Severity Prediction of Traffic Accidents with Recurrent Neural Networks

In this paper, a deep learning model using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) was developed and employed to predict the injury severity of traffic accidents based on 1130 accident records that have occurred on the North-South Expressway (NSE), Malaysia over a six-year period from 2009 to 2015. Compared to traditional Neu...

Optimized Neural Architecture for Automatic Landslide Detection from High‐Resolution Airborne Laser

An accurate inventory map is a prerequisite for the analysis of landslide susceptibility, hazard, and risk. Field survey, optical remote sensing, and synthetic aperture radar techniques are traditional techniques for landslide detection in tropical regions. However, such techniques are time consuming and costly. In add...

A Two-Stage Optimization Strategy for Fuzzy Object-Based Analysis Using Airborne LiDAR and High-Resol

In the last decade, object-based image analysis (OBIA) has been extensively recognized as an effective classification method for very high spatial resolution images or integrated data from different sources. In this study, a two-stage optimization strategy for fuzzy object-based analysis using airborne LiDAR was propos...

Drone-based land-cover mapping using a fuzzy unordered rule induction algorithm integrated into objec

Land-cover maps provide essential data for a wide range of practical and small-scale applications. A number of data sources appropriate for land-cover extraction are available. Among these, images captured using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are low cost, have very high resolution, and can be acquired at any time wit...

Assessment of the effects of expressway geometric design features on the frequency of accident c

Accurate information on accidents and on the relevant factors that affect them is critical for establishing the relationship between accident frequency and explanatory factors. In this study, we present a simplified method to extract road geometric features accurately from very high-resolution laser scanning data to an...
