 검지영역 96개소를 대상으로 교통량 추정 모형의 성능을 평가한 결과, 전체 검지영역의 경우 MAPE 8.49로 교통량 추정 정확도가 91.51%로 분석되었다. VDS가 설치되지 않은 구간의 경우 교통량 추정 정확도는 92.6%로, VDS 설치가 어려운 구간에서도 LightGBM 교통량 추정 모형이 적용 가능하였다.

This paper proposes a new concept of optimal shortest path algorithm which reduce average vehicle wating time and improve average vehicle speed, Electro sensitive traffic system can extend the traffic cycle when three are many vehicles on the road or it can reduce the traffic cycle when there are small vehicles on the road. But electro sensitive traffic light system doesn't control that kind of function when the average vehicle speed is 10km -20km. Therefore, in this paper to reduce vehicle waiting time we developed design of traffic cycle software tool that can arrive destinination as soon as possible using optimal shortest pass algorithm. Computer simulation result proved 10%-32% reducing average vehicle wating time and average vehicle speed which can select shortest route using built in G.P.S. vehicle is better than not being able to select shortest route function.

Advanced traffic signal timing method plays very important role in reducing road congestion and air pollution. Reinforcement learning is considered as superior approach to build traffic light timing scheme by many recent studies. It fulfills real adaptive control by the means of taking real-time traffic information as state, and adjusting traffic light scheme as action. However, existing works behave inefficient in complex intersections and they are lack of feasibility because most of them adopt traffic light scheme whose phase sequence is flexible. To address these issues, a novel adaptive traffic signal timing scheme is proposed. It's based on actor-critic reinforcement learning algorithm, and advanced techniques proximal policy optimization and generalized advantage estimation are integrated. In particular, a new kind of reward function and a simplified form of state representation are carefully defined, and they facilitate to improve the learning efficiency and reduce the computational complexity, respectively. Meanwhile, a fixed phase sequence signal scheme is derived, and constraint on the variations of successive phase durations is introduced, which enhances its feasibility and robustness in field applications. The proposed scheme is verified through field-data-based experiments in both medium and high traffic density scenarios. Simulation results exhibit remarkable improvement in traffic performance as well as the learning efficiency comparing with the existing reinforcement learning-based methods such as 3DQN and DDQN.

We propose a visible light road-to-vehicle communication system at intersection as one of ITS technique. In this system, the communication between vehicle and a LED traffic light is approached using LED traffic light as a transmitter, and on-vehicle high-speed camera as a receiver. The LEDs in the transmitter are emitted in 500Hz and those emitting LEDs are captured by a high-speed camera for making communication. Here, the luminance value of each LED in the transmitter should be found for consecutive frames to achieve effective communication. For this purpose, first the transmitter should be identified, then it should be tracked for consecutive frames while the vehicle is moving, by processing the images from the high-speed camera. In our previous work, the transmitter was identified by getting the subtraction of two consecutive frames. In this paper, we mainly introduce an algorithm to track the identified transmitter in consecutive frames. Experimental results using appropriate images showed the effectiveness of the proposal.

신호등은 운전자가 반드시 인지하고 조치를 취해야 할 교통 정보를 포함하고 있으며 이를 실시간으로 검출하여 운전자에게 알리는 것은 매우 중요하다. 그러나 신호등의 크기가 전체 영상에서 차지하는 비율이 낮고, 다른 객체에 의하여 가려지는 경우가 많아 실제 신호등 검출이 어려운 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 색상 기반 돌출맵과 형태학 정보를 이용한 신호등을 검출 방법을 제안한다. 돌출맵은 시각적 주의집중 영역을 검출하는데 사용되는데, 이를 개량한 색상 기반 돌출맵은 신호등의 색상과 형태를 검출 것에 적합함을 실험을 통하여 확인하였으며, 제안된 모델은 PC 환경에서 98.14%의 검출율과 83.52%의 재현율을 달성하였다.
