This book was released on 2021-09-01 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building around innovative services related to different modes of transport and traffic management, intelligent transport systems (ITS) are being widely adopted worldwide to improve the efficiency and safety of the transportation system. They enable users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and smarter decisions on the use of transport networks. Current ITSs are complex systems, made up of several components/sub-systems characterized by time-dependent interactions among themselves. Some examples of these transportation-related complex systems include: road traffic sensors, autonomous/automated cars, smart cities, smart sensors, virtual sensors, traffic control systems, smart roads, logistics systems, smart mobility systems, and many others that are emerging from niche areas. The efficient operation of these complex systems requires: i) efficient solutions to the issues of sensors/actuators used to capture and control the physical parameters of these systems, as well as the quality of data collected from these systems; ii) tackling complexities using simulations and analytical modelling techniques; and iii) applying optimization techniques to improve the performance of these systems.

This book was released on 2022-12-31 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Machine Learning under Resource Constraints addresses novel machine learning algorithms that are challenged by high-throughput data, by high dimensions, or by complex structures of the data in three volumes. Resource constraints are given by the relation between the demands for processing the data and the capacity of the computing machinery. The resources are runtime, memory, communication, and energy. Hence, modern computer architectures play a significant role. Novel machine learning algorithms are optimized with regard to minimal resource consumption. Moreover, learned predictions are executed on diverse architectures to save resources. It provides a comprehensive overview of the novel approaches to machine learning research that consider resource constraints, as well as the application of the described methods in various domains of science and engineering. Volume 3 describes how the resource-aware machine learning methods and techniques are used to successfully solve real-world problems. The book provides numerous specific application examples. In the areas of health and medicine, it is demonstrated how machine learning can improve risk modelling, diagnosis, and treatment selection for diseases. Machine learning supported quality control during the manufacturing process in a factory allows to reduce material and energy cost and save testing times is shown by the diverse real-time applications in electronics and steel production as well as milling. Additional application examples show, how machine-learning can make traffic, logistics and smart cities more effi cient and sustainable. Finally, mobile communications can benefi t substantially from machine learning, for example by uncovering hidden characteristics of the wireless channel.

This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents the foundations, the initial state, and the progress made in modelling and implementing a real-world and real-time online microscopic traffic simulation system for highway traffic. To successfully model and implement such a simulation system, this thesis recommends the use of a number of formal methods applied at the right places. As part of the recommendation, this thesis proposes a microscopic traffic simulation system. To explore the feasibility and the potential of the recommended methods, it observes and examines the proposed system from multiple views and under various different aspects. As part of the examination, this thesis provides a (semi-)formal specification, a model implementation, an implementation of a productive system, and the benefits that result from validating such a system. The results and any proper application of them have the potential to increase the reliability and the trustworthiness for any future implementation of the proposed simulation system. The presented results additionally motivate to apply the proposed approach to similar simulation systems. The thesis concludes the presentation of the results with some considerations for future implementations.

Download or read book State of the Art Evaluation of Traffic Detection and Monitoring Systems written by Dan Middleton and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report covers the Phase A and B activities of Research Project SPR 627 for the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). Phase C is planned as a separate research activity and is anticipated to begin in the near term, following the completion of Phases A and B. The need for a better valuation program for new traffic detection systems came in part from a lack of confidence in existing detectors, as well as the need for non-intrusive detectors to replace failing embedded inductive loops. The primary objectives of this research were to identify the most promising vehicle detection technologies to meet ADOT needs, to identify candidate test sites, to develop a field test evaluation plan, and to develop and deliver a detailed design of the detection testbed on the selected segment of freeway. The Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) met these objectives through an Internet and literature search, a state-of-the-practice review, a search of relevant new detector systems, and through meetings with the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). Relying on TAC input, TTI developed first a conceptual design, followed by a detailed design and budget for a proposed test facility located on I-10 in Phoenix just west of the 16th Street interchange. Detectors selected for test in the initial period of 12-plus months during Phase C (and the technology used) are as follows: Wavetronix SS-125 (microwave radar), Sensys Networks (magnetic), Global Traffic Technologies microloops (magnetic) and Autoscope Solo Pro (video imaging). The baseline system selected for providing ground truth data is the Peek ADR-6000 using inductive signatures as its basis of detection. It is anticipated that this Phase C testing will include two summer seasons to expose selected detectors to the extreme heat and related environmental conditions found in the Phoenix. The initial cost of the testbed will include detectors sufficient to ultimately cover eight lanes in the westbound direction (currently seven lanes) and six lanes in the eastbound direction. Besides the detectors, the total cost estimate includes a 12 ft by 12 ft node building, three equipment cabinets, inductive loops for the baseline system, conduit, and boring. The total cost of the facility is estimated to be approximately $566,000.
