Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of traffic data analysis, and in particular to a traffic accident risk management system and method based on road residual capacity. Background Art

[0002] The remaining traffic capacity of an accident scenario road refers to the maximum number of vehicles that can effectively pass through the remaining available lanes (including temporary lanes) within a unit time when some lanes of an expressway or road are closed or traffic conditions are restricted due to an accident. It is affected by a combination of factors such as the scope of the accident, temporary traffic organization measures, speed limits and driver behavior.

[0003] Existing methods for classifying road traffic accidents primarily base their classification on factors such as the number of lanes affected, the time of the accident, and the type and nature of the accident. For example, road traffic accidents are categorized into four types: minor, general, major, and extreme, based on the severity of casualties or the amount of property damage. Some regions also categorize traffic accidents based on the type and nature of the accident, such as rear-end collisions, fixed object collisions, skidding, and rollovers.

[0004] None of the aforementioned accident classification methods consider the actual traffic conditions at the time of the accident, lack a foresight into the scope and extent of the accident's impact, and therefore cannot directly guide road operators to take prompt measures to ensure smooth and safe traffic. In reality, traffic conditions are constantly changing. Failure to respond promptly and quickly to accidents can lead to significant secondary accidents, widespread congestion, and other traffic problems. Summary of the Invention

[0062] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0063] Example: Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution, a traffic accident risk management method based on the remaining road capacity.

[0064] Step S100: When a traffic accident occurs on a section of the highway, the flow records of vehicles on the section are collected, and the accident characteristics of the traffic accident are obtained to classify the vehicle flow records;

[0065] Wherein, step S100 includes:

[0070] Step S200: Record the traffic flow records of vehicles corresponding to a certain accident characteristic as target traffic flow records, set a sampling section, obtain the types of vehicles passing through the sampling section and the traffic flow of each type of vehicle, extract the characteristic values ​​of the target traffic flow records, and aggregate the characteristic values ​​into a characteristic sequence;

[0071] Wherein, step S200 includes:

[0072] Step S201: Obtain the location of the traffic accident, and from the location, obtain the nearest interchange entrance and exit in the road section in the opposite direction of the road traffic direction. The interchange entrance and exit may include a hub-type interchange entrance and exit or a service-type interchange entrance and exit;

[0073] Highway interchanges are the junctions between highways and other roads. Their main function is to connect traffic between different regions and improve transportation efficiency. Hub interchanges allow vehicles to transfer between different highways.

[0074] Step S202: Setting a distance threshold d, recording a location d away from the location in the opposite direction of the road as the associated location of the traffic accident, and the sampling section is located between the interchange entrance and exit and the associated location;

[0075] Step S203: Record the sampled section as the upstream section of the traffic accident, obtain the record of vehicles passing through the upstream section per unit time, count the number of vehicles by vehicle type, and obtain the ratio of the number of vehicles of each type to the total number of vehicles passing through the upstream section per unit time;

[0076] Preferably, the unit time is 1 hour.

[0077] In the embodiment, video surveillance information on the highway is collected, and the Yolov-5 algorithm is used to analyze the number of vehicles in the accident point section and the upstream traffic flow of real accident samples;

[0078] Step S204: Calculate the correction coefficient f of traffic composition to traffic capacity per unit time CB , , where P x The PCE represents the ratio of the number of vehicles of type x to the total number of vehicles passing through the upstream section. x represents the vehicle conversion coefficient of the xth vehicle type, and k represents the total number of vehicle types;

[0079] In the embodiment, the types of vehicles on the highway are divided into: small cars, medium-sized cars, large cars and car trains. According to the provisions of the "Highway Engineering Technical Standard" (JTG B01-2014), the vehicle conversion coefficients of small cars, medium-sized cars, large cars and car trains are set to 1.0, 1.5, 2.5 and 4.0 respectively;

[0080] Step S205: Obtain the vehicle record of the t-th unit time period, record the total number of vehicles passing the upstream section in the t-th unit time period as Qt, and obtain the correction coefficient f of the t-th unit time period. t CB , calculate the i-th traffic volume Q i , , where τ represents the constant term coefficient, and T represents the length of the t-th unit time period;

[0081] When the unit time is 1 hour, τ is 60;

[0082] Step S206: Obtain the total number of vehicles passing the location of the traffic accident in the t-th unit time period, and record it as q i , Q i and q i Form a data set R (Q i ,q i ), collect the data sets of w time periods to obtain the feature sequence.

[0083] Step S300: drawing a two-dimensional scatter plot of the characteristic sequence in a plane coordinate system, performing function fitting on the two-dimensional scatter plot, and drawing a capacity curve;

[0084] Step S300 includes:

[0085] Step 3-1: Set the data group number threshold α. When w < α, collect the real value of vehicle traffic records. Use the VISSIM simulation model to obtain the simulated traffic volume of the upstream section per unit time and the simulated number of vehicles passing the accident location per unit time.

[0086] Step 3-2: Group the simulated traffic volume and the simulated number of vehicles into a simulated data group, and aggregate the simulated data group into a feature sequence;

[0087] When α=15, and w<15, data supplementation is performed by VISSIM simulation;

[0088] Obtain information about the highway section to be simulated, such as road alignment, design speed, cross-section characteristics, etc., and build a matching VISSIM micro-simulation model.

[0089] The simulation model is calibrated and fine-tuned using indicators such as the hourly traffic volume Q of the section upstream of the accident point, the hourly number of vehicles passing the accident point q, and the queue length to restore the real accident scene.

[0090] The vehicle input, vehicle model ratio, and accident location in the VISSIM simulation model are consistent with data from real accident videos. By adjusting parameters such as the maximum deceleration, safety distance reduction factor, and minimum headway in driving behavior in VISSIM, the error between the hourly number of vehicles passing the accident point output by the simulation model and the hourly number of vehicles passing the accident point counted in real video data is kept within 5%. At the same time, the error of other indicators that can be obtained from the video, such as queue length, is also kept within 5% as much as possible.

[0091] By adjusting parameters such as the maximum deceleration, safety distance reduction coefficient, and minimum headway, the error between the number of vehicles passing the accident point per hour and the queue length output by the simulation model and the actual value is within 5%, ensuring the credibility of the simulation model.

[0092] Take 500n (n=4, 5, 6...) as the vehicle input in the VISSIM simulation model input parameters Simulate step by step and output the number of vehicles passing through the accident point per hour , It is the "Vehicle Input" parameter item in VISSIM;

[0093] When 2000≤V i ≤9000, by setting up data collection points at the accident sites, collecting the hourly vehicle count corresponding to different vehicle inputs , thus obtaining the simulation series .

[0094] Step S301: Setting a first coordinate axis and a second coordinate axis to establish a plane coordinate system, wherein the first coordinate axis represents: the traffic volume of the upstream section of the accident point per unit time, and the second coordinate axis represents the number of traffic flows passing the location of the traffic accident per unit time, obtaining all data groups of the feature sequence, mapping the values ​​in the data groups to coordinates on the plane coordinate system, and plotting the two-dimensional scatter points corresponding to all data groups in the plane coordinate system;

[0095] Step S302: Perform function fitting on the two-dimensional scattered points using a polynomial fitting function. Each fitting is performed to obtain a fitting function. After h fittings, the obtained h fitting functions are collected into a reference function set.

[0096] In the embodiment, a fitting function is selected to fit the scattered data and a capacity curve is drawn;

[0097] According to the distribution characteristics of the scatter plot, a polynomial fitting function is selected to fit the data set. Fitting is performed and the sum of squares of errors is minimized by the least squares method to find the best matching function for the data.

[0098] The set of scattered series is:

[0099] ;

[0100] in, The relationship satisfies the function:

[0101] ;

[0102] Then the polynomial fitting function is:

[0103] ;in, ——polynomial coefficients;

[0104] Solve the polynomial coefficients through the matrix, that is:

[0105] , ;

[0106] Then the sum of squared errors of the entire point set can be expressed as:

[0107] ;

[0108] Taking the derivative with respect to W, we get:

[0109] ; Finally, the polynomial coefficient W is obtained, namely:

[0110] .

[0111] Step S400: obtaining a plurality of capacity curves, performing goodness of fit and complexity evaluation on the capacity curves, and obtaining the optimal fitting curve of the plurality of capacity curves;

[0112] Wherein, step S400 includes:

[0113] Step S401: Calculate the Akaike Information Criterion value of each fitting function in the reference function set, where the Akaike Information Criterion value of the j-th fitting function is AIC j , , where p j Indicates the number of parameters of the fitting model when fitting the j-th fitting function, n j Indicates the number of observations of the fitting model when fitting the j-th fitting function, RSS j Represents the residual sum of squares when fitting the j-th fitting function;

[0114] Step S402: Calculate the Akaike Information Criterion values ​​of all fitting functions in the reference function set, and take the fitting function corresponding to the minimum Akaike Information Criterion value as the optimal fitting function.

[0115] In the embodiment, there are now 15 groups (Q, q), the number of model observations n=15, and a cubic polynomial is selected, so p=3, and the residual sum of squares RSS of the fitting function is calculated to be 753483.49, then AIC=2*3-15*ln(753483.49 / 15)=174.37;

[0116] Then choose the quartic polynomial, p=4, RSS=415205.57, then AIC=2*4-15*ln(415205.57 / 15)=170.19; the AIC value of the quartic polynomial is lower.

[0117] Step S500: taking the optimal fitting curve as the target curve of a certain accident characteristic, taking the flow rate corresponding to the extreme point of the target curve as the remaining capacity of the sampling section, and calculating the remaining capacity coefficient of the remaining capacity;

[0118] Wherein, step S500 includes:

[0119] Step S501: Taking the traffic volume of the upstream section of the accident point per unit time as an independent variable, deriving the optimal fitting function to obtain the extreme value point of the optimal fitting function;

[0120] Step S502: Mark the coordinates of the extreme point as (Q ep ,q ep ), when the number of extreme points is 1, q ep As the residual capacity cv of the upstream section, when the number of extreme points exceeds 1, q ep The maximum value is taken as the residual capacity c of the upstream section v ;

[0121] Step S503: Calculate the residual capacity coefficient f for a certain accident characteristic r , f r =c v / c0, where c0 represents the basic traffic capacity coefficient of the road section;

[0122] Step S504: establishing a corresponding relationship between the accident characteristics, the remaining capacity and the remaining capacity coefficient, and collecting them into the road network traffic flow operation impact database.

[0123] Step S600: Obtain the accident characteristics of the current traffic accident, match the residual capacity coefficient, collect actual vehicle traffic records to establish a classification model, and conduct a quantitative assessment of the impact caused by the traffic accident;

[0124] Step S600 includes:

[0125] Step S601: Record the upstream section of the current traffic accident as the target upstream section, and obtain the traffic volume Rt of the target upstream section per unit time;

[0126] Step S602: Obtain the accident characteristics of the current traffic accident and match the remaining traffic capacity cr in the road network traffic flow operation impact database;

[0127] Step S603: Calculate the supply-demand ratio SR, SR = Rt / cr, set three limit thresholds β1, β2 and β3, where β1 < β2 < β3, and determine the risk level of the traffic accident by the supply-demand ratio being within the interval formed by the limit thresholds.

[0128] In the embodiment, β1 is in the range of [0.4, 0.6] and is related to the queue length and average vehicle speed. When the traffic situation shows intermittent queues of vehicles, regular fluctuations in driving speed, and vehicles following each other, for example, when the opportunity for drivers to change lanes autonomously is significantly reduced, the ratio of actual traffic flow to remaining traffic capacity is β1;

[0129] The range of β2 is [0.9, 1.1], at which point the actual traffic flow is close to the remaining capacity of the road.

[0130] β3 comprehensively considers the requirements on queue length and handling time in the "Traffic Blockage Information Reporting System", and follows the principle that "sudden blockage information that causes congestion of more than 2km on expressways (including toll stations and service areas), and queues longer than 500 meters and lasting for more than 30 minutes at mainline toll stations must be reported to the competent authorities". When the congestion in the blockage state is close to 2km, and the queue length at the mainline toll station is close to 500 meters and lasts close to 30 minutes, the ratio of actual traffic flow to remaining traffic capacity is β3.

[0131] When SR < β1, the actual traffic flow demand is far lower than the remaining road capacity, and the traffic accident has little impact on traffic flow. Drivers and passengers can basically pass the accident point smoothly as they wish. The driving speed is smooth and there is enough space to change lanes. There is almost no risk of safe driving. The handling plan is: issue an accident warning message;

[0132] When β1<SR<β2, the actual traffic flow demand is still lower than or close to the remaining traffic capacity of the road. The impact of traffic accidents on traffic flow increases. Drivers and passengers need to consider the interference of neighboring vehicles when passing the accident site. The driving speed at the accident site may be reduced, and there may be local parking queues at the accident site, but they can dissipate naturally. The handling plan is to issue accident warning information and take speed limit measures.

[0133] When β2 < SR < β3, the actual traffic demand exceeds the remaining road capacity, and the accident duration does not exceed the requirements of the "Traffic Blockage Information Reporting System" and other documents (generally 30 minutes). Queues form upstream of the accident site and congestion continues to spread, significantly increasing the risk of road driving safety. The response plan is to issue accident warning information, implement speed limit measures, and take traffic control measures.

[0134] When SR>β3, the actual traffic flow demand is far higher than the remaining traffic capacity of the road, or the accident duration exceeds the requirements of the "Traffic Blockage Information Reporting System". If the control strategy is not immediately implemented, the congestion upstream of the accident point will spread rapidly, and the queue length will exceed the requirements of the "Traffic Blockage Information Reporting System" (generally 2km). Accident warning information will be issued, speed limit measures will be taken, and flow control measures will be taken.
