Crash pulse data from event data recorders in rigid barrier tests
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In recent years, major advances in field data collection and analysis have been achieved through the integration of real-world vehicle crash data captured by on-board, electronic, event data recorders (EDRs). For some time, data has been publicly available from EDR’s in General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler vehicles. Recently, Toyota has provided a proprietary tool through which researchers can access EDRs installed in their vehicles. The current study looks at the crash data that are available and explores the accuracy of this information. The study uses a series of staged collisions with EDR-equipped vehicles and compares data downloaded from these devices to equivalent information captured by laboratory instrumentation. Full-frontal crash tests, conducted by Transport Canada, at 48 km/h into a rigid barrier are used. The results show generally good agreement between the two datasets, with some limitations in the EDR-reported data being noted. These comparisons of data obtained from on-board vehicle EDRs, with equivalent information collected using sophisticated laboratory instrumentation, provide a valuable measure of confidence in the use of similar data collected from real-world events.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
