Notation and parameters.

Probability of pedestrian/vehicle choosing to cross () or not; ()
Utility function of pedestrian/vehicle
Principal component m/n affecting pedestrian’s/vehicle’s decision-making, ,
Weight coefficients of pedestrian’s utility function
Weight coefficients of vehicle’s utility function
Probability of pedestrian/vehicle choosing to cross in secondary interaction stage
Vehicle/pedestrian yielding rate of 3 different pedestrian-vehicle interaction situations,
Cycle length, (s)
Effective green time, (s)
Saturation degree
The duration of observation, (h)
The incremental delay correction of induction control, which can be obtained from the table
The incremental delay correction of vehicle’s lane change according to upstream signal, I = 1 at independent intersection
The times of pedestrian-vehicle interaction before setting EPP during the observation time, which can be obtained by modeling (obtained by linear regression in the verification case of this paper).
