Cellular Automaton Modeling Driver Behavior at a Single-Lane Roundabout

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper a cellular automata model is proposed to describe driver behavior at a single-lane roundabout. Two truncated Gaussian distributions are used to model heterogeneous and inconsistent driver behavior. Numerical results show that our method is feasible and valid.
