Multi-Agent-Based Data-Driven Distributed Adaptive Cooperative Control in Urban Traffic Signal Timing

Data-driven intelligent transportation systems (D<sup>2</sup>ITSs) have drawn significant attention lately. This work investigates a novel multi-agent-based data-driven distributed adaptive cooperative control (MA-DD-DACC) method for multi-direction queuing strength balance with changeab...
