Abstract

Flock traffic navigation based on negotiation (FTN) is a new approach for solving traffic congestion problems in big cities. Early works suppose a navigation path based on a bone-structure made by initial, ending and geometrical intersection points of two agents and their rational negotiations. In this paper we present original methods based on clustering analysis to allow other agents to enter or abandon flocks according to their own self interests.
