A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. (2005)
Conference Proceeding
Kerridge, J., Kukla, R., Willis, A., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., & Lei, L. (2005). A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. In S. P. Hoogendoom, S. Luding, P. H. L. Bovy, M. Schreckenberg, & D. E. Wolf (Eds.), Traffic and granular flow 03 (383-392). https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-28091-X_37

We provide a comparison of the relative merits of video and infrared based methods for collecting pedestrian movements from the real world and also from experimental environments. We describe the underlying technological basis of both methods and the... Read More about A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements..

Monitoring the movement of pedestrians using low-cost infrared detectors: initial findings. (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Kerridge, J., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., Lei, L., & Sumpter, N. (2004). Monitoring the movement of pedestrians using low-cost infrared detectors: initial findings.

Monitoring the movement of pedestrians in everyday environments is difficult, especially if accurate data are required. Typically, data pertaining to the origins and destinations of pedestrians as they move around a space can be obtained only by eith...

Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. (2004)
Journal Article
Willis, A., Gjersoe, N., Havard, C., Kerridge, J., & Kukla, R. (2004). Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. Environment and planning. B, Planning & design, 31(6), 805-828. https://doi.org/10.1068/b3060

Despite a burgeoning research effort directed at the design and modelling of effective urban spaces for pedestrians, remarkably little is known about how pedestrians actually negotiate urban spaces. This paper reports the results of a video-based obs... Read More about Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments..

Measuring pedestrian trajectories with low cost infrared detectors: Preliminary results. (2003)
Conference Proceeding
Armitage, A., Binnie, D., Kerridge, J., & Lei, L. (2003). Measuring pedestrian trajectories with low cost infrared detectors: Preliminary results. In E. R. Galea (Ed.), Pedestrian and Evacuation Dynamics: 2nd International Conference held at the Old Naval College, University of Greenwich, London, 20-22 August 2003 (101-110)

The accurate measurement of pedestrian trajectories has been difficult to achieve in environments other than carefully controlled laboratories. Traditional techniques include direct observation, and analysis of recorded video footage. The Transport R...

Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. (2001)
Journal Article
Kerridge, J., Hine, J., & Wigan, M. (2001). Agent-based modelling of pedestrian movements: the questions that need to be asked and answered. Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 28(3), 327-341. https://doi.org/10.1068/b2696

Vulnerable road users have steadily attracted increased importance in transport and planning. The behaviour of pedestrian movements (especially in the areas off but adjacent to roads) requires improved tools to address the issues now being raised. Su...

PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow. (2001)
Journal Article
Kukla, R., Kerridge, J., Willis, A., & Hine, J. (2001). PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow. Transportation research record, 1774, 11-17. https://doi.org/10.3141/1774-02

The paper discusses the need for an autonomous agent approach for the modeling of pedestrians in urban environments and places PEDFLOW in the context of existing models. PEDFLOW is a microscopic model of pedestrians’ movement, where each pedestrian... Read More about PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow..
