• Title: Predicting highway lane-changing maneuvers: A benchmark analysis of machine and ensemble learning algorithms
• Authors: Basma Khelfa, Ibrahima Ba, Antoine Tordeux
• Abstract summary: We compare different machine and ensemble learning classification techniques to the rule-based model. We predict two types of discretionary lane-change maneuvers: Overtaking (from slow to fast lane) and fold-down. If the rule-based model provides limited predicting accuracy, especially in case of fold-down, the data-based algorithms, devoid of modeling bias, allow significant prediction improvements.

• Abstract: Understanding and predicting lane-change maneuvers on highways is essential for driving modeling and its automation. The development of data-based lane-changing decision-making algorithms is nowadays in full expansion. We compare empirically in this article different machine and ensemble learning classification techniques to the MOBIL rule-based model using trajectory data of European two-lane highways. The analysis relies on instantaneous measurements of up to twenty-four spatial-temporal variables with the four neighboring vehicles on current and adjacent lanes. Preliminary descriptive investigations by principal component and logistic analyses allow identifying main variables intending a driver to change lanes. We predict two types of discretionary lane-change maneuvers: Overtaking (from slow to fast lane) and fold-down (from fast to slow lane). The prediction accuracy is quantified using total, lane-changing and lane-keeping errors and associated receiver operating characteristic curves. The benchmark analysis includes logistic model, linear discriminant, decision tree, na\"ive Bayes classifier, support vector machine, neural network machine learning algorithms, and up to ten bagging and stacking ensemble learning meta-heuristics. If the rule-based model provides limited predicting accuracy, especially in case of fold-down, the data-based algorithms, devoid of modeling bias, allow significant prediction improvements. Cross validations show that selected neural networks and stacking algorithms allow predicting from a single observation both fold-down and overtaking maneuvers up to four seconds in advance with high accuracy.

  This study introduces a novel deep learning architecture, referred to as the multigraph convolution neural network (MGCNN) for turning movement prediction at intersections. The proposed architecture combines a multigraph structure, built to model temporal variations in traffic data, with a spectral convolution operation to support modeling the spatial variations in traffic data over the graphs. The model's ability to perform short-term predictions over 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 minutes into the future was evaluated against four baseline state-of-the-art models.

  We consider a dataset with flux and velocity data of vehicles moving on a highway, collected by fixed sensors and classified by lane and by class of vehicle. We extrapolate two important pieces of information: 1) if congestion is appearing under the sensor, and 2) the total amount of vehicles which is going to pass under the sensor in the next future. These pieces of information are then used to improve the accuracy of an LWR-based first-order multi-class model describing the dynamics of traffic flow between sensors.
