Big Data application in congestion detection and classification using Apache spark


الملخص بالإنكليزية

With the era of big data, an explosive amount of information is now available. This enormous increase of Big Data in both academia and industry requires large-scale data processing systems. A large body of research is behind optimizing Sparks performance to make it state of the art, a fast and general data processing system. Many science and engineering fields have advanced with Big Data analytics, such as Biology, finance, and transportation. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) gain popularity and direct benefit from the richness of information. The objective is to improve the safety and management of transportation networks by reducing congestion and incidents. The first step toward the goal is better understanding, modeling, and detecting congestion across a network efficiently and effectively. In this study, we introduce an efficient congestion detection model. The underlying network consists of 3017 segments in I-35, I-80, I-29, and I-380 freeways with an overall length of 1570 miles and averaged (0.4-0.6) miles per segment. The result of congestion detection shows the proposed method is 90% accurate while has reduced computation time by 99.88%.
