CoSLight: Co-optimizing Collaborator Selection and Decision-making to Enhance Traffic Signal Control

Effective multi-intersection collaboration is pivotal for reinforcement-learning-based traffic signal control to alleviate congestion. Existing work mainly chooses neighboring intersections as collaborators. However, quite an amount of congestion, …

X-Light: Cross-City Traffic Signal Control Using Transformer on Transformer as Meta Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learner

The effectiveness of traffic light control has been significantly improved by current reinforcement learning-based approaches via better cooperation among multiple traffic lights. However, a persisting issue remains: how to obtain a multi-agent …

DuaLight: Enhancing Traffic Signal Control by Leveraging Scenario-Specific and Scenario-Shared Knowledge

Reinforcement learning has been revolutionizing the traditional traffic signal control task, showing promising power to relieve congestion and improve efficiency. However, the existing methods lack effective learning mechanisms capable of absorbing …

MultiFun-DAG: Multivariate Functional Directed Acyclic Graph

Directed Acyclic Graphical (DAG) models efficiently formulate causal relationships in complex systems. Traditional DAGs assume nodes to be scalar variables, characterizing complex systems under a facile and oversimplified form. This paper considers …

FELight: Fairness-Aware Traffic Signal Control Via Sample-Efficient Reinforcement Learning

Traffic congestion is becoming an increasingly prominent problem, and intelligent traffic signal control methods can effectively alleviate it. Recently, there has been a growing trend of applying reinforcement learning to traffic signal control for …

A Unified Probabilistic Framework for Spatiotemporal Passenger Crowdedness Inference within Urban Rail Transit Network

This paper proposes the Spatio-Temporal Crowdedness Inference Model (STCIM), a framework to infer the passenger distribution inside the whole urban rail transit (URT) system in real-time. Our model is practical since the model is designed in a …

MM-DAG: Multi-task DAG Learning for Multi-modal Data--with Application for Traffic Congestion Analysis

This paper proposes to learn Multi-task, Multi-modal Direct Acyclic Graphs (MM-DAGs), which are commonly observed in complex systems, e.g., traffic, manufacturing, and weather systems, whose variables are multi-modal with scalars, vectors, and …

GESA: A General Scenario-agnostic Reinforcement Learning for Traffic Signal Control

Reinforcement learning has been recently adopted to revolutionize and optimize traditional traffic signal control systems. Existing methods are either based on a single scenario or multiple independent scenarios, where each scenario has a separate …
