Abstract

Particle filter is a good algorithm to deal with non-linear and non-Gaussian problem, but it undergoes high computational complexity and particle degradation problem, and there are few researches in the field of agent-based traffic state estimation. In this paper, a dynamic data driven particle filter is proposed to estimate the traffic states by assimilating real-time data from limited sensors. As the simulation run, the proposed particle filter method can optimize its execution strategies based on the simulation result; furthermore, the real-time data injected into the method can be adjusted dynamically. The agent-based simulation model can display the results in detail, and the traffic state on all roads can be estimated when the particle filter execute to certain precision. Experimental results indicate the framework can estimate the traffic state effectively and the improved particle filter algorithm poses a high accuracy with faster speed.
