Data-Driven Solutions to Transportation Problems

Data-Driven Solutions to Transportation Problems explores the fundamental principle of analyzing different types of transportation-related data using methodologies such as the data fusion model, the big data mining approach, computer vision-enabled traffic sensing data analysis, and machine learning. The book examines the state-of-the-art in data-enabled methodologies, technologies and applications in transportation. Readers will learn how to solve problems relating to energy efficiency under connected vehicle environments, urban travel behavior, trajectory data-based travel pattern identification, public transportation analysis, traffic signal control efficiency, optimizing traffic networks network, and much more.

• Synthesizes the newest developments in data-driven transportation science
• Includes case studies and examples in each chapter that illustrate the application of methodologies and technologies employed
• Useful for both theoretical and technically-oriented researchers
