Download or read book Predicting Short Term Traffic Congestion on Urban Motorway Networks written by Taiwo Olubunmi Adetiloye and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic congestion is a widely occurring phenomenon caused by increased use of vehicles on roads resulting in slower speeds, longer delays, and increased vehicular queueing in traffic. Every year, over a thousand hours are spent in traffic congestion leading to great cost and time losses. In this thesis, we propose a multimodal data fusion framework for predicting traffic congestion on urban motorway networks. It comprises of three main approaches. The first approach predicts traffic congestion on urban motorway networks using data mining techniques. Two categories of models are considered namely neural networks, and random forest classifiers. The neural network models include the back propagation neural network and deep belief network. The second approach predicts traffic congestion using social media data. Twitter traffic delay tweets are analyzed using sentiment analysis and cluster classification for traffic flow prediction. Lastly, we propose a data fusion framework as the third approach. It comprises of two main techniques. The homogeneous data fusion technique fuses data of same types (quantitative or numeric) estimated using machine learning algorithms. The heterogeneous data fusion technique fuses the quantitative data obtained from the homogeneous data fusion model and the qualitative or categorical data (i.e. traffic tweet information) from twitter data source using Mamdani fuzzy rule inferencing systems. The proposed work has strong practical applicability and can be used by traffic planners and decision makers in traffic congestion monitoring, prediction and route generation under disruption.

Download or read book Highway Traffic Forecasting By Support Vector Regression Model With Tabu Search Algorithms written by Wei-Chiang Hong and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate forecasting of inter-urban traffic flow has been one of most important issues globally in the research on road traffic congestion. The information of inter-urban traffic with a cyclic data pattern presents a more challenging situation. This investigation presents a short-term traffic forecasting model which combines the support vector regression model with Tabu search algorithms (SVRTA) to forecast inter-urban traffic flow. The Tabu search algorithms (TA) are used to determine the three parame-ters of support vector regression (SVR) models. Additionally, a numerical ex-ample of traffic flow values from northern Taiwan is used to elucidate the fore-casting performance of the proposed SVRACO model. The simulation results indicate that the proposed model yields more accurate forecasting results than the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) time-series model. Therefore, the SVRTA model is able to capture the cyclic data pattern and therefore a promising alternative in forecasting urban traffic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate forecasting of inter-urban traffic flow has been one of most important issues in the research on road traffic congestion. The traffic flow forecasting involves a rather complex nonlinear data pattern. Recently, support vector regression (SVR) model has been widely used to solve nonlinear regression and time series problems. This investigation presents a short-term traffic forecasting model which combines SVR model with continuous ant colony optimization (SVRCACO), to forecast inter-urban traffic flow. A numerical example of traffic flow values from northern Taiwan is employed to elucidate the forecasting performance of the proposed model. The simulation results indicate that the proposed model yields more accurate forecasting results than the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) time-series model.

Download or read book Urban Area Traffic Flow Forecasting in Intelligent Transportation Systems written by Ziyue Wang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), is revolutionizing the transportation industry. ITS incorporates advanced Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to implement "Smart City". These technologies produce tremendous amount of real time data from diverse sources that can be used to solve transportation problems. In this thesis, I focus on one such problem, traffic congestion in urban areas. A road segment affected by traffic affects the surrounding road segments. This is obvious. However, over a period of time, other roads not necessarily close in proximity to the congested road segment may also be affected. The congestion is not stationary. It is dynamic and it spreads. I address this issue by first formulating a similarity function using ideas from network theory. Using this similarity function, I then cluster the road points affected by traffic using affinity propagation clustering, a distributed message passing algorithm. Finally, I predict the effect of traffic on this cluster using long-short term memory neural network model. I evaluate and show the feasibility of my proposed clustering and prediction algorithm during peak and non-peak hours on open source traffic data set.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problems of urban traffic in the industrially developed countries have been at the top of the priority list for a long time. While making a critical contribution to the economic well being of those countries, transportation systems in general and highway traffic in particular, also have detrimental effects which are evident in excessive congestion, high rates of accidents and severe pollution problems. Scientists from different disciplines have played an important role in the development and refinement of the tools needed for the planning, analysis, and control of urban traffic networks. In the past several years, there were particularly rapid advances in two areas that affect urban traffic: 1. Modeling of traffic flows in urban networks and the prediction of the resulting equilibrium conditions; 2. Technology for communication with the driver and the ability to guide him, by providing him with useful, relevant and updated information, to his desired destination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The economy of a country or region relies vigorously on an efficient and dependable transportation system to provide accessibility and promote the safe and efficient movement of individuals and merchandise. In fact, the transportation framework has been identified by (Nicholson and Du 1997) as the most significant lifesaver in case of natural disasters, for example, earth shudders, floods, hurricanes, and others. Rebuilding of different life savers (for example water supply, electrical power system, sewer system, communication, and numerous others) depends emphatically on the capacity to ship individuals and equipment to harmed destinations. The real travel requests and street limit do differ over time, in this manner, adding to the vulnerability of travel times. With the expanded estimation of time, great loss is incurred by the drivers because of the unexpected schedule (either early or late) delay. A stable transportation system would give a serious edge in the worldwide economy. Therefore, the significance of the reliability of a transportation system cannot be overemphasized. Anticipating the traffic stream is an unpredictable procedure that is influenced by a few parameters, for example, traffic designs, information accumulation, applied zones, and so forth the rightness of traffic stream expectation can acquire preferred position to the smart traffic the executives, it can help in improving rush hour gridlock productivity and diminishing traffic blockage. Fundamentally, stream forecast targets is assessed the absolute number of vehicles given a particular district and a period interim. According to Boris S. [6] and Wei Shenet al. [69], the real-time speed of traffic flow is available to everyone thorough GPS. The traffic data providers use machine learning to predict speed for each road segment. Forecasting the real-time traffic knowledge is really helpful for traveler, it gives the potential of choosing better routes and helps in managing the transportation system.
