Applying Machine Learning for Improving Performance Classification on Driving Behavior

Traffic accident is a very difficult problem to handle on a large scale in a country. Indonesia is one of the most populated, developing countries that use vehicles for daily activities as its main transportation.  It is also the country with the largest number of car users in Southeast Asia, so driving safety needs to be considered. Using machine learning classification method to determine whether a driver is driving safely or not can help reduce the risk of driving accidents. We created a detection system to classify whether the driver is driving safely or unsafely using trip sensor data, which include Gyroscope, Acceleration, and GPS. The classification methods used in this study are Random Forest (RF) classification algorithm, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) by improving data preprocessing using feature extraction and oversampling methods. This study shows that RF has the best performance with 98% accuracy, 98% precision, and 97% sensitivity using the proposed preprocessing stages compared to SVM or MLP

Travel Mode Identification with Smartphone Sensors

Personal trips in a modern urban society typically involve multiple travel modes. Recognizing a traveller\u27s transportation mode is not only critical to personal context-awareness in related applications, but also essential to urban traffic operations, transportation planning, and facility design. While the state of the art in travel mode recognition mainly relies on large-scale infrastructure-based fixed sensors or on individuals\u27 GPS devices, the emergence of the smartphone provides a promising alternative with its ever-growing computing, networking, and sensing powers. In this thesis, we propose new algorithms for travel mode identification using smartphone sensors. The prototype system is built upon the latest Android and iOS platforms with multimodality sensors. It takes smartphone sensor data as the input, and aims to identify six travel modes: walking, jogging, bicycling, driving a car, riding a bus, taking a subway. The methods and algorithms presented in our work are guided by two key design principles. First, careful consideration of smartphones\u27 limited computing resources and batteries should be taken. Second, careful balancing of the following dimensions (i) user-adaptability, (ii) energy efficiency, and (iii) computation speed. There are three key challenges in travel mode identification with smartphone sensors, stemming from the three steps in a typical mobile mining procedure. They are (C1) data capturing and preprocessing, (C2) feature engineering, and (C3) model training and adaptation. This thesis is our response to the challenges above. To address the first challenge (C1), in Chapter 4 we develop a smartphone app that collects a multitude of smartphone sensor measurement data, and showcase a comprehensive set of de-noising techniques. To tackle challenge (C2), in Chapter 5 we design feature extraction methods that carefully balance prediction accuracy, computation time, and battery consumption. And to answer challenge (C3), in Chapters 6,7 and 8 we design different learning models to accommodate different situations in model training. A hierarchical model with dynamic sensor selection is designed to address the energy consumption issue. We propose a personalized model that adapts to each traveller\u27s specific travel behavior using limited labeled data. We also propose an online model for the purpose of addressing the model updating problem with large scaled data. In addressing the challenges and proposing solutions, this thesis provides an comprehensive study and gives a systematic solution for travel mode detection with smartphone sensors

Intelligent Transportation Related Complex Systems and Sensors

Building around innovative services related to different modes of transport and traffic management, intelligent transport systems (ITS) are being widely adopted worldwide to improve the efficiency and safety of the transportation system. They enable users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and smarter decisions on the use of transport networks. Current ITSs are complex systems, made up of several components/sub-systems characterized by time-dependent interactions among themselves. Some examples of these transportation-related complex systems include: road traffic sensors, autonomous/automated cars, smart cities, smart sensors, virtual sensors, traffic control systems, smart roads, logistics systems, smart mobility systems, and many others that are emerging from niche areas. The efficient operation of these complex systems requires: i) efficient solutions to the issues of sensors/actuators used to capture and control the physical parameters of these systems, as well as the quality of data collected from these systems; ii) tackling complexities using simulations and analytical modelling techniques; and iii) applying optimization techniques to improve the performance of these systems. It includes twenty-four papers, which cover scientific concepts, frameworks, architectures and various other ideas on analytics, trends and applications of transportation-related data
