Model Predictive Control with Multi-Region MFDs

This lecture delves into the application of model predictive control with multi-region macroscopic fundamental diagrams (MFDs) in traffic flow modeling. The instructor discusses the impact of heterogeneity on MFDs, the design of perimeter control strategies, and hierarchical control systems. The lecture covers subregion-based models, two-level hierarchical control, and the performance comparison of different controllers in minimizing network delay.
