Estimation of stochastic traffic capacity using extreme value theory and censoring: A case study in Salem, New Hampshire [PDF]

Archives of Transport, 2018
In this work, we introduce a method of estimating stochastic freeway capacity using elements of both extreme value theory and survival analysis. First, we define capacity data, or estimates of the capacity of the roadway, as the daily maximum flow values.

Implementing Estimation of Capacity for Freeway Sections

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2011
Based on the stochastic concept for freeway capacity, the procedure of capacity estimation is developed. Due to the fact that it is impossible to observe the value of the capacity and to obtain the probability distribution of the capacity, the product ...

Influence Factor Analysis of Stochastic Capacity of Shanghai Expressway Segment

Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2013
AbstractRecent studies have introduced a new approach of estimating expressway capacity. The capacity of expressway segments is treated as a random variable instead of the traditional approach of a constant value. Different distribution functions are compared and the Weibull-distribution is used as the distribution function of stochastic capacity.

Detecting change in stochastic sound sequences.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2018
Our ability to parse our acoustic environment relies on the brain's capacity to extract statistical regularities from surrounding sounds. Previous work in regularity extraction has predominantly focused on the brain's sensitivity to predictable patterns ...

Ultimate a seismic capacity of high earth-rock dams based on stochastic dynamic analysis

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The randomness of seismic motion significantly affects the dynamic response of dams. The ultimate capacity is a critical factor for the seismic safety of dams, thus during the assessment process the influences of load randomness should be thoroughly ...
