Abstract

Many existing traffic signal control strategies are operated with data from roadside surveillance systems. In recent years, vehicle-based data have become more and more accessible for various applications. In this paper, we propose a calibration-free traffic signal control scheme using vehicle-based data as input. Traffic conditions are characterized as discrete queue cycle state (DQCS) which are then used as input to the calibration-free traffic signal control scheme with the reinforcement learning approach. The k-nearest neighbor algorithm is applied in our calibration-free model. The effectiveness of the proposed model is examined with different traffic scenarios.
