Abstract:This paper summarizes a performance evaluation of the automatic incident detection algorithm deployed by many traffic management centers across the State of Texas, USA after a few years of implementation in the field. This analysis is the first step towards improving performance of incident detection which will eventually help optimizing freeway incident management practices at these TMCs. To conduct this analysis, the researchers used archived ITS data, particularly freeway incident alarms and incident scenar… Show more
