Driving is a very challenging task to automatize despite how naturally and efficiently it may come to experienced human drivers. The complexity stems from the need to (i) understand the surrounding context and forecast how it is likely to evolve, (ii) plan ...

In the era of big data, new transportation-related concepts and methodologies need to be proposed for understanding how congestion propagates. pNEUMA, a unique dataset that was acquired during a first-of-its-kind experiment with a swarm of drones over a de ...

Traffic management for large-scale urban road networks remains a challenging problem. Aggregated dynamical models of city-scale traffic, based on the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD), enable development of model-based control schemes for use with the ...

Management of road traffic in urban settings remains a challenging problem. Perimeter control schemes proposed to alleviate congestion in large-scale urban networks usually assume noise-free measurements of the traffic state, which is problematic since mea ...

Collective Memory and Resistance: Visual explorations in the Historic Centre and Films of Mexico City

Lesslie Astrid Herrera Quiroz

Today, institutionalised discourses surrounding heritage have social and physical impacts, with the potential to lead to a break between inhabitants' collective memory of popular neighbourhoods, and their transforming territories. In this context, the acti ...

The evaluation of perimeter control using Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) concept is strongly related with the quality of the corresponding dynamic models. For capturing the real characteristics of traffic dynamics, an enhanced accumulation-based tra ...

Merging efficiently into roundabouts represents a challenge for autonomous vehicles due to the speed difference between merging traffic flows and the lack of certainty regarding drivers' intent, specially when the road is shared with human drivers and/or i ...

High level of detail renders microscopic traffic models impractical for control purposes and local control schemes cannot coordinate actions over the whole city. Thus, development of efficient modeling and control methods for large-scale urban road network ...
