First, the characteristics of traffic wave propagation is analyzed for the simple signal-controlled lane and the critical conditions for oversaturation is established. Then, the basic road is decomposed into a series of one-way links according to its topological characteristics. Based on the decomposition, traffic wave propagation under complex conditions is studied. Three complicated factors are considered to establish the corresponding critical conditions of jam formation, namely, dynamic and insufficient split, channelized section spillover and endogenous traffic flow. The results show that road geometric features, traffic demand structures and signal settings influence the formation and propagation of traffic congestion. These findings can serve as a theoretical basis for future network jam control.展开更多

While it significantly enhances user privacy, it also inadvertently shields cyber-attacks from detection, presenting a formidable challenge to cybersecurity. Traditional machine learning and deep learning techniques often fall short in identifying encrypted malicious traffic due to their inability to fully extract and utilize the implicit relational and positional information embedded within data packets. This limitation has led to an unresolved challenge in the cybersecurity community: how to effectively extract valuable insights from the complex patterns of traffic packet transmission. Consequently, this paper introduces the TB-Graph model, an encrypted malicious traffic classification model based on a relational graph attention network. The model is a heterogeneous traffic burst graph that embeds side-channel features, which are unaffected by encryption, into the graph nodes and connects them with three different types of burst edges. Subsequently, we design a relational positional coding that prevents the loss of temporal relationships between the original traffic flows during graph transformation. Ultimately, TB-Graph leverages the powerful graph representation learning capabilities of Relational Graph Attention Network (RGAT) to extract latent behavioral features from the burst graph nodes and edge relationships. Experimental results show that TB-Graph outperforms various state-of-the-art methods in fine-grained encrypted malicious traffic classification tasks on two public datasets, indicating its enhanced capability for identifying encrypted malicious traffic.展开更多

To address ...Accurate traffic flow prediction has a profound impact on modern traffic management. Traffic flow has complex spatial-temporal correlations and periodicity, which poses difficulties for precise prediction. To address this problem, a Multi-head Self-attention and Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network (MSSTGCN) for multiscale traffic flow prediction is proposed. Firstly, to capture the hidden traffic periodicity of traffic flow, traffic flow is divided into three kinds of periods, including hourly, daily, and weekly data. Secondly, a graph attention residual layer is constructed to learn the global spatial features across regions. Local spatial-temporal dependence is captured by using a T-GCN module. Thirdly, a transformer layer is introduced to learn the long-term dependence in time. A position embedding mechanism is introduced to label position information for all traffic sequences. Thus, this multi-head self-attention mechanism can recognize the sequence order and allocate weights for different time nodes. Experimental results on four real-world datasets show that the MSSTGCN performs better than the baseline methods and can be successfully adapted to traffic prediction tasks.展开更多

文摘With network attack technology continuing to develop,traditional anomaly traffic detection methods that rely on feature engineering are increasingly insufficient in efficiency and accuracy.Graph Neural Network(GNN),a promising Deep Learning(DL)approach,has proven to be highly effective in identifying intricate patterns in graph⁃structured data and has already found wide applications in the field of network security.In this paper,we propose a hybrid Graph Convolutional Network(GCN)⁃GraphSAGE model for Anomaly Traffic Detection,namely HGS⁃ATD,which aims to improve the accuracy of anomaly traffic detection by leveraging edge feature learning to better capture the relationships between network entities.We validate the HGS⁃ATD model on four publicly available datasets,including NF⁃UNSW⁃NB15⁃v2.The experimental results show that the enhanced hybrid model is 5.71%to 10.25%higher than the baseline model in terms of accuracy,and the F1⁃score is 5.53%to 11.63%higher than the baseline model,proving that the model can effectively distinguish normal traffic from attack traffic and accurately classify various types of attacks.
文摘Reliable traffic flow prediction is crucial for mitigating urban congestion.This paper proposes Attentionbased spatiotemporal Interactive Dynamic Graph Convolutional Network(AIDGCN),a novel architecture integrating Interactive Dynamic Graph Convolution Network(IDGCN)with Temporal Multi-Head Trend-Aware Attention.Its core innovation lies in IDGCN,which uniquely splits sequences into symmetric intervals for interactive feature sharing via dynamic graphs,and a novel attention mechanism incorporating convolutional operations to capture essential local traffic trends—addressing a critical gap in standard attention for continuous data.For 15-and 60-min forecasting on METR-LA,AIDGCN achieves MAEs of 0.75%and 0.39%,and RMSEs of 1.32%and 0.14%,respectively.In the 60-min long-term forecasting of the PEMS-BAY dataset,the AIDGCN out-performs the MRA-BGCN method by 6.28%,4.93%,and 7.17%in terms of MAE,RMSE,and MAPE,respectively.Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our pro-posed model over state-of-the-art methods.

文摘Low-carbon smart parks achieve selfbalanced carbon emission and absorption through the cooperative scheduling of direct current(DC)-based distributed photovoltaic,energy storage units,and loads.Direct current power line communication(DC-PLC)enables real-time data transmission on DC power lines.With traffic adaptation,DC-PLC can be integrated with other complementary media such as 5G to reduce transmission delay and improve reliability.However,traffic adaptation for DC-PLC and 5G integration still faces the challenges such as coupling between traffic admission control and traffic partition,dimensionality curse,and the ignorance of extreme event occurrence.To address these challenges,we propose a deep reinforcement learning(DRL)-based delay sensitive and reliable traffic adaptation algorithm(DSRTA)to minimize the total queuing delay under the constraints of traffic admission control,queuing delay,and extreme events occurrence probability.DSRTA jointly optimizes traffic admission control and traffic partition,and enables learning-based intelligent traffic adaptation.The long-term constraints are incorporated into both state and bound of drift-pluspenalty to achieve delay awareness and enforce reliability guarantee.Simulation results show that DSRTA has lower queuing delay and more reliable quality of service(QoS)guarantee than other state-of-the-art algorithms.

文摘Traffic wave theory is used to study the critical conditions for traffic jams according to their features. First, the characteristics of traffic wave propagation is analyzed for the simple signal-controlled lane and the critical conditions for oversaturation is established. Then, the basic road is decomposed into a series of one-way links according to its topological characteristics. Based on the decomposition, traffic wave propagation under complex conditions is studied. Three complicated factors are considered to establish the corresponding critical conditions of jam formation, namely, dynamic and insufficient split, channelized section spillover and endogenous traffic flow. The results show that road geometric features, traffic demand structures and signal settings influence the formation and propagation of traffic congestion. These findings can serve as a theoretical basis for future network jam control.
文摘The aim of this study is to determine the level to which the public is aware about ITS(intelligent transportation systems)technologies and how they perceive the potential advantages and inhibitors of ITS in Michigan.A survey was performed with 200 participants living in Michigan,in urban,suburban and rural areas.Questions covered in the survey included how often and how bad traffic congestion occurred,how familiar travelers were with ITS technologies(adaptive traffic signals,real time monitoring of the traffic)and how much support travelers would provide for ITS initiatives.Results reveal that there is a high degree of traffic congestion awareness,there is low public awareness of ITS technologies.While respondents who were aware of ITS solutions had positive views about deploying them,especially in urban areas,they were less supportive of ITS solutions than they were among those who did not know much about these.Factors including area of residence,commute time and age were perceived to influence ITS along with more positive attitudes to ITS amongst urban dwellers and younger respondents.Analysis of key barriers to ITS implementation reflected high initial costs,challenges with technical integration and users’concerns surrounding privacy.

文摘Network traffic classification is a crucial research area aimed at improving quality of service,simplifying network management,and enhancing network security.To address the growing complexity of cryptography,researchers have proposed various machine learning and deep learning approaches to tackle this challenge.However,existing mainstream methods face several general issues.On one hand,the widely used Transformer architecture exhibits high computational complexity,which negatively impacts its efficiency.On the other hand,traditional methods are often unreliable in traffic representation,frequently losing important byte information while retaining unnecessary biases.To address these problems,this paper introduces the Swin Transformer architecture into the domain of network traffic classification and proposes the NetST(Network Swin Transformer)model.This model improves the Swin Transformer to better accommodate the characteristics of network traffic,effectively addressing efficiency issues.Furthermore,this paper presents a traffic representation scheme designed to extract meaningful information from large volumes of traffic while minimizing bias.We integrate four datasets relevant to network traffic classification for our experiments,and the results demonstrate that NetST achieves a high accuracy rate while maintaining low memory usage.

文摘Traffic congestion plays a significant role in intelligent transportation systems(ITS)due to rapid urbanization and increased vehicle concentration.The congestion is dependent on multiple factors,such as limited road occupancy and vehicle density.Therefore,the transportation system requires an effective prediction model to reduce congestion issues in a dynamic environment.Conventional prediction systems face difficulties in identifying highly congested areas,which leads to reduced prediction accuracy.The problem is addressed by integrating Graph Neural Networks(GNN)with the Lion Swarm Optimization(LSO)framework to tackle the congestion prediction problem.Initially,the traffic information is collected and processed through a normalization process to scale the data and mitigate issues of overfitting and high dimensionality.Then,the traffic flow and temporal characteristic features are extracted to identify the connectivity of the road segment.From the connectivity and node relationship graph,modeling improves the overall prediction accuracy.During the analysis,the lion swarm optimization process utilizes the concepts of exploration and exploitation to understand the complex traffic dependencies,which helps predict high congestion on roads with minimal deviation errors.There are three core optimization phases:roaming,hunting,and migration,which enable the framework to make dynamic adjustments to enhance the predictions.The framework’s efficacy is evaluated using benchmark datasets,where the proposed work achieves 99.2%accuracy and minimizes the prediction deviation value by up to 2.5%compared to other methods.With the new framework,there was a more accurate prediction of realtime congestion,lower computational cost,and improved regulation of traffic flow.This system is easily implemented in intelligent transportation systems,smart cities,and self-driving cars,providing a robust and scalable solution for future traffic management.

文摘Spatial-temporal traffic prediction technology is crucial for network planning,resource allocation optimizing,and user experience improving.With the development of virtual network operators,multi-operator collaborations,and edge computing,spatial-temporal traffic data has taken on a distributed nature.Consequently,noncentralized spatial-temporal traffic prediction solutions have emerged as a recent research focus.Currently,the majority of research typically adopts federated learning methods to train traffic prediction models distributed on each base station.This method reduces additional burden on communication systems.However,this method has a drawback:it cannot handle irregular traffic data.Due to unstable wireless network environments,device failures,insufficient storage resources,etc.,data missing inevitably occurs during the process of collecting traffic data.This results in the irregular nature of distributed traffic data.Yet,commonly used traffic prediction models such as Recurrent Neural Networks(RNN)and Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)typically assume that the data is complete and regular.To address the challenge of handling irregular traffic data,this paper transforms irregular traffic prediction into problems of estimating latent variables and generating future traffic.To solve the aforementioned problems,this paper introduces split learning to design a structured distributed learning framework.The framework comprises a Global-level Spatial structure mining Model(GSM)and several Nodelevel Generative Models(NGMs).NGM and GSM represent Seq2Seq models deployed on the base station and graph neural network models deployed on the cloud or central controller.Firstly,the time embedding layer in NGM establishes the mapping relationship between irregular traffic data and regular latent temporal feature variables.Secondly,GSM collects statistical feature parameters of latent temporal feature variables from various nodes and executes graph embedding for spatial-temporal traffic data.Finally,NGM generates future traffic based on latent temporal and spatial feature variables.The introduction of the time attention mechanism enhances the framework’s capability to handle irregular traffic data.Graph attention network introduces spatially correlated base station traffic feature information into local traffic prediction,which compensates for missing information in local irregular traffic data.The proposed framework effectively addresses the distributed prediction issues of irregular traffic data.By testing on real world datasets,the proposed framework improves traffic prediction accuracy by 35%compared to other commonly used distributed traffic prediction methods.
文摘Accurate traffic flow prediction(TFP)is vital for efficient and sustainable transportation management and the development of intelligent traffic systems.However,missing data in real-world traffic datasets poses a significant challenge to maintaining prediction precision.This study introduces REPTF-TMDI,a novel method that combines a Reduced Error Pruning Tree Forest(REPTree Forest)with a newly proposed Time-based Missing Data Imputation(TMDI)approach.The REP Tree Forest,an ensemble learning approach,is tailored for time-related traffic data to enhance predictive accuracy and support the evolution of sustainable urbanmobility solutions.Meanwhile,the TMDI approach exploits temporal patterns to estimate missing values reliably whenever empty fields are encountered.The proposed method was evaluated using hourly traffic flow data from a major U.S.roadway spanning 2012-2018,incorporating temporal features(e.g.,hour,day,month,year,weekday),holiday indicator,and weather conditions(temperature,rain,snow,and cloud coverage).Experimental results demonstrated that the REPTF-TMDI method outperformed conventional imputation techniques across various missing data ratios by achieving an average 11.76%improvement in terms of correlation coefficient(R).Furthermore,REPTree Forest achieved improvements of 68.62%in RMSE and 70.52%in MAE compared to existing state-of-the-art models.These findings highlight the method’s ability to significantly boost traffic flow prediction accuracy,even in the presence of missing data,thereby contributing to the broader objectives of sustainable urban transportation systems.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter proposes a dynamic switching soft slicing strategy for industrial mixed traffic in 5G networks.

文摘The proliferation of internet traffic encryption has become a double-edged sword. While it significantly enhances user privacy, it also inadvertently shields cyber-attacks from detection, presenting a formidable challenge to cybersecurity. Traditional machine learning and deep learning techniques often fall short in identifying encrypted malicious traffic due to their inability to fully extract and utilize the implicit relational and positional information embedded within data packets. This limitation has led to an unresolved challenge in the cybersecurity community: how to effectively extract valuable insights from the complex patterns of traffic packet transmission. Consequently, this paper introduces the TB-Graph model, an encrypted malicious traffic classification model based on a relational graph attention network. The model is a heterogeneous traffic burst graph that embeds side-channel features, which are unaffected by encryption, into the graph nodes and connects them with three different types of burst edges. Subsequently, we design a relational positional coding that prevents the loss of temporal relationships between the original traffic flows during graph transformation. Ultimately, TB-Graph leverages the powerful graph representation learning capabilities of Relational Graph Attention Network (RGAT) to extract latent behavioral features from the burst graph nodes and edge relationships. Experimental results show that TB-Graph outperforms various state-of-the-art methods in fine-grained encrypted malicious traffic classification tasks on two public datasets, indicating its enhanced capability for identifying encrypted malicious traffic.

文摘Accurate traffic flow prediction has a profound impact on modern traffic management. Traffic flow has complex spatial-temporal correlations and periodicity, which poses difficulties for precise prediction. To address this problem, a Multi-head Self-attention and Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network (MSSTGCN) for multiscale traffic flow prediction is proposed. Firstly, to capture the hidden traffic periodicity of traffic flow, traffic flow is divided into three kinds of periods, including hourly, daily, and weekly data. Secondly, a graph attention residual layer is constructed to learn the global spatial features across regions. Local spatial-temporal dependence is captured by using a T-GCN module. Thirdly, a transformer layer is introduced to learn the long-term dependence in time. A position embedding mechanism is introduced to label position information for all traffic sequences. Thus, this multi-head self-attention mechanism can recognize the sequence order and allocate weights for different time nodes. Experimental results on four real-world datasets show that the MSSTGCN performs better than the baseline methods and can be successfully adapted to traffic prediction tasks.

文摘Convolutional neural networks(CNNs)exhibit superior performance in image feature extraction,making them extensively used in the area of traffic sign recognition.However,the design of existing traffic sign recognition algorithms often relies on expert knowledge to enhance the image feature extraction networks,necessitating image preprocessing and model parameter tuning.This increases the complexity of the model design process.This study introduces an evolutionary neural architecture search(ENAS)algorithm for the automatic design of neural network models tailored for traffic sign recognition.By integrating the construction parameters of residual network(ResNet)into evolutionary algorithms(EAs),we automatically generate lightweight networks for traffic sign recognition,utilizing blocks as the fundamental building units.Experimental evaluations on the German traffic sign recognition benchmark(GTSRB)dataset reveal that the algorithm attains a recognition accuracy of 99.32%,with a mere 2.8×10^(6)parameters.Experimental results comparing the proposed method with other traffic sign recognition algorithms demonstrate that the method can more efficiently discover neural network architectures,significantly reducing the number of network parameters while maintaining recognition accuracy.
