Research on the Algorithm of Automatic Urban Traffic Congestion Identification

Article Preview

Abstract:

A method of traffic congestion identification based on traffic assignment model and SA-PC method is presented through analysis of municipal traffic congestion characteristic. Whether traffic congestion occurs or not is considered as a special classification problem. If the branch road of city is not affected by the signal light, the traffic situation is divided into tow parts: congestion and unimpeded. Using data associated with the traffic parameter for congestion and non congestion, an incremental SA-PC method is trained to detect whether traffic congestion occur or not. Experimental results based on microcosmic traffic simulation indicate that this method is not only feasible but also effective.
