... 12 Surrogates for Road Departure Crashes Overview of Available Surrogates In Chapter 5, the statistical analysis of candidate surrogates will assume a basic form of discrete (Boolean) events.
From page 13...
... 13 deviation is based on estimates from the vision-based lane tracker on the FOT vehicle, measuring the offset of the vehicle from the center of the lane. Applying a threshold to this (see the next section for more detail)
From page 14...
... 14 The final three surrogates in Table 4.1 are more relevant to using combinations of candidate variables. Visual interruption (VINT)
From page 15...
... 15 The 5th percentile global value of TTEC was also determined and used as a threshold to define TTEC events for statistical modeling. A TTEC event was defined as an instance when the vehicle's TTEC was less than the 5th percentile global TTEC value.
