Identification of vehicle sensor locations for link-based network traffic applications

Augmented Betweenness Centrality for Environmentally Aware Traffic Monitoring in Transportation Networks

“…Yang & Zhou (1998) proposed a sensor deployment framework to maximize such utilities. This framework has been extended to accommodate turning traffic information (Bianco et al, 2001), existing installations and O-D information content (Ehlert et al, 2006), the screen line problem (Yang et al, 2006), time-varying network flows (Fei et al, 2007) and unobserved link flow estimation (Hu et al, 2009). The work of Bianco et al (2006) considered the problem of locating the minimum number of counting sensors on the network nodes in order to determine arc flow volumes of the entire network.…”

Heterogeneous sensor location model for path reconstruction

“…For full link flow observation problems, Hu et al (2009) proposed a link flow inference method that uses a link-path incidence matrix. The node-link incidence matrix was adopted to determine the optimal traffic sensor locations without path enumeration.…”

The role of ITS in evacuation route optimization for emergency vehicles

“…The aim is allowing at the vehicle to visit all links. A network sensor location problem is solved in [24] to identify subsets of links in which locate the sensors to survey flow data. An approach using some cameras to survey the network is reported in [25].…”
