  • Robust Methods and Conditional Expectations for Vehicular Traffic Count Analysis Jorma Kilpi1* , Ilkka Norros2, Pirkko Kuusela1, Fanny Malin1 and Tomi Räty1
    Kilpi et al. European Transport Research Review (2020) 12:10 European Transport https://doi.org/10.1186/s12544-020-0399-8 Research Review ORIGINAL PAPER Open Access Robust methods and conditional expectations for vehicular traffic count analysis Jorma Kilpi1* , Ilkka Norros2, Pirkko Kuusela1, Fanny Malin1 and Tomi Räty1 Abstract We study the problem of making algorithmic statistical inferences about the dynamics of city traffic. Our data is based on loop detector counts of observed vehicles in various roads in the city of Tampere, Finland. We show that meaningful correlations can be found between traffic asymmetries at different measurement locations. The traffic asymmetry is the difference of the traffic counts of the opposite directions of a road. The correlations can be further quantified by estimating how much they effect on the average values of the traffic asymmetries at the neighbouring locations. Conditional expectations, both sample and binormal model-based versions are useful tools for quantifying this effect. The uncertainty bounds of conditional expectations of the binormal model distribution are extremely useful for outlier detection. Furthermore, conditional expectations of the multinormal distribution model can be used to recover missing data with bounds to uncertainty. Keywords: Loop detector, Traffic count data, Robust statistics, Truncated distribution, Multinormal distribution 1 Introduction The motivation of this work is to provide a statistically People’s travel behavior is initiated by the need to travel robust algorithmic framework for automated analysis of and then choosing the mode, route and time for trips. loop detector data.

Mielipide A Vaihtoehto 2:een liittyviä kommentteja Rakennusaikainen haitta liikenteelle: Työ tulee kestämään n. 4 vuotta ja sinä aikana ohjaillaan liikenne tunnelityömaan molemmissa päissä tilapäisjärjestelyillä, mikä tulee aiheuttamaan jatkuvia ruuhkia Rantaväylälle, Pispalanvaltatielle ja keskustan kaduille. Osa liikenteestä siirtyy tästä syystä käyttämään eteläistä ohitustietä, vaikka matka olennaisesti piteneekin. Liikenteen päästöt lisääntyvät. Louheen poiskuljetus: Merkittävä ympäristöhaitta syntyy myös siitä, että lähes miljoona kuutiota louhetta (joka tekee useita kuormia tunnissa koko rakennusajan) pitää kuljettaa raskaalla kalustolla. Tämä aiheuttaa melua ja päästöjä ja haittaa muuta liikennettä. Joukkoliikenne: Suunniteltuun tunneliin ei tule joukkoliikennekaistoja eli suunnitelma tukee vain yksityisautoilu. Rautatieliikenne: Onkiniemen kohdalle suunniteltu tien osuus estää toisen rataparin rakentamisen ja tekee tulevaisuudessa mahdottomaksi kiskoliikenteen käytön paikallisliikenteessä.

What do you do with objects that have been damaged by fire or in transfers between collections? These questions prompted the collection management team of Tampere Museums to develop a value classification system in 1994. This system has been applied since, and has proved to be a practical tool for collection management. The system has already been refined through experience. We hope that this article will provoke discussion and motivate museums to develop common collection management methods. TAMPERE MUSEUMS further strengthened by the establishment of a railway network.
