| Research Abstract |
We have developed a traffic simulation program for estimating the risk of the traffic accidents caused by the pedestrians and/or the vehicles. The traffic accidents occur due to the trouble of the road and carelessness of the pedestrians and/or the drivers. In this system, the roads are expressed in sets of convex polygons to find a potential dangerous part on the road. Moreover, we propose the action plan model as a behavior model of the pedestrians and the vehicles. In addition, a dangerous width in the pedestrians and the vehicles is defined and the dangerous conflict indicator is used as a safety indicator.
