Traffic Prediction Based on a Local Exchange of Information

Guillaume Adrien Sartoretti, Bastien Chopard

We propose a decentralized method for traffic monitoring, fully distributed over the vehicles. An algorithm is provided, specifying which information should be tracked to reconstruct an instantaneous map of traffic flow. We test the accuracy of our method ...

Estimating MFDs in simple networks with route choice

Nikolaos Geroliminis

The concept of the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) is elegant and attractive because it provides a global view of traffic behavior and performance at a network level. However, recent research shows that the MFD shape can be influenced by local traffi ...

Cooperative traffic control of a mixed network with two urban regions and a freeway

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei, Jack Haddad

Currently most optimization methods for urban transport networks (i) are suited for networks with simplified dynamics that are far from real-sized networks or (ii) apply decentralized control, which is not appropriate for heterogeneously loaded networks or ...

Demand-oriented traffic management for incidents and disasters.

Traffic simulation has been extensively used as a decision support tool for efficient traffic management in daily life. During disasters and incidents, traffic simulation can further help rescue teams to understand the current traffic state and the possibl ...

An Empirical Analysis on the Arterial Fundamental Diagram

Nikolaos Geroliminis

For uninterrupted traffic flow, it is well-known that the fundamental diagram (FD) describes the relationship between traffic flow and density under steady state. For interrupted traffic flow on a signalized road, it has been recognized that the arterial f ...

Real-time Traffic Prediction Under Exogenous Factors

Sofia Samoili

Traffic congestion is an escalating phenomenon with multidimensional impact. The proposed research stands in the hypothesis that a traffic forecasting method, acknowledging several exogenous parameters for a more plausible representation of traffic evoluti ...

A rolling-horizon quadratic-programming approach to the signal control problem in large-scale congested urban road networks

Anastasios Kouvelas

The paper investigates the efficiency of a recently developed signal control methodology, which offers a computationally feasible technique for real-time network-wide signal control in large-scale urban traffic networks and is applicable also under congest ...

The importance of being early

Nikolaos Geroliminis

This research quantifies the relationship between the cost of earliness and lateness by empirically observing commute trips from two different sources. The first empirical analysis uses individual level travel survey data from six metropolitan regions whil ...

The spatial variability of vehicle densities as determinant of urban network capacity

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Seyyed Amin Mazloumian

Due to the complexity of the traffic flow dynamics in urban road networks, most quantitative descriptions of city traffic so far have been based on computer simulations. This contribution pursues a macroscopic (fluid-dynamic) simulation approach, which fac ...
