• Abstract: Car following (CF) models are fundamental to describing traffic dynamics. However, the CF behavior of human drivers is highly stochastic and nonlinear. As a result, identifying the best CF model has been challenging and controversial despite decades of research. Introduction of automated vehicles has further complicated this matter as their CF controllers remain proprietary, though their behavior appears different than human drivers. This paper develops a stochastic learning approach to integrate multiple CF models, rather than relying on a single model. The framework is based on approximate Bayesian computation that probabilistically concatenates a pool of CF models based on their relative likelihood of describing observed behavior. The approach, while data-driven, retains physical tractability and interpretability. Evaluation results using two datasets show that the proposed approach can better reproduce vehicle trajectories for both human driven and automated vehicles than any single CF model considered.

  We propose an adaptable personalized car-following framework - MetaFollower. We first utilize Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML) to extract common driving knowledge from various CF events. We additionally combine Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Intelligent Driver Model (IDM) to reflect temporal heterogeneity with high interpretability.

  Most car-following models are generative and only consider the inputs of the speed, position, and acceleration of the last time step. We implement a novel structure with two independent encoders and a self-attention decoder that could sequentially predict the following trajectories. Numerical experiments with multiple settings on simulation and NGSIM datasets show that the IDM-Follower can improve the prediction performance.

  Cloud service providers have launched Machine-Learning-as-a-Service platforms to allow users to access large-scale cloudbased models via APIs. Such extra information inevitably causes the cloud models to be more vulnerable to extraction attacks. We propose a novel simple yet efficient querying strategy to greatly enhance the querying efficiency to steal a classification model.

In addition, we develop an algorithm to extract explainable decision rules from the DRL agent's policy, so as to make the process of generating CFs itself transparent.
