Optimization Model of Traffic Sensor Layout considering Traffic Big Data

الملخص EN

In order to improve the accuracy, reliability, and economy of urban traffic information collection, an optimization model of traffic sensor layout is proposed in this paper.

Considering the impact of traffic big data, a set of impact factors for traffic sensor layout is established, including system cost, multisource data sharing, data demand, sensor failures, road infrastructure, and sensor type.

The impacts of these influential factors are taken into account in the traffic sensor layout optimization problem, which is formulated in the form of multiobjective programming model that includes minimum system cost, maximum truncation flow, minimum path coverage, and an origin-destination (OD) coverage constraint.

The model is solved by the tolerant lexicographic method based on a genetic algorithm.

A case study shows that the model reflects the influence of multisource data sharing and fault conditions and satisfies the origin-destination coverage constraint to achieve the multiobjective optimization of traffic sensor layout.
