• Abstract: A recent development in machine learning - physics-informed deep learning (PIDL) - presents unique advantages in transportation applications such as traffic state estimation. Consolidating the benefits of deep learning (DL) and the governing physical equations, it shows the potential to complement traditional sensing methods in obtaining traffic states. In this paper, we first explain the conservation law from the traffic flow theory as ``physics'', then present the architecture of a PIDL neural network and demonstrate its effectiveness in learning traffic conditions of unobserved areas. In addition, we also exhibit the data collection scenario using fog computing infrastructure. A case study on estimating the vehicle velocity is presented and the result shows that PIDL surpasses the performance of a regular DL neural network with the same learning architecture, in terms of convergence time and reconstruction accuracy. The encouraging results showcase the broad potential of PIDL for real-time applications in transportation with a low amount of training data.

  This study proposes physics-informed deep learning (SPIDL) for traffic state estimation. The main contribution of SPIDL lies in addressing the "overly centralized guidance" caused by the one-to-one speed-density relationship in deterministic models during neural network training. Experiments on the real-world dataset indicate that proposed SPIDL models achieve accurate traffic state estimation in sparse data scenarios.
