Pedestrian mobility models are becoming essential in several technologies and techniques. Applications of these models could be found in the areas of infrastructure design, evacuation planning, architecture, robot-human interaction, pervasive computing or navigation and localization. Within the scope of this paper, the purpose of such models is to realistically represent the stochastic nature o...

Pedestrian volume information is critical to study traffic safety as well as to plan for pedestrian friendly design. We present a model used to estimate the pedestrian volumes for street intersections in the city of San Francisco, California. Through regression analysis at multiple geographical scales, a set of socioeconomic variables and built-environment characteristics were examined. Three f...
