Abstract

Using appropriate models to evaluate the data quality can immediately find abnormal equipments and reduce the cost of labor maintenance. So we can fix them instantly in order to avoid negative effects caused by abnormal data and maintain the function of the intelligent traffic system. In this paper, we introduce a evaluation method of traffic data based on markov model and validate it using the real traffic flow data of Fuzhou. The result of the experiment proves the validity of the method.
