Optimization analysis in reconstruction of vehicle collision accidents with deficient EDR data

The possibility of traffic accident reconstruction using event data Recorders: A review

“…The accuracy of event reconstruction using data from the recording device is significantly affected by the type of maneuver to be reconstructed (rectilinear/curvilinear movement), level of acceleration/deceleration, duration of maneuver, etc… Experimental studies have also shown that vehicle properties can affect accuracy of reconstruction (Han, 2018), but also from the data frequency (defined number of samples, according to the recorded data (e.g. delta-V up to 100 times per second; activation of the service brake 2 times per second...)) (Nat'l Highway Traffic Safety Admin., 2011).…”

Methods for fusing uncertain results obtained from different models in accident reconstruction

“…Unfortunately, traces always cannot be measured precisely because they will vanish slowly under the influence of passers-by or other vehicles or the weather. In order to make the reconstructed result more precise and reliable, lots of reconstruction methods are proposed, such as methods based on the braking distance of the vehicle [2,3], the throw distance of the pedestrian [3][4][5], the deformation of the vehicle [6,7], the injury of the human body [8][9][10], simulations (almost all traces), videos and data from some attached active safety equipment [8,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Accordingly, many uncertainty analysis methods are also proposed [2,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26].…”
