Short‐Term Traffic Speed Prediction for an Urban Corridor

Abstract

Short‐term traffic speed prediction is one of the most critical components of an intelligent transportation system (ITS). The accurate and real‐time prediction of traffic speeds can support travellers’ route choices and traffic guidance/control. In this article, a support vector machine model (single‐step prediction model) composed of spatial and temporal parameters is proposed. Furthermore, a short‐term traffic speed prediction model is developed based on the single‐step prediction model. To test the accuracy of the proposed short‐term traffic speed prediction model, its application is illustrated using GPS data from taxis in Foshan city, China. The results indicate that the error of the short‐term traffic speed prediction varies from 3.31% to 15.35%. The support vector machine model with spatial‐temporal parameters exhibits good performance compared with an artificial neural network, a k‐nearest neighbor model, a historical data‐based model, and a moving average data‐based model.

“…In terms of punctuality, we describe it by the variation in travel time. [33][34][35] And punctuality of subway is set as 1, while the car's punctuality is 2. Both smaller values of comfort and punctuality mean better situations.…”

Research on the Development of Intelligent Management System for Urban Underground Corridor Based on Cloud Computing

“…The NF5280M4 server is able to effectively support the cloud infrastructure by virtue of its modular design and cooling system [11]. The data storage uses high-performance cluster storage devices and is connected to each compute node through the FC protocol, so that the stored data stream does not occupy the service network bandwidth to meet the storage and access requirements for large amounts of data during the operation of the corridor.…”

Fleet routing and scheduling problem based on constraints of chance

“…One cargo is made up of the specified amount of the product to be extracted in the designated port, which is transported and unloaded at the designated unloading port. Because the exact time is important for loading, 2,3 there is often a time window in port of loading. Due to berth resource scarcity properties during this period, ships must begin the process of loading of the goods as soon as possible.…”
