Calibration of microsimulation traffic model using neural network approach
This paper presents the results of research on the applicability of neural networks in the process of computer calibration of a microsimulation traffic model. VISSIM microsimulation model is used for calibration done at the example of roundabouts in an urban area. The calibration method is based on the prediction of a neural network for one traffic indicator, i.e. for the traveling time between...
متن کاملEvaluation and further development of car following models in microscopic traffic simulation
This paper presents findings from a comparative evaluation of car-following behaviour in a number of microscopic traffic simulators. The paper describes the results of the calibration and validation of the car following model implemented in the ARTEMiS simulator developed by the author. The calibration and validation are based on a ‘standard’ car-following experiment (called the Boschtest) whic...
متن کاملApplication of Microscopic Simulation Model Calibration and Validation Procedure: A Case Study of Coordinated Actuated Signal System
In the application of microscopic simulation models, the importance of model calibration and validation cannot be overemphasized. A recent study proposed a systematic approach of conducting simulation model calibration and validation procedure on the basis of experimental design and optimization, and applied it to an isolated intersection using a VISSIM simulation model. This study further eval...
متن کاملAn Analysis of New Service Interchange Designs
An efficient freeway system will be essential to the development of Africa, and interchanges are a key to that efficiency. Around the world, many interchanges between freeways and surface streets, called service interchanges, are of the diamond configuration, and interchanges using roundabouts or loop ramps are also popular. However, many diamond interchanges have serious operational problems, ...
متن کاملA Microsimulation Model of a Congested Freeway using VISSIM
A procedure for constructing and calibrating a detailed model of a freeway using VISSIM is presented and applied to a 15-mile stretch of I-210 West in Pasadena, California. This test site provides several challenges for microscopic modeling: an HOV lane with an intermittent barrier, a heavy freeway connector, 20 metered onramps with and without HOV bypass lanes, and three interacting bottleneck...
