Vehicle Navigation System based on Pollution Metric Analysis with Q-Learning Algorithm

The navigation systems available in the present scenario takes into account the path distance for their estimations. In some advanced navigation systems, the road traffic analysis is also considered in the algorithm for their predictions. The proposed work estimates a navigation path with respect to the present pollution level on the roadways. The work suggests an alternate path to avoid additional vehicles to enter the same road which is already impacted by air pollution. A Q-learning (Quality learning) prediction algorithm is trained in the proposed work with a self-made dataset for the estimations. The experimental work presented in the paper explores the accuracy and computational speed of the developed algorithm in comparison to the traditional algorithms.
