Comparison of several traffic forecasting methods based on travel time index data on weekends

Traffic forecasting provides the estimation of future traffic state to help traffic control,travel guide,etc. This paper compared several widely used traffic forecasting methods,and analyzed each one's performance in detail to make conclusions,which could redound to researchers choosing an appropriate traffic forecasting method in their own works. Compared with conventional works,this paper creatively assessed the performance of traffic forecasting methods based on travel time index (TTI) data prediction,wh...     

基于出租车跟踪的市区路网交通状态估计方法

为了获取市区路网的交通状态,提出了一种基于出租车跟踪的市区路网交通状态估计方法。该方法采用GPS定位设备获取出租车的行驶数据,然后结合数字地图数据对其中的位置数据进行修正,并采用A^＊启发式搜索算法对出租车进行跟踪,最终通过计算出租车跟踪路径在所覆盖路段上的置信参数来实现对市区路网交通状态的估计。基于上海市的出租车GPS调度数据和市区路网数字地图数据的应用实例验证了这一方法的可用性。
