Modeling Highway Traffic Volumes
The behavior of vehicular traffic is subject to many irregularities and stochastic fluctuations. Thus, our success in solving a variety of traffic management and optimizations tasks, such as accident detection or optimal vehicle routing, depends heavily on our ability to adequately model, reason about and predict such a behavior. The objective of this work is to develop a probabilistic model of...
متن کاملSuperstatistics, escort distributions, and applications
Superpositions of different statistics on different time or spatial scales (in short, superstatistics) can naturally lead to an effective description by nonextensive statistical mechanics. We first discuss the role of escort distributions within the superstatistical framework, and then briefly describe recent physical applications of this concept to turbulent and patttern forming systems.
متن کاملSelf-speed and Headway Measurement in Highway Traffic from Onboard Video Footage
We present a method to automatically collect data about distance and speed of vehicles ahead of a car participating in highway traffic. The method should support the registration of traffic in front of a driving car over long periods of time in order to be able to detect over-persistent congestion (OPC) situations. The method requires no specialized devices; it is based on a simple video stream...
متن کاملDeterminants of following Headway in Congested Traffic
This paper reports on results of a study undertaken in the U.K. aimed at investigating factors affecting the car following process. An understanding of the factors affecting this complex decision making process is essential to a wide range of theoretical issues including driver workload, capacity and the modeling of freeway flow, as well as practical applications such as the design of in-vehicl...
متن کاملOn data acquisition, modeling and simulation of highway traffic
We consider the process of setting up a traffic simulation based on traffic measurements. This process consists of several steps: data acquisition, interfacing, data conditioning, modeling and simulation. We discuss some important aspects that should be taken into account in each step of the process, and we also illustrate the entire process using a real-life traffic example.
