RoadRank Algorithm – A Novel Method to Calculate Traffic Index for an Area

Abstract:

Traffic index hasbeen used to provide accurate traffic information to users. Many models havebeen developed to calculate the index for a road, but how to define andcalculate the index for an area still needs more investigation. Here we proposea new model for area index, including a definition of area index itself and a methodto calculate it. But this model can’t be widely used, for some innatelimitations. So we put forward another method based on well-known algorithmPageRank to calculate area index. To test the effectiveness, we apply ouralgorithmto conduct several experiments. Our experiments using standard trafficstatistics provided by ShanghaiTraffic Information Center (STIC), show our method have values for real-time traffic information system.
