But the classification performance on the minority classes with a few bytes is still unhopeful because the existing research only focuses on the classes with a large amount of bytes. Therefore, the class-dependent misclassification cost is studied. Firstly, the flow rate based cost matrix （FCM） is investigated. Secondly, a new cost matrix named weighted cost matrix （WCM） is proposed, which calculates a reasonable weight for each cost of FCM by regarding the data imbalance degree and classification accuracy of each class. It is able to further improve the classification performance on the difficult minority class （the class with more flows but worse classification accuracy）. Experimental results on twelve real traffic datasets show that FCM and WCM obtain more than 92% flow g-mean and 80% byte g-mean on average; on the test set collected one year later, WCM outperforms FCM in terms of stability.展开更多

As an improvement to the previous work, the presented approach has the following five features： 1） modeling traffic flow to analyze traffic characteristics under the influence of variable speed limit, on-ramp metering and guidance information; 2） building a hierarchy model to realize the integration design of traffic control and route guidance in traffic corridors; 3） devising a multi-class analytical dynamic traffic assignment （DTA） model for traffic corridors, where not only the route choice process will be different for each user-class, but also the traffic flow operations are user-class specific because the travel time characteristic for each user-class is considered; 4） predicting route choice probabilities adaptively with real-time traffic conditions and route choice behaviors corresponding to variant users, rather than assuming as pre-determined; and 5） suggesting a numerical solution algorithm of the hierarchy model presented in this paper based on the modified algorithm of iterative optimization assignment （IOA）. Preliminary numerical test demonstrates the potential of the developed model and algorithm for integration corridor control.展开更多
