Traffic Games: Modeling Freeway Traffic with Game Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
We apply game theory to a vehicular traffic model to study the effect of driver strategies on traffic flow. The resulting model inherits the realistic dynamics achieved by a two-lane traffic model and aims to incorporate phenomena caused by driver-driver interactions. To achieve this goal, a game-theoretic description of driver interaction was developed. This game-theoretic formalization allows one to model different lane-changing behaviors and to keep track of mobility performance. We simulate the evolution of cooperation, traffic flow, and mobility performance for different modeled behaviors. The analysis of these results indicates a mobility optimization process achieved by drivers' interactions.

Traffic Condition Detection in Freeway by using Autocorrelation of Density and Flow
Traffic conditions vary over time, and therefore, traffic behavior should be modeled as a stochastic process. In this study, a probabilistic approach utilizing Autocorrelation is proposed to model the stochastic variation of traffic conditions, and subsequently, predict the traffic conditions. Using autocorrelation of the time series samples of density and flow which are collected from segments...
متن کاملModeling of Freeway Traffic
An integrated modeling of freeway traffic is developed, whose implementation in an uniform computer–aided simulation model facilitate comparative evaluation and systematic coupling of several traffic simulations, traffic controls, traffic measurements and traffic scenarios. The integrated modeling of freeway traffic is a basic mapping of freeway networks, control methods, measurements and diffe...

Traffic conflicts between merging and through vehicles are typical phenomena near freeway on-ramp sections, yet few microscopic models describing the interaction of these vehicles in the merging process have been proposed. In this paper, vehicle interactions during merging process are modeled under an enhanced game-theoretic framework. Freeway on-coming through vehicle and on-ramp merging vehic...
متن کاملSynopsis of Traffic Simulation Models
Computer simulation modeling is an established tool for assessing traffic operations. Over the past three decades, a variety of traffic simulation models have been developed, and many experiments and applications of these traffic simulation models to imaginary and real traffic operations have been conducted. This paper is intended to review widely used and newly developed models, in terms of mo...
متن کاملDynamic system of strategic games
Maybe an event can't be modeled completely through one game but there is more chance with several games. With emphasis on players' rationality, we present new properties of strategic games, which result in production of other games. Here, a new attitude to modeling will be presented in game theory as dynamic system of strategic games and its some applications such as analysis of the clash betwe...
