The application of data mining techniques to model visual distraction of bicyclists

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel approach to modelling visual distraction of bicyclists is presented.

• A bicycle simulator for road traffic safety research is presented.

• We combine random forests for variable selection and support vector machine for modelling.

• A combination of qualitative and quantitative data provides the best results.

• The method may be used for automated vehicles to detect distracted bicyclists.
