• Abstract: Traffic congestion remains a pressing urban challenge, requiring intelligent transportation systems for real-time management. We present a hybrid framework that combines deep learning and reinforcement learning for acoustic vehicle speed classification. A dual-branch BMCNN processes MFCC and wavelet features to capture complementary frequency patterns. An attention-enhanced DQN adaptively selects the minimal number of audio frames and triggers early decisions once confidence thresholds are reached. Evaluations on IDMT-Traffic and our SZUR-Acoustic (Suzhou) datasets show 95.99% and 92.3% accuracy, with up to 1.63x faster average processing via early termination. Compared with A3C, DDDQN, SA2C, PPO, and TD3, the method provides a superior accuracy-efficiency trade-off and is suitable for real-time ITS deployment in heterogeneous urban environments.

  We propose a semi-distributed contextual correlated upper confidence bound (SD-CC-UCB) algorithm to establish an up-to-date user association without explicit measurement of channel state information (CSI) Under a contextual multi-arm bandits framework, SD-CC-UCB learns and predicts the transmission rate given the location and velocity of the vehicle, which can adequately capture the intricate channel condition for a prompt decision on user association. Our proposed algorithm achieves the network throughput within 100%-103% of a benchmark algorithm which requires perfect instantaneous CSI.
