Dong, Y. (author), Lu, Xingmin (author), Li, Ruohan (author), Song, Wei (author), van Arem, B. (author), Farah, H. (author)The burgeoning navigation services using digital maps provide great convenience to drivers. However, there are sometimes anomalies in the lane rendering map images, which might mislead human drivers and result in unsafe driving. To accurately and effectively detect the anomalies, this paper transforms lane rendering image anomaly detection into...poster 2024

Raju, Narayana (author), van Beinum, Aries (author), Farah, H. (author)Traffic microsimulation is a commonly used tool in traffic engineering. Given its flexibility and cost-efficiency, it is increasingly used for evaluating traffic safety. In real life traffic, unsafety is in many cases due to human error in driving behaviour. In traffic microsimulations however, driving behaviour is highly dependent on the...poster 2023

Sevenster, A.L.A. (author), Farah, H. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), Zgonnikov, A. (author)Overtaking on two-lane roads can lead to increased collision risks due to drivers' errors in evaluating whether or not to accept the gap to the vehicle in the opposite lane. Understanding these gap acceptance decisions can help mitigate the risks associated with overtaking. Previous research on overtaking has focused on the factors...journal article 2023

Oskina, M.I. (author), Farah, H. (author), Morsink, Peter (author), Happee, R. (author), van Arem, B. (author)The operation of automated vehicles (AVs) on shared roads requires attention concerning their interactions with vulnerable road users (VRUs), such as cyclists. This study investigates the safety of cyclists when they interact with an AV and compares it with their interaction with a conventional vehicle. Overall, 29 cyclists participated in a...journal article 2023

(author)Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are being introduced to the traffic system with the promise of improving current traffic status. However, the empirical data also indicate contrary effects with estimated higher crash rate and change of crash patterns. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the driving behavior of AVs and human-driven vehicles ...journal article 2023

Zhang, Li (author), Dong, Y. (author), Farah, H. (author), van Arem, B. (author)The gradual deployment of automated vehicles (AVs) results in mixed traffic where AVs will interact with human-driven vehicles (HDVs). Thus, social-aware motion planning and control while considering interactions with HDVs on the road is critical for AVs' deployment and safe driving under various maneuvers.

Mohammad, Samir H.A. (author), Farah, H. (author), Zgonnikov, A. (author)Driving automation holds significant potential for enhancing traffic safety. However, effectively handling interactions with human drivers in mixed traffic remains a challenging task. Several models exist that attempt to capture human behavior in traffic interactions, often focusing on gap acceptance. However, it is not clear how models of an...conference paper 2023

Vos, J. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author), Farah, H. (author), Hagenzieker, Marjan (author)Although much research is done on speed and gaze behaviour inside curves, there is little understanding of which cues drivers use to anticipate and slow down while approaching curves. Therefore, an on road experiment was conducted in which 31 participants drove through six freeway curves in their own car. During the experiment, look-ahead...journal article 2023

Afghari, A.P. (author), Vos, J. (author), Farah, H. (author), Papadimitriou, E. (author)Driver anticipation plays a crucial role in crashes along horizontal curves. Anticipation is related to road predictability and can be influenced by roadway geometric design. Therefore, it is essential to understand which geometric design elements can influence anticipation and cause the road to be (un)predictable. This exercise, however, is not...journal article 2023
