Framework for fusing traffic information from social and physical transportation data

Abstract: Tremendous volumes of messages on social media platforms provide supplementary traffic information and encapsulate crowd wisdom for solving transportation problems. However, social media messages manifested in human languages are usually characterized with redundant, fuzzy and subjective features. Here, we develop a data fusion framework to identify social media messages reporting non-recurring traffic events by connecting the traffic events with traffic states inferred from taxi global positioning system (GPS… Show more

“…Meanwhile, other researchers combined social media with GPS sensors to get better results and more accurate locations. Zheng et al [17] used taxi GPS and Weibo data to analyze traffic anomalies in China and Wang et al [18] collected data from different sources such as social media, GPS, points of interest, and weather data to discover traffic congestion and detect traffic anomalies.…”
