A New Methodology for Evaluating Incident Detection Algorithms (2000)
Petty, Karl, Bickel, Peter J., Kwon, Jaimyoung, Ostland, Michael, Rice, John
We present a novel, off-line approach for evaluating incident detection algorithms. Previous evaluations have focused on determining the detection rate versus false alarm rate curve -- a process...

An extended macroscopic model for traffic flow
Sanwal, Kumud K., Petty, Karl, Walrand, Jean, Fawaz, Youssef
This paper presents a model of traffic on a highway based on the macroscopic description of traffic as a compressible fluid. We take the computationally efficient model of Papageorgiou and test it on...
