Capturing heterogeneity
MT-ITS 2015 3-5. JUNE 2015, BUDAPEST 3
Calibration essential for traffic simulation models
Heterogeneity in driving behavior => lots of useful
information
Point/aggregate measures miss a lot of information
Not a single distribution, but distributions of subgroups
Overview

Capture the behavior of drivers in relation with the preceding vehicle in the same lane Multi-agent models with differential equations, each of which captures a different state
Car – Following Models
Overview

A comprehensive methodology that will allow quick and efficient calibration of models parameters is important The Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation (SPSA) could be a fairly promising algorithm
Optimization approach

Calibration using Distributions
Most of the proposed calibration approaches choose to calibrate a few
selected parameters for simplicity
In emergency situations, it is important to depart from point values and
restrict the necessary assumptions by dealing with distributions
The proposed approach assumes as input a set of measured
distributions
The data need to be appropriately preprocessed
Distributions have been used in some off-line calibration studies
Methodology
MT-ITS 2015 3-5. JUNE 2015, BUDAPEST 8
Calibration using Distributions
Point values of surveillance data have been used in this
research
A distribution of values for each parameter has been
defined.
SPSA identifies the optimal combination of parameters for
each observation

Conclusion
MT-ITS 2015 3-5. JUNE 2015, BUDAPEST 20
Developed distributions of car-following model parameters
Captured heterogeneous driver behavior
Utilized state-of-the-art efficient optimization algorithms
(SPSA)
Future research prospects
MT-ITS 2015 3-5. JUNE 2015, BUDAPEST 21
Application of the methodology in more complex situations Incorporation of the distribution of model parameter values
into a simulation model The phenomena observed in the present application should
be explained through further extensive experiments Vehicle dynamics and the correlation between different
parameter values should also be taken into account
