Modeling lane changing and lane choice using naturalistic data from a swarm of drones

The pNEUMA dataset is the result of a unique field experiment using a swarm of ten drones flying over the central district of Athens, Greece. Using this newly available dataset, this paper focuses on two directly related topics: i) lane changing and ii) la ...

Dynamic control strategies for managing pedestrian flows

Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Pedestrians, like drivers, generally dislike congestion. This is true for most pedestrian environments: trains stations, airports, or shopping malls. Furthermore, pedestrian congestion also influences the attractiveness of public transportation networks. T ...

Toward Sustainable Ridesourcing Services: A Simulation Study on the Effects of Congestion, Fleet Size, and Willingness to Share

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Caio Vitor Beojone

Human mobility in large cities is a complex dynamical system with high density of population, many transport modes to compete for limited available space and many operators that try to efficiently manage different parts of this system. New emerging modes o ...

Lane Detection and Lane-Changing Identification with High-Resolution Data from a Swarm of Drones

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Emmanouil Barmpounakis

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

An optimization framework for exclusive bus lane allocation in large networks with dynamic congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Dimitrios Tsitsokas, Anastasios Kouvelas

Road space distribution among multiple modes of transport in urban networks has attracted the interest of several researchers and policy planners. Traditionally, these problems are solved by ignoring operational and dynamic characteristics of multi-modal c ...

Two-layer hierarchical control for large-scale urban traffic networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Anastasios Kouvelas

Many efforts have been carried out to optimize the traffic signal settings in cities. Nevertheless, state-of-the-art and -practice strategies cannot deal efficiently with oversaturated conditions (i.e. queue spillbacks and partial gridlocks), as they are e ...

A link partitioning approach for real-time control of queue spillbacks on congested arterials

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei, Nicolas Marie Daniel Bernadette De Lamberterie

In oversaturated urban traffic conditions when traffic demand exceeds capacity at signalised intersections, queues fail to clear during the allocated green times. Once a queue reaches the upstream intersection in an arterial, a queue spillback occurs that ...

Analysis of Traffic Performance of a Merging Assistant Strategy Using Cooperative Vehicles

Riccardo Scarinci

Emerging in-car communication technologies continually offer new communication capabilities between vehicles and infrastructure that, together with more accurate positioning systems, can be used to improve the use of current infrastructure. The aim of this ...

A Multi-Dimensional Analysis of Hard Shoulder Running Systems

André-Gilles Dumont, Dimitrios Efthymiou, Sofia Samoili

The use of Hard Shoulder Running (HSR) systems is a relatively recent control policy aiming to ameliorate traffic conditions in recurrent congested networks. This ITS strategy attracts researchers and practitioners interest, in an attempt to assess its imp ...

Traffic modeling, estimation and control for large-scale congested urban networks

Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei

Part I of the thesis investigates novel urban traffic state estimation methods utilizing probe vehicle data. Chapter 2 proposes a method to integrate the collective effect of dispersed probe data with traffic kinematic wave theory and data mining technique ...
