Framework for real-time traffic forecasting methodology under exogenous parameters

André-Gilles Dumont, Sofia Samoili

Ensuing from the deteriorating conditions of road networks, traffic forecasting techniques with mathematical and computer-theory methods have been employed to address the real-time prediction of traffic conditions and their dynamic control, with the optimu ...

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 ...

Decentralized method for traffic monitoring

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 ...

A new approach for co-operative bus priority at traffic signals

Bus priority at traffic signals is a growing area of co-operative transport system applications. Interest in bus priority continues to grow as the Cities pay more attention to the needs of buses to provide fast, frequent and reliable services thus contribu ...

Analyzing fluctuations in car-following

Many car-following models predict a stable car-following behavior with a very small fluctuation around an equilibrium value g∗ of the net headway g with zero speed-difference Δv between the following and the lead vehicle. However, it is well-known and addi ...

A Dynamic Cordon Pricing Scheme combining a Macroscopic and an Agent-based traffic Models

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Nan Zheng

Pricing is considered an effective management policy to reduce traffic congestion in transportation networks. In this paper we combine a macroscopic model of traffic congestion in urban networks with an agent-based simulator to study congestion pricing sch ...

Exploiting the fundamental diagram of urban networks for feedback-based gating

Anastasios Kouvelas, Mehdi Keyvan Ekbatani

Traffic signal control for urban road networks has been an area of intensive research efforts for several decades, and various algorithms and tools have been developed and implemented to increase the network traffic flow efficiency. Despite the continuous ...

Considering weather in simulating traffic

André-Gilles Dumont, Ashish Bhaskar, Minh Hai Pham, Sofia Samoili

The impact of weather on traffic and its behavior is not well studied in literature primarily due to lack of integrated traffic and weather data. Weather can significant effect the traffic and traffic management measures developed for fine weather might no ...

Real-Time Identification of Risk-Prone Traffic Patterns Taking into Account Weather Conditions

André-Gilles Dumont, Minh Hai Pham

This paper presents the concept of a methodology for identifying in real time risky motorway traffic conditions. This research effort is to automate the extraction of traffic patterns from large data archives using advanced computing techniques. These patt ...

Traffic Effects of the Emergency Lane Use

Sofia Samoili

The use of the hard shoulder/emergency lane (EL) is analysed in the current research, with case study the first experimental application of emergency lane use undertaken in Switzerland (Morges - Écublens). The EL is activated during peak hours and when con ...
