Only a small minority of road incident detection algorithms (IDAs) have been designed for
use in urban road networks. A review of the literature conducted by the authors revealed that …

A new test bed for automatic incident detection (AID) systems uses real-time traffic video and
data feeds from the Ontario, Canada, Ministry of Transportation COMPASS advanced traffic …

The US Department of Transportation (US-DOT) estimates that over half of all congestion
events are caused by highway incidents rather than by rush-hour traffic in big cities. Real …

Non-recurrent congestion or incidents are detrimental to the operability and efficiency of
busy urban transport networks. There exist multiple automatic incident detection algorithms …

Over the past decades, tremendous research efforts have been proposed to deploy
Automatic Incident Detection Systems (AIDSs) onto urban roads. As a result, new challenges …

Timely and accurate incident detection is an essential part of any successful advanced traffic
management system. The complex nature of arterial road traffic makes automated incident …

Use of automatic incident detection algorithms (AIDA) in advanced freeway management
systems has been sporadic and scarce. The current study investigates the causes of such …

This paper presents a new automated incident detection framework for both freeways and
urban arterial roads. A common modular architecture that includes a special data processing …

In this paper, a new methodology is presented for real-time detection and characterization of
incidents on surface streets. The proposed automatic incident detection approach is capable …

Timely detection of accidents, vehicle breakdowns, and events that obstruct normal traffic
flow is critical to successful implementation of an incident management system in combating …
