This paper focuses on designing an adaptive controller for controlling traffic signal timing. Urban traffic is an inevitable part in modern cities and traffic signal controllers are effective tools to control it. In this regard, this paper proposes a distributed neural network (NN) controller for traffic signal timing. This controller applies cuckoo search (CS) optimization methods to find the optimal parameters in design of an adaptive traffic signal timing control system. The evaluation of the performance of the designed controller is done in a multi-intersection traffic network. The developed controller shows a promising improvement in reducing travel delay time compared to traditional fixed-time control systems.
