Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Speed, volume and density are the basic parameters required for any traffic engineering study and most importantly for estimation of roadway capacity.Erroneous capacity estimation leads to faulty and unacceptable design of roadway facilities.For accurate data collection of these basic parameters, video photographic technique is mostly preferred over manual technique in order to achieve flawless roadway capacity estimation.But due to a vast spectrum of constraints, even with the use of video photographic technique, it becomes difficult to collect traffic data accurately which in turn injects huge amount of error in the outcome of the analysis.In the conventional methods of traffic data collection, researchers often adopt the aerial photographic technique to capture error free data from the field.In this present study ground-based video photographic technique was adopted to capture the traffic data and a drone-based technique of traffic data collection was also used to capture the traffic data simultaneously so to propose suitable calibration to be applied.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
