Abstract

Nowadays, the urban traffic modeling, which is helpful in planning and controlling the traffic system, has becoming a research hotspot of traffic engineering.  After decades of research and development, there now exists hundreds of models choosing different modeling methods to simulate the traffic flow. It is important for us to understand these models by classifying them and analyzing their features. The features of traffic models, including the scalability, accuracy and computability, are becoming important indicators to measure their performance. In this paper, we introduce and compare some grounded models. In particular, we analyze the advantages and disadvantages of existing models, and classify them into three categories according their granularity: macroscopic, mesoscopic and microscopic models. http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i11.6128
