Background: Ensuring a livable and healthy built environment that addresses challenges of climate change and the pandemic of noncommunicable diseases should include creating an environment support of physical activity. This study aims to build local evidence on improving the residential areas by assessing the built environment of 4 residential areas in Oman.
Methods: This study uses the Microscale Audit of Pedestrian Streetscapes-Mini, a 15-item tool with 4 subscales (destinations and land use, aesthetics, pedestrian infrastructure, and crossings/traffic safety), to conduct environmental audits of 4 areas in Barka and Nizwa, Oman.

Right-turning vehicles and pedestrians share the right-of-way during the permitted signal phase at intersections in countries with right-handed traffic. Although right-turning vehicles are required to stop or yield to pedestrians according to the traffic rules, there still remains circumstances where the two will compete, posing significant safety risks to pedestrians. To investigate the impact mechanism of right-turn configurations, driver characteristics, and traffic operational features on vehicle-pedestrian conflict risk, a driving simulator experiment was conducted.

With the imminent widespread integration of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) into our traffic ecosystem, understanding the factors that impact their safety is a vital research area. To that end, this study assessed the impact of a wide range of factors on the frequency of AV-road user conflicts. The study utilized the Woven prediction and validation dataset, which contains over 1000 h of data collected from the onboard sensors of 20 AVs in California.

Video-based pedestrian re-identification (Re-ID) is used to re-identify the same person across different camera views. One of the key problems is to learn an effective representation for the pedestrian from video. However, it is difficult to learn an effective representation from one single modality of a feature due to complicated issues with video, such as background, occlusion, and blurred scenes.
