Abstract:

Outside the specific punishment area, the traditional roadside passive speed limit mode lacks traffic management, and thus which indirectly leads to the inconsistency or even sudden change of vehicle behaviors in time and space, thereby affects the traffic efficiency and safety. Focusing on the proactive speed limit mode at vehicle side, a utility evaluation and recommendation method is proposed, which carries out the multi-scenario traffic simulation for varied proactive and passive speed limit considering road line types, traffic flow and vehicle type proportion. From the two perspectives of safety and efficiency, the utility evaluation indicators and weights are extracted through surrogate safety assessment model and traffic flow operation status, and the integrated learning method is used in further prediction and analysis. The results show that the proactive speed limiting mode can improve the safety and adjusting efficiency. In proactive speed limit, the prediction stability and accuracy of GBDT (gradient boosting decision tree) regression model are higher (R2=0.984).
