Spatiotemporal Traffic Density Estimation Based on ADAS Probe Data by Donghyun Lim, Younghoon Seo, Eunjeong Ko, Jaehyun(Jason) So, Hyungjoo Kim

“…On the other hand, existing density estimation method requires a large number of probe vehicles and its numerous data sets including either the global positioning system data or the dedicated short-range communication data. To verify the proposed methodology, a two-step evaluation is performed: the first step is a numerical evaluation that estimates the spatiotemporal traffic density based on the simulated vehicle trajectory data, and the second step is an empirical evaluation that estimates the density based on the real-road data in both peak and nonpeak periods. …”
