چکیده

Vehicular travel is increasing throughout the world, particularly in large urban areas. Therefore the need arises for simulating and optimizing traffic control algorithms to better accommodate this increasing demand. In this paper we study the simulation and optimization of traffic light controllers in a city and present an adaptive optimization algorithm based on reinforcement learning. We have implemented a traffic light simulator, Green Light District, that allows us to experiment with different infrastructures and to compare different traffic light controllers. Experimental results indicate that our adaptive traffic light controllers outperform other fixed controllers on all studied infrastructures.

Agent controlled traffic lights

Due to several reasons, changing conditions in the environment do not always lead to changes in the traffic control units. The hypothesis of this research is that it may be useful to make use of self evaluating and self organising intelligent (urban) traffic control systems. In this research we focus on the applicability of autonomous intelligent agents within urban traffic control (i.e. traffi...

An Intelligent Traffic Light Control Based on Extension Neural Network

This paper presents an intelligent traffic light control method based on extension neural network (ENN) theory for crossroads. First, the number of passing vehicles and passing time of one vehicle within green light time period are measured in the main-line and sub-line of a selected crossroad. Then, the measured data are adopted to construct an estimation method based on ENN for recognizing th...
