The automatic traffic congestion identification of freeway based on charging date

Abstract:

In view of increasingly serious traffic congestion on freeway, a synthesis method of travel time date was proposed based on the rolling time sequence and charging data, and on which this paper built a traffic congestion index and estimated the duration time according to the changing characteristics of the index. Moreover, taking the spatial and temporal characteristics of toll station layout into account, a method of automatic traffic congestion identification on freeway was designed by merging basic links with composite links. Empirical analysis shows that this method can improve the recognizing rate to 96.52% and reduce the false recognizing rate to 0.43%, at the same time, the recognizing time is declined by 74%, and the cost of charging date is zero.
