Sommario
On May 21st, 2025 at 2.15 pm Marcello Cellina, PHD Student in Information Technology, will hold a seminar on "Analysis and Modelling of Road-User Behaviour" at DEIB Conference Room "Emilio Gatti" (Building 20).
Road safety and crash reduction strongly rely on analyzing and modeling how road users behave. This seminar introduces the main metrics used to describe driving, the methods for data collection (naturalistic studies, test-track experiments, simulations), and the cognitive and motivational models explaining how drivers interact with their environment.
Real-world applications are discussed, ranging from vehicle–driver stability phenomena to micromobility dynamics (bicycles and e-scooters), with special focus on vulnerable road users. Finally, we outline prospective (counterfactual simulations) and retrospective (real crash data) approaches for evaluating the benefits of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous technologies, highlighting key regulatory frameworks.
