Roundabouts, as an unsignalized intersection, have an effective preventative measure designed to control straight-line crashes. Efficient traffic flow in cities depends upon appropriate capacity estimation of roundabouts. This study attempts to develop models for roundabout entry capacity by applying Artificial Neural Network (ANN) analysis for mixed traffic flow conditions. Data was gathered from 27 roundabouts spread across India. The influence area for gap acceptance (INAGA) concept was used as a graphical method to identify critical gap (Tc) of entry flow at roundabouts. This study indicated that the Bayesian Regularisation Neural Network (BRNN) based model has the best R2 and RMSE of 0.97 and 167.8. The connection weight approach and Garson algorithm evaluate the significance of each explanatory variable and identify follow-up time (Tf) as a critical parameter with values of 11.10 and 21.15%, respectively.
