Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and apparatus for merging traffic data with incomplete information, taking into account information from different sources mapped to functions to obtain a result based on calculations with these functions.
- the object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned disadvantages of the prior art.
- it is a method for local determination of traffic situation data, taking into account a plurality of traffic reports with fuzzy location information, which are to be merged as best as possible. It includes the following steps.
- the present invention report deals with an optimal solution of the data fusion problem with incomplete information.
- the weighting factors gx can be determined on the basis of a priori knowledge of the quality of a source. For example, disturbances reported by the police as locally blurred are generally credible and attempts should be made to confirm them; however, police reports are usually not timely deregistered. Further criteria for the gx are the (origin) position of disturbances (disturbances arise at bottlenecks, therefore they are preferably positioned as far downstream as possible) and quality requirements for the end product (eg correctness could be more important than completeness, then the confirmation gb would be strong too) weight). By statistically evaluating the distribution among the categories "affirmation,”"ignorance,” and "refutation,” the assumptions made to set the weights may be reviewed and an adjustment may be made.
- the km i indicate the locations of the connection points.
- L the length of the possible error.
- fusion with the local numerical traffic data is performed as follows. Wherever the sharply localized message competes with non-knowledge from the traffic assessment, the relevant share of the message is adopted as the end product. In all other places, the numerical traffic situation data is preferred.
- the Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 shows a traffic disruption that occurred on 10.01.2005 due to an accident on the A555 from Cologne to Bonn shortly after the junction Bornheim / Alfter (- km 16). From direct observation it was known that the traffic congestion was in the area km 13 - 17. There is no stationary measurement infrastructure in this area.
