Empirical Approaches

Novel methods for implementation of detector-level multivariate screening methods are presented. The methods use present data and classify data as outliers on the basis of comparisons with empirical cutoff points derived from extensive archived data rather than from standard statistical tables. In addition, while many of the ideas of the classical Hotelling’s T2-statistic are used, modern statistical trend removal and blocking are incorporated. The methods are applied to intelligent transportation system data from San Antonio and Austin, Texas. These examples show how the suggested new methods perform with high-quality traffic data and apparently lower-quality traffic data. All algorithms were implemented by using the SAS programming language.

AbstractIncreased number of the vehicles on the streets around the world has led to several problems including traffic congestion, emissions, and huge fuel consumption in many regions. With advances in wireless and traffic technologies, the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) has been introduced as a viable solution for solving these problems by implementing more efficient use of the current infrastructures. In this paper, the possibility of using cellular-based Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) communications, LTE-M and NB-IoT, for ITS applications has been investigated. LTE-M and NB-IoT are designed to provide long range, low power and low cost communication infrastructures and can be a promising option which has the potential to be employed immediately in real systems. In this paper, we have proposed an architecture to employ the LPWAN as a backhaul infrastructure for ITS and to understand the feasibility of the proposed model, two applications with low and high delay requirements have been examined: road traffic monitoring and emergency vehicle management. Then, the performance of using LTE-M and NB-IoT for providing backhaul communication infrastructure has been evaluated in a realistic simulation environment and compared for these two scenarios in terms of end-to-end latency per user. Simulation of Urban MObility has been used for realistic traffic generation and a Python-based program has been developed for evaluation of the communication system. The simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of using LPWAN for ITS backhaul infrastructure mostly in favor of the LTE-M over NB-IoT.

This paper presents fog-based intelligent transportation systems (ITS) architecture for traffic light optimization. Specifically, each intersection consists of traffic lights equipped with a fog node. The roadside unit (RSU) node is deployed to monitor the traffic condition and transmit it to the fog node. The traffic light center (TLC) is used to collect the traffic condition from the fog nodes of all intersections. In this work, two traffic light optimization problems are addressed where each problem will be processed either on fog node or TLC according to their requirements. First, the high latency for the vehicle to decide the dilemma zone is addressed. In the dilemma zone, the vehicle may hesitate whether to accelerate or decelerate that can lead to traffic accidents if the decision is not taken quickly. This first problem is processed on the fog node since it requires a real-time process to accomplish. Second, the proposed architecture aims each intersection aware of its adjacent traffic condition. Thus, the TLC is used to estimate the total incoming number of vehicles based on the gathered information from all fog nodes of each intersection. The results show that the proposed fog-based ITS architecture has better performance in terms of network latency compared to the existing solution in which relies only on TLC.

This paper intends to explore the convergence of some technological innovations that could lead to new cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The technologies that might soon converge and lead to some new developments are: the Blockchain Technology (BT) concept, Internet of Things (IoT) and Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAV). Advantages and disadvantages of the new concepts founding a new ITS system are discussed in this conceptual paper. Blockchain technology has been recently introduced and many research ideas have been presented for application in the transportation sector. In this paper, we discuss a system that is based on a dedicated blockchain, able to involve both drivers and city administrations in the adoption of promising and innovative technologies that will create cooperation among connected vehicles. The proposed blockchain-based system can allow city administrators to reward drivers when they are willing to share travel data. The system manages in a special way the creation of rewards which are assigned to drivers and institutions participating actively in the system. Moreover, the system allows keeping a complete track of all transactions and interactions between drivers and city management on a completely open and shared platform. The main idea is to combine connected vehicles with BT to promote Cooperative ITS use, a better use of infrastructures and a more sustainable eco-system of cryptocurrencies. A short description of BT is introduced to evidence energy problems of sustainability in the implementation of Proof of Work (PoW) that is adopted by many blockchains.

Aggregation Level

Appropriate aggregation levels and sampling frames of real-time data in intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) are indispensable to transportation planners and engineers. Conventional techniques for the retrieval of aggregation levels are normally based on statistical comparison of the original and the aggregated data sets. However, it is not guaranteed that errors and noise will not be transmitted to the aggregated data sets and that the desired information will be reserved. Wavelet decomposition is a new technique that can be applied to the determination of aggregation level. An optimization process that can provide the optimized aggregation level of ITS data for different applications was developed. To illustrate the proposed technique, ITS data archived by the TransGuide Center in San Antonio, Texas, were used for a case study. Aggregation levels for different days of a week and different time periods over the whole year of 2001 were obtained through the proposed approach.

The concept of big Data for intelligent transportation system has been employed for traffic management on dealing with dynamic traffic environments. Big data analytics helps to cope with large amount of storage and computing resources required to use mass traffic data effectively. However these traditional solutions brings us unprecedented opportunities to manage transportation data but it is inefficient for building the next-generation intelligent transportation systems as Traffic data exploring in velocity and volume on various characteristics. In this article, a new deep intelligent prediction network has been introduced that is hierarchical and operates with spatiotemporal characteristics and location based service on utilizing the Sensor and GPS data of the vehicle in the real time. The proposed model employs deep learning architecture to predict potential road clusters for passengers. It is injected as recommendation system to passenger in terms of mobile apps and hardware equipment employment on the vehicle incorporating location based services models to seek available parking slots, traffic free roads and shortest path for reach destination and other services in the specified path etc. The underlying the traffic data is classified into clusters with extracting set of features on it. The deep behavioural network processes the traffic data in terms of spatiotemporal characteristics to generate the traffic forecasting information, vehicle detection, autonomous driving and driving behaviours. In addition, markov model is embedded to discover the hidden features .The experimental results demonstrates that proposed approaches achieves better results against state of art approaches on the performance measures named as precision, execution time, feasibility and efficiency.

Abstract. Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is one of the main components of a smart city. ITS have several purposes including the increase of the safety and comfort of the passengers and the reduction of the road accidents. ITS can enhance safety in three modes before, within and after the collision by preventing accident via assistive system, sensing the collision situation and calculating the time of the collision and providing the emergency response in a timely manner. The main objective of this paper is related to the smart transportation services which can be provided at the time of the collision and after the accident. After the accident, it takes several minutes to hours for the person to contact the emergency department. If an accident takes place for a vehicle in a remote area, this time increases and that may cause the loss of life. In addition, determination of the exact location of the accident is difficult by the emergency centres. That leads to the possibility of erroneous responder act in dispatching the rescue team from the nearest hospital. A new assistive intelligent system is designed in this regard that includes both software and hardware units. Hardware unit is used as an On-Board Unit (OBU), which consists of GPS, GPRS and gyroscope modules. Once OBU detects the accident, a notification system designed and connected to OBU will sent an alarm to the server. The distance to the nearest emergency center is calculated using Dijkstra algorithm. Then the server sends a request for assistance to the nearest emergency centre. The proposed system is developed and tested at local laboratory conditions. The results show that this system can reduce Ambulance Arrival Time (AAT). The preliminary results and architecture of the system have been presented. The inclination angle determined by the proposed system along with the car position identified by the installed GPS sensor assists the crash/accident warning part of the system to send a help request to the nearest road emergency centre. These results verified that the probability of having a remote and smart car crash/accident decision support system using the proposed system has been improved compared to that of the existing systems.

System Data

The intelligent transportation system (ITS) components deployed in U.S. urban areas produce vast amounts of data. These ITS data often are used for real-time operations and then are discarded. Few transportation management centers have any mechanism for sharing the data resources among other transportation groups or agencies within the same jurisdiction. Meanwhile, transportation analysts and researchers often struggle to obtain accurate, reliable data about existing transportation performance and patterns. The development of an ITS data management system (referred to as ITS DataLink) that is used to store, access, analyze, and present data from the TransGuide center in San Antonio, Texas, is presented. Data outputs are both tabular and graphical. No user costs are associated with the system except for an Internet connection.
