Applying Semantic Web Technologies for Diagnosing Road Traffic Congestions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diagnosis, or the method to connect causes to its effects, is an important reasoning task for obtaining insight on cities and reaching the concept of sustainable and smarter cities that is envisioned nowadays. This paper, focusing on transportation and its road traffic, presents how road traffic congestions can be detected and diagnosed in quasi real-time. We adapt pure Artificial Intelligence diagnosis techniques to fully exploit knowledge which is captured through relevant semantics-augmented stream and static data from various domains. Our prototype of semantic-aware diagnosis of road traffic congestions, experimented in Dublin Ireland, works efficiently with large, heterogeneous information sources and delivers value-added services to citizens and city managers in quasi real-time.

A Prototype for Semantic based Diagnosis of Road Traffic Congestions
Retrieving the causes of road traffic congestions in quasi real-time is an important task that will enable city managers to get better insight into traffic issues and thus take appropriate corrective actions in a timely way. Our work, accepted at ISWC 2012, tackles this problem by integrating and reasoning over a variety of heterogeneous data sources including data streams. In this paper we pre...
متن کاملPredicting Severity of Road Traffic Congestion Using Semantic Web Technologies
Predictive reasoning, or the problem of estimating future observations given some historical information, is an important inference task for obtaining insight on cities and supporting efficient urban planning. This paper, focusing on transportation, presents how severity of road traffic congestion can be predicted using semantic Web technologies. In particular we present a system which integrat...
متن کاملSmart traffic analytics in the semantic web with STAR-CITY: Scenarios, system and lessons learned in Dublin City
This paper gives a high-level presentation of STAR-CITY, a system supporting semantic traffic analytics and reasoning for city. STAR-CITY, which integrates (human and machine-based) sensor data using variety of formats, velocities and volumes, has been designed to provide insight on historical and real-time traffic conditions, all supporting efficient urban planning. Our system demonstrates how...
متن کاملA Vissim Based Framework for Simulation of Cooperative Ramp Metering
Due to the increase of vehicle numbers in recent decades, there exists a significant problem of reoccurring road traffic congestion. Such congestions are a characteristic of densely populated urban areas. They occur daily during the morning and afternoon rush hours. The road traffic congestion problem can be solved by applying new traffic control approaches from the domain of intelligent transp...
متن کاملAHP Techniques for Trust Evaluation in Semantic Web
The increasing reliance on information gathered from the web and other internet technologies raise the issue of trust. Through the development of semantic Web, One major difficulty is that, by its very nature, the semantic web is a large, uncensored system to which anyone may contribute. This raises the question of how much credence to give each resource. Each user knows the trustworthiness of ...
