Intracity heavy truck freight trips are basic data in city freight system planning and management. In the big data era, massive heavy truck GPS trajectories can be acquired cost effectively in real-time. Identifying freight trip ends (origins and destinations) from heavy truck GPS trajectories is an outstanding problem. Although previous studies proposed a variety of trip end identification methods from different perspectives, these studies subjectively defined key threshold parameters and ignored the complex intracity heavy truck travel characteristics. Here, we propose a data-driven trip end identification method in which the speed threshold for identifying truck stops and the multilevel time thresholds for distinguishing temporary stops and freight trip ends are objectively defined. Moreover, an appropriate time threshold level is dynamically selected by considering the intracity activity patterns of heavy trucks. Furthermore, we use urban road networks and point-of-interest (POI) data to eliminate misidentified trip ends to improve method accuracy. The validation results show that the accuracy of the method we propose is 87.45%. Our method incorporates the impact of the city freight context on truck trajectory characteristics, and its results can reflect the spatial distribution and chain patterns of intracity heavy truck freight trips, which have a wide range of practical applications.

The intercity freight trips of heavy trucks are important data for transportation system planning and urban agglomeration management. In recent decades, the extraction of freight trips from GPS data has gradually become the main alternative to tradit ional surveys. Identifying the trip ends (origin and destination, OD) is the first task in trip extraction. In previous trip end identification methods, some key parameters, such as speed and time thresholds, have mostly been defined on the basis of empirical knowledge, which inevitably lacks universality. Here, we propose a data-driven trip end identification method. First, we define a speed threshold by analyzing the speed distribution of heavy trucks and identify all truck stops from raw GPS data. Second, we define minimum and maximum time thresholds by analyzing the distribution of the dwell times of heavy trucks at stop location and classify truck stops into three types based on these time thresholds. Third, we use highway network GIS data and freight-related points-of-interest (POIs) data to identify valid trip ends from among the three types of truck stops. In this step, we detect POI boundaries to determine whether a heavy truck is stopping at a freight-related location. We further analyze the spatiotemporal characteristics of intercity freight trips of heavy trucks and discuss their potential applications in practice.
In recent years, the development of connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technology has inspired numerous advanced applications targeted at improving existing transportation systems. As one of the widely studied applications of CAV technology, conne cted eco-driving takes advantage of Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) information from traffic signals to enable CAVs to approach and depart from signalized intersections in an energy-efficient manner. However the majority of the connected eco-driving studies have been numerical or microscopic traffic simulations. Only few studies have implemented the application on real vehicles, and even fewer have been focused on heavy-duty trucks. In this study, we developed a connected eco-driving system and equipped it on a heavy-duty diesel truck using cellular-based wireless communications. Field trials were conducted in the City ofCarson, California, along two corridors with six connected signalized intersections capable of communicating their SPaT information. Early results showed the benefits of the system in smoothing the speed profiles of the equipped truck when approaching the connected signalized intersections.
A trajectory, defined as a sequence of location measurements, contains valuable information about movements of an individual. Its value of information (VOI) may change depending on the specific application. However, in a variety of applications, know ing the intrinsic VOI of a trajectory is important to guide other subsequent tasks or decisions. This work aims to find a principled framework to quantify the intrinsic VOI of trajectories from the owners perspective. This is a challenging problem because an appropriate framework needs to take into account various characteristics of the trajectory, prior knowledge, and different types of trajectory degradation. We propose a framework based on information gain (IG) as a principled approach to solve this problem. Our IG framework transforms a trajectory with discrete-time measurements to a canonical representation, i.e., continuous in time with continuous mean and variance estimates, and then quantifies the reduction of uncertainty about the locations of the owner over a period of time as the VOI of the trajectory. Qualitative and extensive quantitative evaluation show that the IG framework is capable of effectively capturing important characteristics contributing to the VOI of trajectories.

City traffic is a dynamic system of enormous complexity. Modeling and predicting city traffic flow remains to be a challenge task and the main difficulties are how to specify the supply and demands and how to parameterize the model. In this paper we attempt to solve these problems with the help of large amount of floating car data. We propose a coarse-grained cellular automata model that simulates vehicles moving on uniform grids whose size are much larger compared with the microscopic cellular automata model. The car-car interaction in the microscopic model is replaced by the coupling between vehicles and coarse-grained state variables in our model. To parameterize the model, flux-occupancy relations are fitted from the historical data at every grids, which serve as the coarse-grained fundamental diagrams coupling the occupancy and speed. To evaluate the model, we feed it with the historical travel demands and trajectories obtained from the floating car data and use the model to predict road speed one hour into the future. Numerical results show that our model can capture the traffic flow pattern of the entire city and make reasonable predictions. The current work can be considered a prototype for a model-based forecasting system for city traffic.
Knowledge discovery from GPS trajectory data is an important topic in several scientific areas, including data mining, human behavior analysis, and user modeling. This paper proposes a task that assigns personalized visited-POIs. Its goal is to estim ate fine-grained and pre-defined locations (i.e., points of interest (POI)) that are actually visited by users and assign visited-location information to the corresponding span of their (personal) GPS trajectories. We also introduce a novel algorithm to solve this assignment task. First, we exhaustively extract stay-points as candidates for significant locations using a variant of a conventional stay-point extraction method. Then we select significant locations and simultaneously assign visited-POIs to them by considering various aspects, which we formulate in integer linear programming. Experimental results conducted on an actual user dataset show that our method achieves higher accuracy in the visited-POI assignment task than the various cascaded procedures of conventional methods.
