Systematic Review on Classical Car-Following Models

Abstract

To further clarify the ideas and methods of the classical car-following model, this paper systematically combs the modeling methods of the classical car-following model. The PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis) is applied to To improve the quality of literature review. The “car-following model” was used as a keyword to search literature related to GHR, OVM, IDM, SDM, NEWELL and CA models from 11 electronic databases. By constructing the literature quality evaluation index system, 40 papers meeting the requirements were selected. The modeling ideas, model structure, advantages and disadvantages, application scope and expansion of six classical models were summarized. Finally, the development trend and research direction of car-following model are envisioned, providing a reference for further improvement of model construction.
