Hierarchical Graph Pooling is an Effective Citywide Traffic Condition Prediction Model

Accurate traffic conditions prediction provides a solid foundation for vehicle-environment coordination and traffic control tasks. Because of the complexity of road network data in spatial distribution and the diversity of deep learning methods, it becomes challenging to effectively define traffic data and adequately capture the complex spatial nonlinear features in the data. This paper applies two hierarchical graph pooling approaches to the traffic prediction task to reduce graph information redundancy. First, this paper verifies the effectiveness of hierarchical graph pooling methods in traffic prediction tasks. The hierarchical graph pooling methods are contrasted with the other baselines on predictive performance. Second, two mainstream hierarchical graph pooling methods, node clustering pooling and node drop pooling, are applied to analyze advantages and weaknesses in traffic prediction. Finally, for the mentioned graph neural networks, this paper compares the predictive effects of different graph network inputs on traffic prediction accuracy. The efficient ways of defining graph networks are analyzed and summarized.

Transfer Learning and Vision Transformer based State-of-Health prediction of Lithium-Ion Batteries

In recent years, significant progress has been made in transportation electrification. And lithium-ion batteries (LIB), as the main energy storage devices, have received widespread attention. Accurately predicting the state of health (SOH) can not only ease the anxiety of users about the battery life but also provide important information for the management of the battery. This paper presents a prediction method for SOH based on Vision Transformer (ViT) model. First, discrete charging data of a predefined voltage range is used as an input data matrix. Then, the cycle features of the battery are captured by the ViT which can obtain the global features, and the SOH is obtained by combining the cycle features with the full connection (FC) layer. At the same time, transfer learning (TL) is introduced, and the prediction model based on source task battery training is further fine-tuned according to the early cycle data of the target task battery to provide an accurate prediction. Experiments show that our method can obtain better feature expression compared with existing deep learning methods so that better prediction effect and transfer effect can be achieved.

A Transferable Intersection Reconstruction Network for Traffic Speed Prediction

Traffic speed prediction is the key to many valuable applications, and it is also a challenging task because of its various influencing factors. Recent work attempts to obtain more information through various hybrid models, thereby improving the prediction accuracy. However, the spatial information acquisition schemes of these methods have two-level differentiation problems. Either the modeling is simple but contains little spatial information, or the modeling is complete but lacks flexibility. In order to introduce more spatial information on the basis of ensuring flexibility, this paper proposes IRNet (Transferable Intersection Reconstruction Network). First, this paper reconstructs the intersection into a virtual intersection with the same structure, which simplifies the topology of the road network. Then, the spatial information is subdivided into intersection information and sequence information of traffic flow direction, and spatiotemporal features are obtained through various models. Third, a self-attention mechanism is used to fuse spatiotemporal features for prediction. In the comparison experiment with the baseline, not only the prediction effect, but also the transfer performance has obvious advantages.

Spatial-Temporal Feature Extraction and Evaluation Network for Citywide Traffic Condition Prediction

Traffic prediction plays an important role in the realization of traffic control and scheduling tasks in intelligent transportation systems. With the diversification of data sources, reasonably using rich traffic data to model the complex spatial-temporal dependence and nonlinear characteristics in traffic flow are the key challenge for intelligent transportation system. In addition, clearly evaluating the importance of spatial-temporal features extracted from different data becomes a challenge. A Double Layer - Spatial Temporal Feature Extraction and Evaluation (DL-STFEE) model is proposed. The lower layer of DL-STFEE is spatial-temporal feature extraction layer. The spatial and temporal features in traffic data are extracted by multi-graph graph convolution and attention mechanism, and different combinations of spatial and temporal features are generated. The upper layer of DL-STFEE is the spatial-temporal feature evaluation layer. Through the attention score matrix generated by the high-dimensional self-attention mechanism, the spatial-temporal features combinations are fused and evaluated, so as to get the impact of different combinations on prediction effect. Three sets of experiments are performed on actual traffic datasets to show that DL-STFEE can effectively capture the spatial-temporal features and evaluate the importance of different spatial-temporal feature combinations.

Tire Force Estimation in Intelligent Tires Using Machine Learning

The concept of intelligent tires has drawn attention of researchers in the areas of autonomous driving, advanced vehicle control, and artificial intelligence. The focus of this paper is on intelligent tires and the application of machine learning techniques to tire force estimation. We present an intelligent tire system with a tri-axial acceleration sensor, which is installed onto the inner liner of the tire, and Neural Network techniques for real-time processing of the sensor data. The accelerometer is capable of measuring the acceleration in x,y, and z directions. When the accelerometer enters the tire contact patch, it starts generating signals until it fully leaves it. Simultaneously, by using MTS Flat-Trac test platform, tire actual forces are measured. Signals generated by the accelerometer and MTS Flat-Trac testing system are used for training three different machine learning techniques with the purpose of online prediction of tire forces. It is shown that the developed intelligent tire in conjunction with machine learning is effective in accurate prediction of tire forces under different driving conditions. The results presented in this work will open a new avenue of research in the area of intelligent tires, vehicle systems, and tire force estimation.

Tire Slip Angle Estimation based on the Intelligent Tire Technology

Tire slip angle is a vital parameter in tire/vehicle dynamics and control. This paper proposes an accurate estimation method by the fusion of intelligent tire technology and machine-learning techniques. The intelligent tire is equipped by MEMS accelerometers attached to its inner liner. First, we describe the intelligent tire system along with the implemented testing apparatus. Second, experimental results under different loading and velocity conditions are provided. Then, we show the procedure of data processing, which will be used for training three different machine learning techniques to estimate tire slip angles. The results show that the machine learning techniques, especially in frequency domain, can accurately estimate tire slip angles up to 10 degrees. More importantly, with the accurate tire slip angle estimation, all other states and parameters can be easily and precisely obtained, which is significant to vehicle advanced control, and thus this study has a high potential to obviously improve the vehicle safety especially in extreme maneuvers.
