Road trafficking description and short term travel time forecasting, with a classification method
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this work is, on the one hand, to study how to forecast road trafficking on highway networks and, on the other hand, to describe future traffic events. Here, road trafficking is measured by the vehicle velocities. The authors propose two methodologies. The first is based on an empirical classification method, and the second on a probability mixture model. They use an SAEM type algorithm (a stochastic approximation of the EM algorithm) to select the densities of the mixture model. Then, they test the validity of our methodologies by forecasting short term travel times. Description de trafic routier et prévision de temps de parcours à court terme au moyen d’une méthode de classification Résumé : Les objectifs de l’étude exposée ici sont, d’une part, la mise en place d’une méthode de prévision de temps de parcours sur le réseau routier de l’agglomération parisienne, et d’autre part, la description des comportements futurs du trafic. Ici, le trafic routier est mesuré par la vitesse des véhicules. Les auteurs proposent deux approches, l’une basée sur une méthode de classification automatique, et la seconde sur un modèle de mélange. Afin d’estimer les paramètres du modèle de mélange, ils utilisent l’algorithme SAEM (une approximation stochastique de l’algorithme EM). Enfin, ils testent et comparent les méthodes proposées en effectuant des prévisions sur un échantillon de test.

متن کاملShort Term Load Forecasting Using Empirical Mode Decomposition, Wavelet Transform and Support Vector Regression
The Short-term forecasting of electric load plays an important role in designing and operation of power systems. Due to the nature of the short-term electric load time series (nonlinear, non-constant, and non-seasonal), accurate prediction of the load is very challenging. In this article, a method for short-term daily and hourly load forecasting is proposed. In this method, in the first step, t...

Good characterization of traffic interactions among urban roads can facilitate traffic-related applications, such as traffic control and short-term forecasting. Most studies measure the traffic interaction between two roads by their topological distance or the correlation between their traffic variables. However, the distance-based methods neglect the spatial heterogeneity of roads’ traffic int...
