An arterial street control is performed for the purpose of the progression of a traffic flow using the arterial. However during the progression in the arterial, the change according to the time is one of the most representative problems occurring at a signal plan. This paper intends to efficiently operate the arterial progression by applying fuzzy logic, which is thought to be the most possible one in the inference as that of the human logic, to the traffic responsive control system. Fuzzy Logic controller is appliable to the daily human language (linguistic). can be dealt with the uncertain traffic data and is useful on planning the signal control to sensitively confront the randomly changing traffic condition. This study, based on the signal control part of the isolated intersection in "A Development of a Real-time, Traffic Adaptive Control Scheme Through VIDs"(Seong Ho. Kim. 1996). suggested the strategy for the progression control in the arterial and analyzed its effect by comparing the effect of the existing control method. In addition, the study compared each effect by using TRAF-NETSIM which is the traffic simulation software to analyze each control method.

This study was initiated to develop an optimal signal control algorithm for coordinated signalized intersections using individual vehicle's information which can be collected in a format of prove vehicle data (PVD) via V2I (Vehicle to Infrastructure) communication environment. For developing this signal optimization algorithm, three modules were developed for phase group length computation, split distribution, and phase sequence assignment. The simulation analysis using the microscopic simulation model, Vissim, was conducted for evaluating the effectiveness of the developed algorithm. The analysis result represented that the performance of the developed algorithm is far superior to that of the fixed coordinated signal control method which is the most common signal control method for coordinated signalized intersections in Korea.

신호교차로 운영 최적화를 위한 4가지 변수인 주기, 현시순서, 현시녹색시간, 옵셋 중에서 지금 지 정형화된 지침이 없이 전문가의 경험이나 휴리스틱한 규칙(Heuristic rule)에 의해 결정되었던 현시순서에 대해 다양한 교통조건을 고려하여 최적현시와 지체변화를 분석하였다. 교통조건은 독립/연동교차로, 교차로 기하구조, 비혼잡/혼잡상태, 통과교통량에 대한 좌회전 교통량비(LT/Thru)에 따라 Dual ring에서 구현가능한 모든 현시순서를 대상으로 최적현시를 도출하였다. 분석과정에서 비혼잡상태의 경우 LT/Thru가 작을수록 직진 중첩 동시신호가 가장 우수하게 나왔으며, LT/Thru가 크게 증가할수록 선행양방향좌회전이 양호하게 나타났다. 혼잡상태의 경우는 LT/Thru 15%에서 공통적으로 최적현시가 변하였는데 이는 포화도와 이동류별 녹색시간비율이 크게 변하면서 급작스런 주기 증가에 기인한 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 독립교차로 및 연동교차로 현시순서 분석 결과를 보면 전반적으로 선행양방좌회전 현시와 직진 중첩 동시신호 현시가 가장 양호한 것으로 나타났으며, 양방 동시신호 현시는 대체로 지체가 높게 나타나 신호운영에 비효율적인 것을 다시 한번 입증하게 되었다. 특히 연동교차로에서는 연동에 중요한 요소인 옵셋과 진행대폭(bandwidth)의 상호관계를 탄력적으로 대응할 수 있는 직진 중첩 동시신호가 최적현시로 나타났다. 본 연구는 검지기가 설치되지 않은 고정식 신호기로 운영되는 지방부 및 도시 가로망의 교통류 효율성을 높이는 중요한 자료로 사용될 것으로 판단된다. 최근에는 실시간 교통신호 제어시스템이 활발히 연구. 운영되고 있는데 이 시스템 내에 포함되어 있는 TOD방식의 고정시간 제어(pretimed control)나 패턴선택제어(pattern selection control)에도 충분히 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

A fuzzy traffic controller with the control rules and the membership functions generated by using genetic algorithm is presented for crossroad management. Conventional fuzzy traffic controllers use control rules and membership functions generated by human operators. However, this approach does not guarantee the optimal solution to design fuzzy control system. Genetic algorithm is a good solution for an optimal problem requiring domain-specific knowledge that is often heuristic. In this paper, we use genetic algorithms to automatically determine the near optimal rules and their membership functions of fuzzy traffic controllers. The effectiveness of our method was shown through simulation of crossroad network.

This study analysis traffic phase order alternatives to maximize throughput. According to theoretical analysis alternative2(EW: left turn after through, NS: through after left turn) and alternative5(EW: through after left turn, NS: left turn after through) can minimize the maximum delay. Both alternatives split the phase that have the same destination link under the whole cycle length. This shows that phase order alternative can effect to the fully saturated intersection. In side of simulation analysis by microscopic traffic simulator PTV VISSIM F 7.0, each phase order alternatives can't effect throughput under the non saturated condition. However under the saturated condition, the average controlled delay of the intersection has been changed by phase order alternatives. The simulation analysis shows that alternative2 and alternative5 increase throughput 3.8% to 5.1% under the saturated condition.

There are lots of literature about connected car system from industry and academia. The connected car is a smart car integrated with IT technology that is connected to people, vehicles and traffic management systems. It is important to V2I (vehicle to infrastructure) communication which is the connection between the vehicle and the infrastructure. CIM (cooperative intersection management) is a device to manage the communication between vehicle and infrastructure. In this paper, we analyze two intelligent vehicle control methods using CIM at non-signalized intersections. In the first method, a vehicle to pass through intersection needs to reserve a resource of intersection. In the second method, trajectory patterns on pre-planned vehicles are classified to pass through intersection. We analyze case studies of two methods to be implemented by DP(dynamic programming) and ACO(ant colony optimization) algorithms. The methods can be reasonably improved by placing importance on vehicles or controlling speeds of vehicles.

가상 내시경의 주된 목적은 체내 장기의 3차원적 구조를 가시화하여 광학 내시경을 모사하는데 있다. 가상 내시경 기법 중 펼친 영상 가시화 기법(unfold rendering)은 장기의 내부 구조와 병변의 유무를 쉽게 판단할 수 있도록 하는 장점이 있다. 가장 일반적으로 사용 하는 중심 경로 기반의 광선 투사법은 곡률이 급격하게 변하는 경우 광선들이 교차하여 병변이 두개로 나타나 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 이를 해결하기위해 광선들이 겹치지 않도록 보장하는 여러 기법들이 발표되었지만 계산량이 많은 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 경로의 제어점을 이용하여 적은 비용으로 펼친 영상을 재구성하는 방법을 제안한다. 우선 모든 중심 경로의 제어점에서 경로에 수직인 절단면을 찾는다. 이때 제어점으로부터 방사상으로 광션을 투사하여 절단면과 만나는 장기 내 벽의 위치를 파악한다. 절단면간의 교차 검사 및 보정을 통해 절단연들이 서로 교차하지 않도록 조정한다. 제어점들 사이의 샘플점들은 앞서 구한 임의의 제어점에서 광선이 투사된 위치로 부터 다음 제어점에서 투사된 위치를 잇는 선분을 보간하여 광선 투사 위치를 결정하게 된다. 마지막으로 계산된 방향 따라 광선을 투사하여 영상을 생성한다.

This study aims at developing a method for estimating passenger car equivalency (PCE) values for various vehicle types that could be considered in estimating capacity and delay at intersections without traffic signals, especially at modern small 3-leg roundabouts. Unlike signalized intersections, the PCE value has not yet been treated explicitly in traffic operations involving unsignalized intersections. Both empirical and theoretical approaches for determining the PCE values at modern small 3-leg roundabouts were evaluated. As a result, the PCEs derived in this study were highly correlated with those of field measurements.
