Based on the reliability budget and percentile travel time (PTT) concept, a new travel time index named combined mean travel time (CMTT) under stochastic traffic network was proposed. CMTT here was defined as the convex combination of the conditional expectations of PTT-below and PTT-excess travel times. The former was designed as a risk-optimistic travel time index, and the latter was a risk-pessimistic one. Hence, CMTT was able to describe various routing risk-attitudes. The central idea of CMTT was comprehensively illustrated and the difference among the existing travel time indices was analysed. The Wardropian combined mean traffic equilibrium (CMTE) model was formulated as a variational inequality and solved via an alternating direction algorithm nesting extra-gradient projection process. Some mathematical properties of CMTT and CMTE model were rigorously proved. In the end, a numerical example was performed to characterize the CMTE network. It is founded that that risk-pessimism is of more benefit to a modest (or low) congestion and risk network, however, it changes to be risk-optimism for a high congestion and risk network.

This study investigates dynamic system-optimal (DSO) and dynamic user equilibrium (DUE) traffic assignment of departure/arrival-time choices in a corridor network. The morning commute problems with a many-to-one pattern of origin-destination demand a nd the evening commute problems with a one-to-many pattern are considered. Specifically, a novel approach to derive closed-form solutions for both DSO and DUE problems is developed. We first derive a closed-form solution to the DSO problem based on the regularities of the cost and flow variables at an optimal state. By utilizing this solution, we prove that the queuing delay at a bottleneck in a DUE solution is equal to an optimal toll that eliminates the queue in a DSO solution under certain conditions of a schedule delay function. This enables us to derive a closed-form DUE solution by using the DSO solution. We also show the theoretical relationship between the DSO and DUE assignment. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate and verify the analytical results.

This paper presents scalable traffic stability analysis for both pure autonomous vehicle (AV) traffic and mixed traffic based on continuum traffic flow models. Human vehicles are modeled by a non-equilibrium traffic flow model, i.e., Aw-Rascle-Zhang (ARZ), which is unstable. AVs are modeled by the mean field game which assumes AVs are rational agents with anticipation capacities. It is shown from linear stability analysis and numerical experiments that AVs help stabilize the traffic. Further, we quantify the impact of AVs penetration rate and controller design on the traffic stability. The results may provide insights for AV manufacturers and city planners.

We consider the distributed optimization problem where $n$ agents each possessing a local cost function, collaboratively minimize the average of the $n$ cost functions over a connected network. Assuming stochastic gradient information is available, w e study a distributed stochastic gradient algorithm, called exact diffusion with adaptive stepsizes (EDAS) adapted from the Exact Diffusion method and NIDS and perform a non-asymptotic convergence analysis. We not only show that EDAS asymptotically achieves the same network independent convergence rate as centralized stochastic gradient descent (SGD) for minimizing strongly convex and smooth objective functions, but also characterize the transient time needed for the algorithm to approach the asymptotic convergence rate, which behaves as $K_T=mathcal{O}left(frac{n}{1-lambda_2}right)$, where $1-lambda_2$ stands for the spectral gap of the mixing matrix. To the best of our knowledge, EDAS achieves the shortest transient time when the average of the $n$ cost functions is strongly convex and each cost function is smooth. Numerical simulations further corroborate and strengthen the obtained theoretical results.
In this paper we study a class of combined regular and singular stochastic control problems that can be expressed as constrained BSDEs. In the Markovian case, this reduces to a characterization through a PDE with gradient constraint. But the BSDE for mulation makes it possible to move beyond Markovian models and consider path-dependent problems. We also provide an approximation of the original control problem with standard BSDEs that yield a characterization of approximately optimal values and controls.
We study the convergence to equilibrium of an underdamped Langevin equation that is controlled by a linear feedback force. Specifically, we are interested in sampling the possibly multimodal invariant probability distribution of a Langevin system at small noise (or low temperature), for which the dynamics can easily get trapped inside metastable subsets of the phase space. We follow [Chen et al., J. Math. Phys. 56, 113302, 2015] and consider a Langevin equation that is simulated at a high temperature, with the control playing the role of a friction that balances the additional noise so as to restore the original invariant measure at a lower temperature. We discuss different limits as the temperature ratio goes to infinity and prove convergence to a limit dynamics. It turns out that, depending on whether the lower (target) or the higher (simulation) temperature is fixed, the controlled dynamics converges either to the overdamped Langevin equation or to a deterministic gradient flow. This implies that (a) the ergodic limit and the large temperature separation limit do not commute in general, and that (b) it is not possible to accelerate the speed of convergence to the ergodic limit by making the temperature separation larger and larger. We discuss the implications of these observation from the perspective of stochastic optimisation algorithms and enhanced sampling schemes in molecular dynamics.
