Multi-city traffic flow forecasting via multi-task learning

Deep learning on multi-view sequential data: a survey

With the progress of human daily interaction activities and the development of industrial society, a large amount of media data and sensor data become accessible. Humans collect these multi-source data in chronological order, called multi-view sequential data (MvSD). MvSD has numerous potential application domains, including intelligent transportation, climate science, health care, public safety and multimedia, etc. However, as the volume and scale of MvSD increases, the traditional machine learning methods become difficult to withstand such large-scale data, and it is no longer appropriate to use hand-craft features to represent these complex data. In addition, there is no general framework in the process of mining multi-view relationships and integrating multi-view information. In this paper, We first introduce four common data types that constitute MvSD, including point data, sequence data, graph data, and raster data. Then, we summarize the technical challenges of MvSD. Subsequently, we review the recent progress in deep learning technology applied to MvSD. Meanwhile, we discuss how the network represents and learns features of MvSD. Finally, we summarize the applications of MvSD in different domains and give potential research directions.

A Survey of Multi-Agent Cross Domain Cooperative Perception

Intelligent unmanned systems for ground, sea, aviation, and aerospace application are important research directions for the new generation of artificial intelligence in China. Intelligent unmanned systems are also important carriers of interactive mapping between physical space and cyberspace in the process of the digitization of human society. Based on the current domestic and overseas development status of unmanned systems for ground, sea, aviation, and aerospace application, this paper reviewed the theoretical problems and research trends of multi-agent cross-domain cooperative perception. The scenarios of multi-agent cooperative perception tasks in different areas were deeply investigated and analyzed, the scientific problems of cooperative perception were analyzed, and the development direction of multi-agent cooperative perception theory research for solving the challenges of the complex environment, interactive communication, and cross-domain tasks was expounded.

Designing the Controller-Based Urban Traffic Evaluation and Prediction Using Model Predictive Approach

As society grows, the urbanized population proliferates, and urbanization accelerates. Increasing traffic problems affect the normal process of the city. The urban transportation system is vital to the effective functioning of any city. Science and technology are critical elements in improving traffic performance in urban areas. In this paper, a novel control strategy based on selecting the type of traffic light and the duration of the green phase to achieve an optimal balance at intersections is proposed. This balance should be adaptable to fixed behavior of time and randomness in a traffic situation; the goal of the proposed method is to reduce traffic volume in transportation, the average delay for each vehicle, and control the crashing of cars. Due to the distribution of urban traffic and the urban transportation network among intelligent methods for traffic control, the multi-factor system has been designed as a suitable, intelligent, emerging, and successful model. Intersection traffic control is checked through proper traffic light timing modeled on multi-factor systems. Its ability to solve complex real-world problems has made multiagent systems a field of distributed artificial intelligence that is rapidly gaining popularity. The proposed method was investigated explicitly at the intersection through an appropriate traffic light timing by sampling a multiagent system. It consists of many intersections, and each of them is considered an independent agent that shares information with each other. The stability of each agent is proved separately. One of the salient features of the proposed method for traffic light scheduling is that there is no limit to the number of intersections and the distance between intersections. In this paper, we proposed method model predictive control for each intersection’s stability; the simulation results show that the predictive model controller in this multi-factor model predictive system is more valuable than scheduling in the fixed-time method. It reduces the length of vehicle queues.
