Classification and Regression Tree Approach for Predicting Drivers’ Merging Behavior in Short-Term Work Zone Merging Areas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study aims to use the classification and regression tree (CART) approach, one of the most powerful data mining techniques, to predict drivers’ merging behavior in a work zone merging area. On the basis of the eight ...
Self-Similar Characteristics of Vehicle Arrival Pattern on Highways
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the quantitative characteristics of the vehicle arrival pattern on highways. Inspired from a remarkable finding on data network traffic that most data packet arrival patterns follow the self-similar ...
Origin-Based Partial Linearization Method for the Stochastic User Equilibrium Traffic Assignment Problem
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a modified origin-based partial linearization method for solving the logit-based stochastic user equilibrium traffic assignment problem formulated by a strictly convex minimization model in terms of ...
Stochastic Schedule–Based Optimization Model for Track Allocations in Large Railway Stations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper develops a track allocation model for large railway stations based on stochastic schedules, which considers balanced utilization as well as minimum occupation time of station tracks. The stochastic schedule is ...
Logit-Based Stochastic User Equilibrium Problem for Entry-Exit Toll Schemes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a logit-based stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) problem for networks with entry-exit toll schemes that result in nonadditive path costs. First, it develops a strictly convex minimization model in terms ...
Multiobjective Vehicle Routing and Scheduling Problem with Time Window Constraints in Hazardous Material Transportation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel vehicle routing and scheduling problem in transporting hazardous materials for networks with multiple time-varying attributes. It actually aims to identify all nondominated time-varying paths ...
Robust Optimization Model of Bus Transit Network Design with Stochastic Travel Time
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The design of urban bus transit systems aims to determine a network configuration with a set of bus lines and associated frequencies that achieve the targeted objective. This paper presents a methodology framework to ...
Microscopic Traffic Simulation Model-Based Optimization Approach for the Contraflow Lane Configuration Problem
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper addresses the optimal contraflow lane configuration problem arising in the contraflow lane control strategy that has been implemented successfully in practice. The problem is formulated as a bilevel programming ...
