Apparatus for Predicting Traffic Flow on New Road and Method Thereof - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18170665 titled 'Apparatus for Predicting Traffic Flow on New Road and Method Thereof

Simplified Explanation

The embodiment apparatus described in the abstract is a system designed to predict traffic flow on a new road based on a prediction model that has been trained using traffic data corresponding to a default context of the road. The system can then predict traffic flow for various contexts of the new road using this model.

  • The apparatus includes a memory, an input device, and a controller.
  • The input device receives traffic data for the default context of the new road.
  • The controller inputs this data into the prediction model stored in the memory.
  • The prediction model has been trained using completed training data.
  • The controller then predicts traffic flow for different contexts of the new road based on the model.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various fields such as urban planning, transportation management, and infrastructure development to predict traffic flow on new roads accurately.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in predicting traffic flow on new roads, which can assist in optimizing traffic management, reducing congestion, and improving overall road safety.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved traffic flow predictions, better urban planning, enhanced transportation management, and increased road safety.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include selling the system to city planners, transportation departments, and infrastructure development companies to aid in predicting traffic flow on new roads.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be traditional traffic flow prediction models that may not be as accurate or efficient as the system described in this patent application.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system handle real-time traffic data updates?

The abstract does not mention how the system deals with real-time traffic data updates to ensure accurate predictions.

What is the accuracy rate of the traffic flow predictions made by the system?

The abstract does not provide information on the accuracy rate of the traffic flow predictions generated by the system.


Original Abstract Submitted

An embodiment apparatus for predicting traffic flow on a new road includes a memory, an input device, and a controller configured to input traffic data corresponding to a default context of the new road received by the input device to a prediction model stored in the memory, training of which is completed, and to predict a traffic flow corresponding to various contexts of the new road based on the prediction model.
