Agent-based modeling is an approach based on the idea that a system is composed of decentralized individual agents and that each agent interacts with other agents according to localized knowledge. Special kinds of artificial agents are the agents created by analogy with social insects. Social insects (bees, wasps, ants, and termites) have lived on Earth for millions of years. Their behavior is primarily characterized by autonomy, distributed functioning, and self-organizing capacities. Social insect colonies teach us that very simple organisms can form systems capable of performing highly complex tasks by dynamically interacting with each other. Swarm intelligence is the branch of artificial intelligence based on study of behavior of individuals in various decentralized systems. The paper presents a classification and analysis of the results achieved using swarm intelligence (SI) to model complex traffic and transportation processes. The primary goal of this paper is to acquaint readers with the basic principles of Swarm Intelligence, as well as to indicate potential swarm intelligence applications in traffic and transportation.

3-Strategy evolutionary game model for operation extensions of subway networks
Yue Zhao, Liujiang Kang, Huijun Sun, Jianjun Wu, Nsabimana Buhigiro
Summary: This study proposes a 2-population 3-strategy evolutionary game model to address the issue of subway network operation extension. The analysis reveals that the rule of maximum total fitness ensures the priority of evolutionary equilibrium strategies, and proper adjustment minutes can enhance the effectiveness of operation extension.

Integrated optimization of container allocation and yard cranes dispatched under delayed transshipment
Hongtao Hu, Jiao Mob, Lu Zhen
Summary: This study investigates the challenges of daily storage yard management in marine container terminals considering delayed transshipment of containers. A mixed-integer linear programming model is proposed to minimize various costs associated with transportation and yard management. The improved Benders decomposition algorithm is applied to solve the problem effectively and efficiently.

Range-constrained traffic assignment for electric vehicles under heterogeneous range anxiety
Zhandong Xu, Yiyang Peng, Guoyuan Li, Anthony Chen, Xiaobo Liu
Summary: This paper studied the impact of range anxiety among electric vehicle drivers on traffic assignment. Two types of range-constrained traffic assignment problems were defined based on discrete or continuous distributed range anxiety. Models and algorithms were proposed to solve the two types of problems. Experimental results showed the superiority of the proposed algorithm and revealed that drivers with heightened range anxiety may cause severe congestion.

Demand forecasting and predictability identification of ride-sourcing via bidirectional spatial-temporal transformer neural processes
Chuanjia Li, Maosi Geng, Yong Chen, Zeen Cai, Zheng Zhu, Xiqun (Michael) Chen
Summary: Understanding spatial-temporal stochasticity in shared mobility is crucial, and this study introduces the Bi-STTNP prediction model that provides probabilistic predictions and uncertainty estimations for ride-sourcing demand, outperforming conventional deep learning methods. The model captures the multivariate spatial-temporal Gaussian distribution of demand and offers comprehensive uncertainty representations.

Partial trajectory method to align and validate successive video cameras for vehicle tracking
Benjamin Coifman, Lizhe Li
Summary: This paper develops a partial trajectory method for aligning views from successive fixed cameras in order to ensure high fidelity with the actual vehicle movements. The method operates on the output of vehicle tracking to provide direct feedback and improve alignment quality. Experimental results show that this method can enhance accuracy and increase the number of vehicles in the dataset.

Dynamic routing for the Electric Vehicle Shortest Path Problem with charging station occupancy information
Mohsen Dastpak, Fausto Errico, Ola Jabali, Federico Malucelli
Summary: This article discusses the problem of an Electric Vehicle (EV) finding the shortest route from an origin to a destination and proposes a problem model that considers the occupancy indicator information of charging stations. A Markov Decision Process formulation is presented to optimize the EV routing and charging policy. A reoptimization algorithm is developed to establish the sequence of charging station visits and charging amounts based on system updates. Results from a comprehensive computational study show that the proposed method significantly reduces waiting times and total trip duration.
