Book Synopsis Swarm-intelligence Based Adaptive Signal System by : Jonathan Corey
Download or read book Swarm-intelligence Based Adaptive Signal System written by Jonathan Corey and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over 300,000 traffic signals in the United States, it is important to everyone that those traffic signals operate optimally. Unfortunately, according to the Institute of Transportation Engineers over 75% of traffic signal control systems are in need of retiming or upgrade. Agencies and practitioners responsible for these signals face significant budgeting and procedural challenges to maintain and upgrade their systems. Transportation professionals have traditionally lacked accessible and effective tools to identify when and where the greatest benefits may be generated through retiming and system feature selection. They have also lacked methods and tools to identify, select and defend choices of new traffic signal control systems. This is especially true for adaptive traffic signal control systems which are generally more expensive and whose adaptive algorithms are proprietary, invalidating many traditional analysis methods. To address these challenges, a new theoretical framework including queuing and traffic signal control models has been developed in this study to predict the impacts of signal control technology on a given corridor. This framework has been implemented in the STAR Lab Toolkit for Analysis of Traffic and Intersection Control Systems (STATICS) that uses an underlying queuing model interacting with simulated traffic signal control logic to develop traffic measures of effectiveness under different traffic signal control strategies and settings. The STATICS toolkit has been employed by the Oregon Department of Transportation and several other transportation agencies to analyze their corridors and select advanced traffic signal control systems. Furthermore, a new cost-effective adaptive traffic signal control system called the Swarm-Intelligence Based Adaptive Signal System (SIBASS) is proposed to address situations where optimum optimization strategies change with traffic conditions. Compared to the existing adaptive signal control systems, SIBASS carries an important advantage that makes it robust under communication difficulties. It operates at the individual intersection level in a flat hierarchy that does not use a central controller. Instead, each intersection self-assigns a role based on current traffic conditions and the current roles of neighboring intersections. Each role uses different optimization goals, allowing SIBASS to change intersection optimization criteria based on the current role chosen by that intersection. By designing cooperative features into SIBASS it is possible to create corridor coordination and optimization. This is accomplished using the characteristics of the swarm rather than external imposition to create order. SIBASS is evaluated via simulation under varied traffic conditions. SIBASS consistently outperformed the existing systems tested in this study. On average, SIBASS reduced system average per vehicle delay by approximately 3.5 seconds and system average queue lengths by 20 feet in the tested scenarios. New approaches to tailoring traffic signal control optimization strategies to current traffic conditions and desired operational goals are enabled by SIBASS. Combined, STATICS and SIBASS offer a solid basis upon which to build future tools and methods to analyze traffic signal control systems. Future STATICS analytical modules may include estimating environmental performance and costs as well as improvements to pedestrian modeling and mobility analysis. Environmental and pedestrian considerations also present opportunities for improvement of SIBASS. New optimization roles can be created for SIBASS to address environmental and pedestrian optimization issues.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary function of traffic signals is to assign the right of way to vehicular and pedestrian traffic at intersections. Effective traffic signal system reduces congestion, increases intersection capacity, and improves other traffic related performance measures such as safety and mobility. To ensure these goals are met, traffic signals require updated timings to maintain proper operation. These updated signal timings impact not only traffic performance, but overall transportation system efficiency. Because traditional signal timing plans may not accommodate variable and unpredictable traffic demands, a more proactive approach is necessary to ensure properly timed and maintained traffic signals. Adaptive traffic control systems (ATCS) continually collect data and optimize signal timing on a real time basis thereby reducing the aforementioned drawbacks of traditional signal retiming. Understanding and characterizing how these systems are working is important to transportation engineers, and evaluating these systems can provide useful insights. The objective of this dissertation is to develop evaluation methodologies (both operational and economical) for adaptive traffic signal control that go beyond the traditional assessments that use traffic measures of effectiveness (MOEs). Case studies are conducted for Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS) implementations in Alabama, which are useful in objective evaluations of ATCS (in general) for both their current and future operational environments by using microsimulation techniques and/or field data from contemporary data sources. The study contains detailed comparative analyses of traffic operations of the study corridors for existing peak hour traffic conditions under the previous time-of-day (TOD) plan and similar peak hour conditions after SCATS implementation. Although simulation analysis using VISSIM traffic microsimulation software is the primary methodological technique used for evaluating comparative performances, arterial data from other sources (Bluetooth MAC Address Matching and crowdsourced travel data) are also used to perform the evaluations, which is a novel application for this context. While past studies have considered either the arterial or its side-streets performances in their evaluations, this work explored a system-wide approach looking at the composite performance of both dimensions together. Finally, for transportation agencies which operate within budget constraints, it is important to know the real worth of attaining the benefits from ATCS implementations. The last chapter of this dissertation extends the evaluation methodology to include benefit-cost analysis (BCA) by evaluating the ATCS performance for both current and future traffic conditions. This information will be helpful for transportation agencies, planners, and practitioners to understand and justify their ATCS investment and also serve as a guideline for their future ITS projects.

Book Synopsis Autonomic Road Transport Support Systems by : Thomas Leo McCluskey
Download or read book Autonomic Road Transport Support Systems written by Thomas Leo McCluskey and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work on Autonomic Road Transport Support (ARTS) presented here aims at meeting the challenge of engineering autonomic behavior in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) by fusing research from the disciplines of traffic engineering and autonomic computing. Ideas and techniques from leading edge artificial intelligence research have been adapted for ITS over the last 30 years. Examples include adaptive control embedded in real time traffic control systems, heuristic algorithms (e.g. in SAT-NAV systems), image processing and computer vision (e.g. in automated surveillance interpretation). Autonomic computing which is inspired from the biological example of the body’s autonomic nervous system is a more recent development. It allows for a more efficient management of heterogeneous distributed computing systems. In the area of computing, autonomic systems are endowed with a number of properties that are generally referred to as self-X properties, including self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, self-protection and more generally self-management. Some isolated examples of autonomic properties such as self-adaptation have found their way into ITS technology and have already proved beneficial. This edited volume provides a comprehensive introduction to Autonomic Road Transport Support (ARTS) and describes the development of ARTS systems. It starts out with the visions, opportunities and challenges, then presents the foundations of ARTS and the platforms and methods used and it closes with experiences from real-world applications and prototypes of emerging applications. This makes it suitable for researchers and practitioners in the fields of autonomic computing, traffic and transport management and engineering, AI, and software engineering. Graduate students will benefit from state-of-the-art description, the study of novel methods and the case studies provided.
