Data Processing Techniques for Real-Time Traveler Information: Use of Dedicated Short-Range Communications Probes on Suburban Arterial

Abstract

In this study, data processing methods for addressing the two issues are proposed. After investigating the characteristic of the travel times on the test section, the modified z-score was suggested for censoring outliers contained in probe travel times. To mitigate the time-lag phenomenon, a recurrent neural network, a class of deep learning where temporal sequence data are normally treated, was applied to predict travel times.
