Learning Cooperative Lane Selection Strategies for Highways

چکیده
This paper presents a novel approach to traffic management by coordinating driver behaviors. Current traffic management systems do not consider lane organization of the cars and only affect traffic flows by controlling traffic signals or ramp meters. However, drivers should be able to increase traffic throughput and more consistently maintain desired speeds by selecting lanes intelhgently. We pose the problem of intelligent lane selection as a challenging and potentially rewarding problem for artificial intelligence, and we propose a methodology that uses supervised and reinforcement learning to form distributed control strategies. Initial results are promising and demonstrate that intelligent lane selection can better approximate desired speeds and reduce the total number of lane changes.

Modeling the Operational Speed of Tangents and Curves in Four-lane Highways Based on Geometric and Roadside Factors
Operational speed is an index that represents drivers’ speeding behaviors and shows the comfort and safety levels they experience. Many models had been proposed to predict operational speed in tangent and curve segments of highways. Most of these works had used geometric, with few of them conducted using roadside variables to predict operational speed. Also, the operational speed study in multi...
متن کاملThe Impact of Fostering Learner Autonomy through Implementing Cooperative Learning Strategies on Inferential Reading Comprehension Ability of Iranian EFL Learners
Abstract The great shift of paradigm from teacher-centeredness to learner-centeredness has one major rationale in line with the definitions of autonomy, i.e., the capacity and willingness to act independently and in cooperation with others, so cooperation is looked upon as the manifestation of autonomy. In the present study, the researchers investigated the impact of training cooperative...

متن کاملDistributed Learning of Lane-selection Strategies for Traac Management Running Head: Distributed Learning for Traac Management Key Words: Reinforcement Learning, Distributed Control, Traac Management, Lane Selection Distributed Learning for Traffic Management
This paper explores a novel approach to traac management that relies on a distributed scheme in which vehicles themselves select lanes. After formulating the problem of distributed traac control, we describe an initial system that uses reinforcement learning to acquire lane selection strategies from experience with a traac simulator. In addition, we report experimental studies of this method wh...
