Abstract

The aim of our work is to develop Intelligent Decision Support (IDS) tools and techniques to convert traffic data into intelligence to assist network managers, operators and to aid the travelling public. The IDS system detects traffic problems, identifies the likely cause and recommends suitable interventions which are most likely to mitigate congestion of that traffic problem. In this paper, we propose to extend the existing tools to include dynamic hierarchical and distributed processing; algorithm optimisation using natural computation techniques; and, using a meta-learner to short-circuit the optimisation by learning the best settings for specific data set characteristics and using these settings to initialise the GA.
