A new strategy to optimizing the waveforms of cognitive radar under transmitted power constraint is presented. Our scheme is to enhance the performance of target estimation by minimizing the MSE (mean-square error) of the estimates of target scattering coefficients (TSC) based on Kalman filtering and then minimizing mutual information (MI) between the radar target echoes at successive time instants. The two steps are the optimal design of transmission waveform and the selection of a reasonable waveform from the ensemble for emission, respectively. The waveform design technique addresses the problems of target detection and parameter estimation in intelligent transportation system (ITS), where there is a need of extracting the features of target information obtained from different sensors. As the number of iterations increases, simulation results show better TSC estimation from the radar scene provided by the proposed approach as compared with the traditional waveform optimization algorithm. In addition, the proposed algorithm results in improved target detection probability.

This paper studies on the algorithm to improve the location of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Considering multi-path effect in the localization, an improved RSSI algorithm is introduced in the localization algorithm. The localization results are analyzed under different density of beacon nodes, and Kalman filtering algorithm is introduced to reduce the influence of signal noise. Finally, to test the algorithm based on Kalman filtering algorithm, a simulation model of ITS is developed, which is used to simulate the localization of real vehicles. The simulation shows the algorithm has effect to improve location accuracy and to application.

AbstractData mining techniques support numerous applications of intelligent transportation systems (ITSs). This paper critically reviews various data mining techniques for achieving trip planning in ITSs. The literature review starts with the discussion on the contributions of descriptive and predictive mining techniques in ITSs, and later continues on the contributions of the clustering techniques. Being the largely used approach, the use of cluster analysis in ITSs is assessed. However, big data analysis is risky with clustering methods. Thus, evolutionary computational algorithms are used for data mining. Though unsupervised clustering models are widely used, drawbacks such as selection of optimal number of clustering points, defining termination criterion, and lack of objective function also occur. Eventually, various drawbacks of evolutionary computational algorithm are also addressed in this paper.

Real-time and accurate traffic flow forecasting is one of the key contents of Intelligent Transportation System. For the disadvantage of parameter selection of Support Vector Regression (SVR), an improved artificial fish swarm (IAFS) algorithm using the adaptive search mechanism was applied to optimize SVR. This method aimed at improving the prediction accuracy and extensibility of short-term traffic flow forecasting. Then a short-term traffic flow forecasting model based on IAFS-SVR was proposed. The results show that the proposed method has better prediction performance, and is suitable for short-term traffic flow forecasting.

This paper proposes a new algorithm for the detection of moving objects based on picture blocks and HVS color space of image differences techniques. The experimental results show that this algorithm can overcome the weakness of image background differencing and coterminous frame differencing method and suppress shadows effectively with advantages of self-adaptation and high speed. It can be used to detect the high-speed moving objects in the complex.
