The use of naturalistic driving studies (NDSs) for driver behavior research has skyrocketed over the past two decades. Intersections are a key target for traffic safety, with up to 25-percent of fatalities and 50-percent injuries from traffic crashes in the United States occurring at intersections. NDSs are increasingly being used to assess driver behavior at intersections and devise strategies to improve intersection safety. A common challenge in NDS intersection research is the need for to combine spatial locations of driver-visited intersections with concurrent video clips of driver trajectories at intersections to extract analysis variables. The intersection identification and driver trajectory video clip extraction process are generally complex and repetitive. We developed a novel R package called ndsintxn to streamline this process and automate best practices to minimize computational time, cost, and manual labor. This paper provides details on the methods and illustrative examples used in the ndsintxn R package.

Process data refer to data recorded in the log files of computer-based items. These data, represented as timestamped action sequences, keep track of respondents response processes of solving the items. Process data analysis aims at enhancing educatio nal assessment accuracy and serving other assessment purposes by utilizing the rich information contained in response processes. The R package ProcData presented in this article is designed to provide tools for processing, describing, and analyzing process data. We define an S3 class proc for organizing process data and extend generic methods summary and print for class proc. Two feature extraction methods for process data are implemented in the package for compressing information in the irregular response processes into regular numeric vectors. ProcData also provides functions for fitting and making predictions from a neural-network-based sequence model. These functions call relevant functions in package keras for constructing and training neural networks. In addition, several response process generators and a real dataset of response processes of the climate control item in the 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment are included in the package.
Naturalistic driving data (NDD) is an important source of information to understand crash causation and human factors and to further develop crash avoidance countermeasures. Videos recorded while driving are often included in such datasets. While the re is often a large amount of video data in NDD, only a small portion of them can be annotated by human coders and used for research, which underuses all video data. In this paper, we explored a computer vision method to automatically extract the information we need from videos. More specifically, we developed a 3D ConvNet algorithm to automatically extract cell-phone-related behaviors from videos. The experiments show that our method can extract chunks from videos, most of which (~79%) contain the automatically labeled cell phone behaviors. In conjunction with human review of the extracted chunks, this approach can find cell-phone-related driver behaviors much more efficiently than simply viewing video.

R is a programming language and environment that is a central tool in the applied sciences for writing program. Its impact on the development of modern statistics is inevitable. Current research, especially for big data may not be done solely using R and will likely use different programming languages; hence, having a modern integrated development environment (IDE) is very important. Atom editor is modern IDE that is developed by GitHub, it is described as A hackable text editor for the 21st Century. This report is intended to present a package deployed entitled Rbox that allows Atom Editor to write and run codes professionally in R.
We present and describe the GPFDA package for R. The package provides flexible functionalities for dealing with Gaussian process regression (GPR) models for functional data. Multivariate functional data, functional data with multidimensional inputs, and nonseparable and/or nonstationary covariance structures can be modeled. In addition, the package fits functional regression models where the mean function depends on scalar and/or functional covariates and the covariance structure is modeled by a GPR model. In this paper, we present the versatility of GPFDA with respect to mean function and covariance function specifications and illustrate the implementation of estimation and prediction of some models through reproducible numerical examples.
The R package quantreg.nonpar implements nonparametric quantile regression methods to estimate and make inference on partially linear quantile models. quantreg.nonpar obtains point estimates of the conditional quantile function and its derivatives ba sed on series approximations to the nonparametric part of the model. It also provides pointwise and uniform confidence intervals over a region of covariate values and/or quantile indices for the same functions using analytical and resampling methods. This paper serves as an introduction to the package and displays basic functionality of the functions contained within.
