Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Electronic Variable Messages Signs (VMS) are becoming a common fixture along the motorway landscape. They have been implemented at key locations on major roads to warn motorists of traffic incidents and upcoming special events, and to promote roadside safety. VMS technology is similar throughout the world, but the messages displayed (and how the drivers interpret the information) can vary from city to city and from country to country. The purpose of this paper is to compare and contrast motorist perceptions of VMS effectiveness in Canada and the United Kingdom. The general results on motorist attitudes towards potential use of VMS are also presented. The study is based on VMS evaluation around two major cities in the developed world - Toronto, Canada and Manchester, UK.(A)

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
