http://statistics.open.ac.uk/TrafficConference
The conference will be held at the OU campus in Milton Keynes.
The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers of different
disciplines interested in the field. Current research on various aspects of
traffic modelling will be presented, including the problems of modelling
traffic flows, networks and journey times.
The programme features the following talks:
David Watling (Leeds)
Statistical inference for traffic network models
Malcolm Farrow (Newcastle)
Stochastic models and diagnostic plots for road traffic vehicle headways
Casper Albers, Catriona Queen (Open University)
A graphical dynamic approach to forecasting and monitoring road traffic flow
networks
Richard Gibbens (Cambridge)
Data, modelling and inference in road traffic networks
Susan Grant-Muller (Leeds)
Getting to grips with congestion - a periurban case study
Jeff Johnson (Open University)
Complexity Science and Transport Systems
Joan Serras (Open University)
Modelling very large Transport Systems
Mila Mihaylova (Lancaster)
Vehicular Traffic Modeling and Traffic Flow Estimation with Particle
Filtering Methods
Eddie Wilson (Bristol)
Differential Equation Models for Forecasting Highway Traffic Flow
Poster presentations welcome. Registration costs £25 and includes
refreshments and lunch. Deadline for registration is 24th March.
