Comparison Analysis of Tree Based and Ensembled Regression Algorithms for Traffic Accident Severity Prediction

Rapid increase of traffic volume on urban roads over time has changed the traffic scenario globally. It has also increased the ratio of road accidents that can be severe and fatal in the worst case. To improve traffic safety and its management on urban roads, there is a need for prediction of severity level of accidents. Various machine learning models are being used for accident prediction. In this study, tree based ensemble models (Random Forest, AdaBoost, Extra Tree, and Gradient Boosting) and ensemble of two statistical models (Logistic Regression Stochastic Gradient Descent) as voting classifiers are compared for prediction of road accident severity. Significant features that are strongly correlated with the accident severity are identified by Random Forest. Analysis proved Random Forest as the best performing model with highest classification results with 0.974 accuracy, 0.954 precision, 0.930 recall and 0.942 F-score using 20 most significant features as compared to other techniques classification of road accidents severity.

Shrinking-shifting and Amplifying-shifting Device Using Transformation Optics

Based on transformation optics (TO), this paper uses geometric divisions and linear coordinate transformations to design shrinking-shifting - and reshaping, and amplifying-shifting - and reshaping devices. The proposed devices can reshape the sizes and locations of the wrapped-objects inside the core-region. The shrinking-shifting device shrinks the larger object into a smaller one and shifts it to different location, whereas the shrinking-reshaping device can generate a smaller-size image with different shape located at different location. In contrast to previously designed shrinking devices, the real object wrapped inside the proposed core-region and the transformed object contains the same material properties, and the location-shifting is another feature. Here, the shifting-region is located inside the physical-space boundaries to achieve the non-negative, homogeneous, and anisotropic material properties of the proposed device, which are easier for real implementations. Thus, we further verified this concept with the amplifying-shifting and -reshaping devices for visually transformation of smaller object into bigger one placed at different location and position. We also applied active scatterer to further validate the working functionality of proposed devices. In addition, the proposed devices behave like the concentrator and or rotator effect in the absence of any scatterer. Our findings highlight the role of TO, suggesting directions for future research on bi-functional devices that will be useful for shrinking and amplifying devices, illusion optics, camouflage, and object protection etc. Keywords: amplifying, reshaping, shrinking, transformation optics, invisibility cloaks

Fully-control of OAM vortex beam and realization of retro and negative reflection at oblique incidence using dual-band 2-bit coding metasurface

This paper addresses a reflection-type dual-band 2-bit coding metasurface (CM) design to achieve the dual-band functionalities in two different operating bands, independently. We are particularly interested to control linearly-polarized incident waves by encoding the propagation / dynamic phase in order to realize and fully control the orbital angular momentum (OAM) vortex beam (VB) for dual-band, independently. In this regard, we perform digital addition operations to combine the coding sequences of traditional OAM and phase-gradient to construct the proposed CM. The proposed CM generates and steers the OAM-VB with different topological charges in both lower and higher bands, independently. Similarly, the proposed CM is further extended for OAM-VB shaping by combining the coding sequences of traditional OAM and splitting phase unit-cells, and, we discuss two different scenarios. Firstly, OAM-VB splitting is performed to achieve different topological charges in both lower and higher bands, independently. Secondly, quad-beam shaping is realized to verify the proposed concept of this paper. Finally yet importantly, we also examine that the reflected beam directions can be further independently controlled to achieve anomalous, negative and retro-reflection at two different operating bands. The proposed concept will open up possibilities of multi-functional meta-devices and will be useful in many applications such as optical spanners, quantum optics, spatial mode multiplexing for telecommunications, and astronomy etc.

A novel EM concentrator with open-concentrator region based on multi-folded transformation optics

Conventional concentrators with inhomogeneous coating materials that fully enclose the destined region pose great challenges for fabrication. In this paper, we propose to design an EM concentrator with homogeneous materials. Distinguished from conventional ones, the elaborately designed EM concentrator features a concentrator region that is open to the outer-world, which is achieved with multi-folded transformation optics method by compressing and folding the coating materials to create window(s). Based on this concept, we also investigate open-rotator and open rotational-concentrator devices, which could simultaneously rotate and store the EM waves in the central destined region. Due to the open nature of our proposed designs, we believe they will find potential applications in remote controlling with impressive new functionalities.

Automatic streetlights that glow on detecting night and object using Arduino

Our manuscript aims to develop a system which will lead to energy conservation and by doing so, we would be able to lighten few more homes. The proposed work is accomplished by using Arduino microcontroller and sensors that will control the electricity based on night and object's detection. Meanwhile, a counter is set that will count the number of objects passed through the road. The beauty of the proposed work is that the wastage of unused electricity can be reduced, lifetime of the streetlights gets enhance because the lights do not stay ON during the whole night, and helps to increase safety measurements. We are confident that the proposed idea will be beneficial in the future applications of microcontrollers and sensors etc.

Concealing arbitrary objects remotely with multi-folded transformation optics

An invisibility cloak that can hide an arbitrary object external to the cloak itself has not been devised before. In this Letter, we introduce a novel way to design a remote cloaking device that makes any object located at a certain distance invisible. This is accomplished using multi-folded transformation optics to remotely generate a hidden region around the object that no field can penetrate and that does not disturb the far-field scattering electromagnetic field. As a result, any object in the hidden region can stay in position or move freely within that region and remain invisible. Our idea is further extended in order to design a remote illusion optics that can transform any arbitrary object into another one. Unlike other cloaking methods, this method would require no knowledge of the details of the object itself. The proposed multi-folded transformation optics will be crucial in the design of remote devices in a variety of contexts.
