Abstract
At traffic control centers there is a need to predict the traffic flow in road networks for a horizon of about 30 min or longer. At traffic control centers, there is a need to predict the traffic flow in road networks for a horizon of about 30 min or longer. The predictions are needed to detect troublesome traffic situations before they occur, primarily congestion, and to evaluate one or more control scenarios. The chapter summarizes the following: (1) an adaptive prediction algorithm for prediction of traffic flow at the boundary of the road network and (2) a method to compute coordinated–distributed prediction of traffic flow in a road network.
