Retraction: Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Determination of the Effect of Experimental Parameters on Vehicle Agent Speed Relative to Vehicle Intruder

  • The PLOS ONE Editors

Following publication, concerns have been raised regarding overlap of text between this article [1] and other previously published works.

There is overlap in the text between the Methodology, Results and Discussion, and Conclusion sections of this article and a previous publication by one of the same authors which presented a different application of the same methodology [2]; that earlier work is not cited and discussed in the PLOS ONE article.

Additionally, there is some text overlap in the Introduction and Methodology sections with previously published works by other author groups, including [3,4]. These works are cited, but it is not made clear that text has been re-used verbatim from these sources.

In view of the extent of the overlapping text, the PLOS ONE Editors retract this article.

LB-M, IB, SK did not agree with retraction. AWBAW did not respond. SS did not comment on the retraction decision.
