Research on the Problem of Yellow Light Dilemma Modeling Based on Cellular Automata

Abstract

In order to ease the pressure caused by the yellow light dilemma problem and improve the intersection traffic capacity, this paper introduces an innovation concept of ``generalized yellow light dilemma problem{''} and classify the factors pertaining to the problem based on Wuli-Shili-Renli System Approach. According the classification, this paper develops a CA multi-levels model. An intersection simulation platform is also developed to research the dilemma problem. Based on the simulation, it can assist practitioners in the design of road infrastructures and revise the traffic rules from the view of traffic lawman, and the drivers. It aims to improve the traffic safety, through reducing the conflict between the traffic environment, traffic law and traffic management.
