HMM Based Fuzzy Model for Short-Term Traffic Forecasting

Publication: ICTIS 2011: Multimodal Approach to Sustained Transportation System Development: Information, Technology, Implementation

Abstract

This paper presents a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based fuzzy model of short-term traffic forecasting. The model uses three sequential phases. Firstly, the HMM is used to partition the traffic flow data according to the ordering of the calculated log-likelihood values. Then, a recursive top-down algorithm is used to generate the minimum number of rules for accurate forecasting. Finally, a gradient descent method is applied to fine-tune the model parameters. To verify the method in real situation, an experimental model is constructed to produce traffic flow forecasting of freeway in CA, USA based on actual data.
