CONGESTION PREDICTION DEVICE, CONGESTION PREDICTION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240112571 titled 'CONGESTION PREDICTION DEVICE, CONGESTION PREDICTION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a congestion prediction device and method that utilizes machine learning to predict the degree of congestion in a specific area based on input variables related to congestion levels at regular time intervals.
- The mapping in the device outputs a variable indicating the degree of congestion in a specific area.
- Input variables include congestion variables representing congestion levels at regular time intervals within a specific period.
- The output variable predicts the degree of congestion after a lapse of the regular time interval from the end time of the specific period.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in traffic management systems, urban planning, and logistics to predict congestion levels in specific areas and optimize routes and schedules accordingly.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the challenge of accurately predicting congestion levels in advance, allowing for better decision-making in managing traffic flow and resource allocation.
