“…According to Leilei et al [36], PSE participants typically come a short time before the start. However, from the sample it was observed that, the overall fans arrive at the vicinity of the stadium on average 188 minutes before the game begins, despite the fact that these games are held every two weeks.…”

Planned Special Event (PSE) is a public activity that has a defined location and time and has an influence on transportation system operations as a consequence of increases in travel demand or decreases in road capacity. Apart from the event itself, PSEs might generate additional activities based on location, time and duration of the event, and individual preferences. This paper focuses on the interim activities of soccer spectators in Istanbul. This paper is motivated by the mostly disregarded but significantly important demand for these activities by jointly analyzing the arrival time and location preferences for the interim activities carried out before the main activity. For this aim, a joint logit model capturing the factors influencing the arrival time and location choice collectively within the PSE circumstances is estimated. In this estimation, each trip and behavior of spectator groups are modeled separately. According to the results of the models, one significant and interesting finding is the behavioral differences of supporters of different teams which is mostly influenced by the activity opportunities present in the surrounding of the venues. Last motorized trips of the Besiktas and Fenerbahce's spectators end at the sub-centers in general, while the spectators of the Galatasaray prefer the stadium as their final destination. Moreover, league matches being on weekdays or weekends does not have a statistically significant effect on the choice of arrival time and location of the spectators. The findings provide useful information that might assist event organizers and decision-makers especially in planning special events.

“…For example, Makantasis and colleagues [12] developed an accurate and automated manufactured object detection approach using a CNN to encode spectral information and an MLP for the classification task. Jin and colleagues [13] proposed a method for ATR using a forward-looking sonar based on Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs). Girshick and colleagues [14] developed a new approach that combines region proposals with CNNs.…”

The more human gets interested in sea exploration, the more research to detect objects under the water is done. Therefore, the ability to detect, classify, recognize and track all kinds of objects is evolving daily. This paper aims to introduce a computer model for underwater object classification and recognition based on a Multilayer Perceptron network. The model was constructed with a mixed dataset for the training phase, combining artificial and natural objects, and it reached approximately 99.97% classifying accuracy.

“…Similarly, the concert of Robbie Williams in London in 2003 caused up to 10 mile long tailbacks on the highway A1 towards the stadium (Kwoczek et al, 2014). An interesting aspect is that the traffic due to PSEs demonstrates a quite typical behavior, having two subsequent waves of congestion (Leilei et al, 2012). The first wave is caused by the flow of people going to the event, while the second waveby the people leaving the place of event.…”

Planned special events (PSEs) attract more people than usual to specific areas, which leads to increased traffic flows and congestions on the roads. Roadwork zones are among the most vulnerable areas on the roads, where increased traffic can lead to congestion. In roadwork zones, the vehicle flow capacity is already lower than in the conventional situations without roadworks, but at the time of PSEs, these zones become difficult to pass if no attention is paid to the change of the traffic management scheme. This kind of events poses many threats for road authorities, thus, new traffic management systems should be considered. This paper analyzes 2 PSEs and one national celebration in Lithuania and a significant impact they have on the regular traffic flow. PSEs are taken into consideration as they attract traffic to a known place; however, national celebrations distort traffic along all roads and it is not known exactly, which roads will be congested the most. Since roadwork zones cause congestion problems even in conventional situations, this paper presents traffic capacity calculations at these road stretches during PSEs and considers how they change depending on the traffic management scheme.
