Description:
Traffic systems and signals are used to improve traffic flow, reduce congestion, increase travel time consistency and ensure safety of road users. Malicious interruption or manipulation of traffic signals may cause disastrous instants including huge delays, financial loss and loss of lives. Intrusion into traffic signals by hackers can create such interruption whose consequences will only increase with the introduction of driverless vehicles. Recently, many traffic signals across the world are reported to have intruded, highlighting the importance of accurate detection. To reduce the impact of an intrusion, in this paper, we introduce an intrusion detection technique using the flow rate and phase time of a traffic signal as evidential information to detect the presence of an intrusion. The information received from flow rate and phase time are fused with the Dempster Shaffer (DS) theory. Historical data are used to create the probability mass functions for both flow rate and phase time. We also developed a simulation model using a traffic simulator, namely SUMO for many types of real traffic situations including intrusion. The performance of the proposed Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is appraised with normal traffic condition and induced intrusions. Simulated results show our proposed system can successfully detect intruded traffic signals from normal signals with significantly high accuracy (above 91%).

Description:
Even though half of the population of Bangladesh is women, most of them are not working as paid employee or working as business owner. The main reason is that most of them are in rural area and unable to get proper education. This paper aims to develop a model that can assist different government organizations to assist those unemployed rural women to get involved in fisheries industries. This will help them to get proper information to get some income from whatever resources they have nearby for generate income from aquaculture.

Description:
Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) can manage on-road traffic efficiently based on real-time traffic conditions, reduce delay at the intersections, and maintain the safety of the road users. However, emergency vehicles still struggle to meet their targeted response time, and an ITS is vulnerable to various types of attacks, including cyberattacks. To address these issues, in this dissertation, we introduce three techniques that enhance the service quality and reliability of an ITS. First, an innovative Emergency Vehicle Priority System (EVPS) is presented to assist an Emergency Vehicle (EV) in attending the incident place faster. Our proposed EVPS determines the proper priority codes of EV based on the type of incidents. After priority code generation, EVPS selects the number of traffic signals needed to be turned green considering the impact on other vehicles gathered in the relevant adjacent cells. Second, for improving reliability, an Intrusion Detection System for traffic signals is proposed for the first time, which leverages traffic and signal characteristics such as the flow rate, vehicle speed, and signal phase time. Shannon’s entropy is used to calculate the uncertainty associated with the likelihood of particular evidence and Dempster-Shafer (DS) decision theory is used to fuse the evidential information. Finally, to improve the reliability of a future ITS, we introduce a model that assesses the trust level of four major On-Board Units (OBU) of a self-driving car along with Global Positioning System (GPS) data and safety messages. Both subjective logic (DS theory) and CertainLogic are used to develop the theoretical underpinning for estimating the trust value of a self-driving car by fusing the trust value of four OBU components, GPS data and safety messages. For evaluation and validation purposes, a popular and widely used traffic simulation package, namely Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO), is used to develop the simulation platform using a real map of Melbourne CBD. The relevant historical real data taken from the VicRoads website were used to inject the traffic flow and density in the simulation model. We evaluated the performance of our proposed techniques considering different traffic and signal characteristics such as occupancy rate, flow rate, phase time, and vehicle speed under many realistic scenarios. The simulation result shows the potential efficacy of our proposed techniques for all selected scenarios.
