Motion planning in an uncertain dynamic environment is a complex task, especially when obstacles move in a non-linear fashion. In this paper obstacles refer to other vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles, riders etc. In such cases, predicting the obstacles’ kinematics requires a forecast of the obstacles’ trajectories. The choice of the forecast time hor...

Analysis of accidents that involve vehicles and pedestrians requires accurate reproduction of the dynamics of the vehicles and pedestrians immediately prior to and during the accident. In many cases, only centimeters and milliseconds separate survival from disaster, particularly when high-speed aggressive drivers and careless pedestrians are involv...

Data on traffic accidents clearly points to road black spots, where the accident rate is always high. However, road safety research is still far from understanding why this particular place on a road is risky. The reason is the lack of sufficient knowledge on how pedestrians and drivers interact when facing a potentially dangerous traffic situation...

The data on traffic accidents clearly point to the "Black Spots", where the accident rate remains high in months and years. However, road safety research is still far from understanding why this certain place on a road is risky. We tackle the problem by developing SAFEPED, multi agent microscopic 3D simulation of cars' and pedestrians' dynamics at...
