Incident Detection with Traffic sensors on urban highways
by ryan fries, ph.d., p.e., mashrur a. chowdhury, ph.d., p.e., yongchang ma, ph.d., and anne e. dunning, ph.d. inTroducTion Traffic congestion is an increasingly significant problem on America’s highways, wasting time and fuel while increasing emissions.1 Most American roadways (approximately 60 percent) are already congested, and drivers spend more time traveling than ever before.2 Reducing co...
متن کاملTowards a Learning Traffic Incident Detection System
The state of the art in traffic incident detection is dominated by approaches that require significant manual tuning. Our hypothesis is that these time-consuming solutions can be sucessfuly eliminated with the help of machine learning methods and past traffic data collected nowadays on major highways. We show that combining the output of a set of simple, imperfectly tuned, “offthe-shelf” detect...
متن کاملTraffic Incident Detection Using Probabilistic Topic Model
Tra c congestion is quite common in urban settings, and is not always caused by tra c incidents. In this paper, we propose a simple method for detecting tra c incidents by using probe-car data to compare usual and current tra c states, thereby distinguishing incidents from spontaneous congestion. First, we introduce a tra c state model based on a probabilistic topic model to describe tra c stat...
متن کاملDatabase-Centered Architecture for Traffic Incident Detection, Management, and Analysis
Reliable and efficient means for traffic incident detection and management are very important contributors to make the traffic flow smoother and safer. This paper presents various issues related to the development of an integrated software architecture for a traffic incident monitoring, mitigation, and analysis system. The novel concept of using a set of distributed databases, having many diffe...
متن کاملLocating Traffic Sensors on a Highway Network: Models and Algorithms
44 We consider the problem of finding optimal sensor locations on a traffic network so as to characterize 45 system use overall. We study the problem under two practical scenarios. In the first scenario, we assume 46 there is a given number of sensors (p) that we need to locate on the highway network. In this context, the 47 problem is to find a collection of p locations among a given collectio...
