Traffic flow modeling on road networks using Hamilton-Jacobi equationsGuillaume Costeseque
This document discusses traffic flow modeling using Hamilton-Jacobi equations on road networks. It motivates the use of macroscopic traffic models based on conservation laws and Hamilton-Jacobi equations to describe traffic flow. These models can capture traffic behavior at a aggregate level based on density, flow and speed. The document outlines different orders of macroscopic traffic models, from first order Lighthill-Whitham-Richards models to higher order models that account for additional traffic attributes. It also discusses the relationship between microscopic car-following models and the emergence of macroscopic behavior through homogenization.
The document discusses second order traffic flow models on networks. It begins with an introduction to traffic modeling, including macroscopic representations of traffic flow using density, flow, and speed. First order models like Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) are introduced, as well as higher order Generic Second Order Models (GSOM) that can account for driver behavior and vehicle interactions. The document then discusses applying a variational principle and Hamilton-Jacobi formulation to both LWR and GSOM models, allowing them to be analyzed using tools from optimal control and viability theory.
The document discusses second-order traffic flow models on networks. It provides motivation for higher-order models by noting limitations of first-order models like LWR in capturing phenomena observed in real traffic flows. It introduces the Generic Second-Order Model (GSOM) family, which incorporates an additional driver attribute variable beyond density to obtain more accurate descriptions of traffic. GSOM reduces to LWR when this additional variable is ignored. Several examples of GSOM models are also presented.

The document describes a numerical approach for solving Hamilton-Jacobi equations on networks and its application to modeling traffic flow. It presents a Hamilton-Jacobi model for traffic flow on a network that views the network as a graph with edges and vertices. A numerical scheme is developed that discretizes the Hamilton-Jacobi equations in space and time and couples them at junction points using a maximum principle. Theoretical results proving gradient bounds, existence and uniqueness of solutions, and convergence of the numerical solution are also presented.
Hamilton-Jacobi approach for second order traffic flow modelsGuillaume Costeseque
This document summarizes a presentation on using a Hamilton-Jacobi approach for second order traffic flow models. It begins with an introduction to traffic modeling, discussing both Eulerian and Lagrangian representations of traffic. It then discusses using a variational principle to apply to generic second order traffic flow models (GSOM), which account for additional driver attributes beyond just density. Specifically, it discusses formulating GSOM models in Lagrangian coordinates using a Hamilton-Jacobi framework. The document outlines solving the HJ PDE using characteristics, and decomposing problems into elementary blocks defined by piecewise affine initial, upstream and internal boundary conditions.
This talk will report briey on some findings from the problem of picking the weights for a weighted function space in QMC. Then it will be mostly about importance sampling. We want to estimate the probability _ of a union of J rare events. The method uses n samples, each of which picks one of the rare events at random, samples conditionally on that rare event happening and counts the total number of rare events that happen. It was used by Naiman and Priebe for scan
statistics, Shi, Siegmund and Yakir for genomic scans and Adler, Blanchet and Liu for extrema of Gaussian processes. We call it ALOE, for `at least one event'. The ALOE estimate is unbiased and we find that it has a coefficient of variation no larger than p (J + J�1 � 2)=(4n). The coefficient of variation is also no larger than p (__=_ � 1)=n where __ is the union bound. Our motivating problem comes from power system reliability, where the phase differences between connected nodes have a joint Gaussian distribution and the J rare events arise from unacceptably large phase differences. In the grid reliability problems even some events defined by 5772
constraints in 326 dimensions, with probability below 10�22, are estimated with a coefficient of variation of about 0:0024 with only n = 10;000 sample values. In a genomic context, the rare events become false discoveries. There we are interested in the possibility of a large number of simultaneous events, not just one or more. Some work with Kenneth Tay will be presented on that problem.

The document discusses Hamilton-Jacobi equations on networks to model flows such as traffic. It presents an initial framework developed by Imbert-Monneau from 2010-2014 that models flows on a network as a single Hamilton-Jacobi equation with implicit junction conditions. This approach has good mathematical properties but lacks an explicit solution and does not model traffic flows satisfactorily. The document then outlines improvements to the approach including introducing time and space dependencies to better model traffic flows.
RuleML2015: Learning Characteristic Rules in Geographic Information SystemsRuleML
We provide a general framework for learning characterization
rules of a set of objects in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) relying
on the definition of distance quantified paths. Such expressions specify
how to navigate between the different layers of the GIS starting from
the target set of objects to characterize. We have defined a generality
relation between quantified paths and proved that it is monotonous with
respect to the notion of coverage, thus allowing to develop an interactive
and effective algorithm to explore the search space of possible rules. We
describe GISMiner, an interactive system that we have developed based
on our framework. Finally, we present our experimental results from a
real GIS about mineral exploration.

Supervised Planetary Unmixing with Optimal TransportSina Nakhostin
This document presents a supervised planetary unmixing method using optimal transport. It introduces using the Wasserstein distance as a metric for comparing spectral signatures, which is defined over probability distributions and can account for shifts in frequency. The method formulates unmixing as an optimization problem that matches spectra to a dictionary using the Wasserstein distance, while also incorporating an abundance prior. Preliminary experiments on Vesta asteroid data show the abundance maps produced with this optimal transport approach.
Elementary Landscape Decomposition of the Hamiltonian Path Optimization Problemjfrchicanog
The document describes research on decomposing optimization problem landscapes into elementary components. It defines key landscape concepts like configuration space, neighborhood operators, and objective functions. It then introduces the idea of elementary landscapes where the objective function is a linear combination of eigenfunctions. The paper discusses decomposing general landscapes into a sum of elementary components and proposes using average neighborhood fitness for selection in non-elementary landscapes. It applies these concepts to the Hamiltonian Path Optimization problem, analyzing the problem's reversals and swaps neighborhoods.
This document summarizes results on analyzing stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithms for minimizing convex functions. It shows that a continuous-time version of SGD (SGD-c) can strongly approximate the discrete-time version (SGD-d) under certain conditions. It also establishes that SGD achieves the minimax optimal convergence rate of O(t^-1/2) for α=1/2 by using an "averaging from the past" procedure, closing the gap between previous lower and upper bound results.

It then reviews an existing encoding by Fournet and Gonthier, and Gorla's criteria for a good encoding in terms of compositionality, name invariance, and operational correspondence. The goal is to define a new encoding of πa into the join-calculus that satisfies Gorla's criteria for being a good encoding.
This document discusses macrocanonical models for texture synthesis. It begins by introducing the goal of texture synthesis and providing a brief history. It then describes the parametric question of combining randomness and structure in images. Specifically, it discusses maximizing entropy under geometric constraints. The document goes on to discuss links to statistical physics, defining microcanonical and macrocanonical models. It focuses on studying the macrocanonical model, describing how to find optimal parameters through gradient descent and how to sample from the model using Langevin dynamics. The document provides examples of texture synthesis and compares results to other methods.
This document discusses queue length estimation on urban corridors using an optimization-based framework that accounts for bounded vehicle acceleration. The approach formulates the problem as a mixed integer linear program (MILP) that finds traffic conditions satisfying macroscopic flow models and sparse GPS data constraints. Optimal solutions are used to compute traffic states and deduce queue lengths over time by identifying regions where density is near the jam density. Model constraints enforce compatibility between initial, boundary, and internal traffic conditions.
Likelihood-free methods provide techniques for approximating Bayesian computations when the likelihood function is unavailable or computationally intractable. Monte Carlo methods like importance sampling and iterated importance sampling generate samples from an approximating distribution to estimate integrals. Population Monte Carlo is an iterative Monte Carlo algorithm that propagates a population of particles over time to explore the target distribution. Approximate Bayesian computation uses simulation-based methods to approximate posterior distributions when the likelihood is unavailable.
The document discusses computational methods for Bayesian statistics when direct simulation from the target distribution is not possible or efficient. It introduces Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, including the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm and Gibbs sampler, which generate dependent samples that approximate the target distribution. The Metropolis-Hastings algorithm uses a proposal distribution to randomly walk through the parameter space. Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is also introduced as a method that approximates the posterior distribution when the likelihood is intractable.
Sparse-Bayesian Approach to Inverse Problems with Partial Differential Equati...DrSebastianEngel
This document summarizes topics related to sparse-Bayesian approaches for inverse problems involving partial differential equations. Specifically, it discusses Bayesian inversion for identifying sound sources using the Helmholtz equation and optimal control/inversion for the wave equation with functions of bounded variation in time. The document provides motivation for Bayesian inversion to deal with inherent errors in models and data. It introduces the Bayesian framework for inverse problems, including prior distributions, likelihoods, and obtaining the posterior distribution using Bayes' theorem. Finite and infinite dimensional examples are presented using Gaussian priors.
The document discusses building robust machine learning systems that can handle concept drift. It introduces the challenges of concept drift when the underlying data distribution changes over time. It proposes using Gaussian process classifiers with an adaptive training window approach. The approach monitors for concept drift and retrains the model if detected. It tests the approach on artificial data streams with different drift scenarios and finds the adaptive approach performs better than a static model at handling concept drift. Future work could explore other drift detection methods and ensembles of adaptive Gaussian process classifiers.
After we applied the stochastic Galerkin method to solve stochastic PDE, and solve large linear system, we obtain stochastic solution (random field), which is represented in Karhunen Loeve and PCE basis. No sampling error is involved, only algebraic truncation error. Now we would like to escape classical MCMC path to compute the posterior. We develop an Bayesian* update formula for KLE-PCE coefficients.
Sampling Spectrahedra: Volume Approximation and OptimizationApostolos Chalkis
This document discusses methods for sampling and optimization within spectrahedra. Spectrahedra are the feasible sets of semidefinite programs and arise in applications like control theory and statistics. The document presents random walk algorithms like billiard walk and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo that can be used to sample from spectrahedra. It also discusses how exponential sampling via simulated annealing can be applied to optimize linear functions over spectrahedra.
Motivated by a real-world financial dataset, we propose a distributed variational message passing scheme for learning conjugate exponential models. We show that the method can be seen as a projected natural gradient ascent algorithm, and it therefore has good convergence properties. This is supported experimentally, where we show that the approach is robust wrt. common problems like imbalanced data, heavy-tailed empirical distributions, and a high degree of missing values. The scheme is based on map-reduce operations, and utilizes the memory management of modern big data frameworks like Apache Flink to obtain a time-efficient and scalable implementation. The proposed algorithm compares favourably to stochastic variational inference both in terms of speed and quality of the learned models. For the scalability analysis, we evaluate our approach over a network with more than one billion nodes (and approx. 75% latent variables) using a computer cluster with 128 processing units.

Hamilton-Jacobi equations and Lax-Hopf formulae for traffic flow modelingGuillaume Costeseque
The document discusses using Hamilton-Jacobi equations and Lax-Hopf formulas to model traffic flow. It introduces the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards traffic model in both Eulerian and Lagrangian coordinates. In the Eulerian framework, the cumulative vehicle count satisfies a Hamilton-Jacobi equation, and Lax-Hopf formulas provide representations involving minimizing cost along trajectories. Similarly in the Lagrangian framework, vehicle position satisfies a Hamilton-Jacobi equation, and Lax-Hopf formulas involve minimizing cost along characteristic curves. The document outlines applying variational principles and optimal control interpretations to these traffic models.
Using data from the S&P 500 stocks from 1990 to 2015, we address the uncertainty of distribution of assets’ returns in Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) minimization model by applying multidimensional mixed Archimedean copula function and obtaining its robust counterpart. We implement a dynamic investing viable strategy where the portfolios are optimized using three different length of rolling calibration windows. The out-of-sample performance is evaluated and compared against two benchmarks: a multidimensional Gaussian copula model and a constant mix portfolio. Our empirical analysis shows that the Mixed Copula-CVaR approach generates portfolios with better downside risk statistics for any rebalancing period and it is more profitable than the Gaussian Copula-CVaR and the 1/N portfolios for daily and weekly rebalancing. To cope with the dimensionality problem we select a set of assets that are the most diversified, in some sense, to the S&P 500 index in the constituent set. The accuracy of the VaR forecasts is determined by how well they minimize a capital requirement loss function. In order to mitigate data-snooping problems, we apply a test for superior predictive ability to determine which model significantly minimizes this expected loss function. We find that the minimum average loss of the mixed Copula-CVaR approach is smaller than the average performance of the Gaussian Copula-CVaR.
This document discusses second order traffic flow models on networks. It provides motivation for higher order models by noting limitations of first order models like the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model. It introduces the Generic Second Order Model (GSOM) family which incorporates additional driver attributes beyond just density. GSOM models are presented in both Eulerian and Lagrangian coordinates. The variational principle and Hamilton-Jacobi formulation are discussed for applying dynamic programming and minimum principles to these models.

1) Users follow strategies that assign preference orders to outgoing arcs from each node based on arrival time and congestion.
2) A time-space network is constructed to model flow variations over time on the original road network.
3) An equilibrium is achieved when expected delays are minimal for each origin-destination pair given the strategies and capacities.
The document summarizes a presentation on using Hamilton-Jacobi equations to model traffic flow, specifically the moving bottleneck problem. It introduces traffic flow models including Lighthill-Whitham-Richards and extensions to mesoscopic and multiclass multilane models. It describes the moving bottleneck theory for modeling a slower vehicle generating queues. The talk outlines formulating the problem using partial differential equations coupling traffic flow with the moving bottleneck trajectory and discusses numerical methods for solving the equations.

Propagation of uncertainties in complex engineering dynamical systems is receiving increasing attention. When uncertainties are taken into account, the equations of motion of discretised dynamical systems can be expressed by coupled ordinary differential equations with stochastic coefficients. The computational cost for the solution of such a system mainly depends on the number of degrees of freedom and number of random variables. Among various numerical methods developed for such systems, the polynomial chaos based Galerkin projection approach shows significant promise because it is more accurate compared to the classical perturbation based methods and computationally more efficient compared to the Monte Carlo simulation based methods. However, the computational cost increases significantly with the number of random variables and the results tend to become less accurate for a longer length of time. In this talk novel approaches will be discussed to address these issues. Reduced-order Galerkin projection schemes in the frequency domain will be discussed to address the problem of a large number of random variables. Practical examples will be given to illustrate the application of the proposed Galerkin projection techniques.
Mesoscopic multiclass traffic flow modeling on multi-lane sectionsGuillaume Costeseque
This document presents a mesoscopic multiclass traffic flow model for multi-lane highway sections. It formulates the model using a system of coupled Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equations to represent different vehicle classes. The model accounts for non-FIFO behavior and capacity drop at lane changes using a parameter. It is solved numerically using a Lax-Hopf scheme, with coupling conditions to represent interactions between classes.
Road junction modeling using a scheme based on Hamilton-Jacobi equationsGuillaume Costeseque
The document summarizes a numerical scheme for modeling traffic flow at road junctions using Hamilton-Jacobi equations. The scheme models traffic on each branch of the junction as well as at the junction point where branches meet. It introduces Hamiltonians representing traffic flow and establishes gradient estimates and existence/uniqueness results for the numerical solution. The scheme is shown to converge to the unique viscosity solution of the underlying partial differential equations as the grid is refined.
The document reviews optimal speed traffic flow models. It discusses macroscopic and microscopic models, with a focus on car-following models and the optimal velocity model (OVM). The OVM describes how each vehicle tries to travel at an optimal speed based on the distance to the preceding vehicle. Several improved models are presented, including the comprehensive optimal velocity model which considers both distance and speed difference, and the optimal velocity forecast model which incorporates anticipated speed changes. While the models reviewed consider single-lane traffic, the conclusion recommends including non-car vehicles and driver behaviors more common to Nigeria for greater applicability.
Sequential and parallel algorithm to find maximum flow on extended mixed netw...csandit
The problem of finding maximum flow in network
graph is extremely interesting and
practically applicable in many fields in our daily
life, especially in transportation. Therefore, a
lot of researchers have been studying this problem
in various methods. Especially in 2013, we
has developed a new algorithm namely, postflow-pull
algorithm to find the maximum flow on
traditional networks. In this paper, we revi
sed postflow-push methods to solve this
problem of finding maximum flow on extended mixed
network. In addition, to take more
advantage of multi-core architecture of t
he parallel computing system, we build this
parallel algorithm. This is a completely new method
not being announced in the world. The
results of this paper are basically systematized an
d proven. The idea of this algorithm is using
multi processors to work in parallel by postflow_p
ush algorithm. Among these processors,
there is one main processor managing data, sending
data to the sub processors, receiving data
from the sub-processors. The sub-processors simulta
neously execute their work and send their
data to the main processor until the job is finishe

SEQUENTIAL AND PARALLEL ALGORITHM TO FIND MAXIMUM FLOW ON EXTENDED MIXED NETW...cscpconf
This document summarizes an algorithm for finding maximum flow on extended mixed networks using revised postflow-push methods and parallel processing. The key points are:
1. The authors revise postflow-push methods to solve the maximum flow problem on extended mixed networks, which model problems more accurately than traditional networks.
2. To take advantage of parallel computing, the authors develop a parallel algorithm where multiple processors work simultaneously using postflow-push until the problem is solved.
3. The algorithm balances inflow and outflow at vertices by pushing flow along outgoing edges and against incoming edges in the residual network until no unbalanced vertices remain.
Intersection modeling using a convergent scheme based on Hamilton-Jacobi equa...Guillaume Costeseque
The document presents an intersection modeling approach using a Hamilton-Jacobi equation. It proposes modeling traffic flow at intersections as the maximization of total flow, without internal states. A numerical scheme is presented to solve the HJ equation based on conservation of vehicles and FIFO principles. Numerical simulations are shown for a diverging intersection with one incoming and two outgoing roads, demonstrating the propagation of density waves over time.
We provide a comprehensive convergence analysis of the asymptotic preserving implicit-explicit particle-in-cell (IMEX-PIC) methods for the Vlasov–Poisson system with a strong magnetic field. This study is of utmost importance for understanding the behavior of plasmas in magnetic fusion devices such as tokamaks, where such a large magnetic field needs to be applied in order to keep the plasma particles on desired tracks.
A Review Of Major Paradigms And Models For The Design Of Civil Engineering Sy...Tracy Morgan
The document discusses the evolution of paradigms for designing civil engineering systems. It identifies five classical paradigms (A through E) and proposes a new emerging paradigm (F):
1. The empirical model (Paradigm A), static descriptive deterministic method (Paradigm B), static stochastic descriptive model (Paradigm C), and dynamic stochastic descriptive model (Paradigm D) describe previous approaches.
2. The new proposed paradigm is the interactive multi-attribute learning paradigm (Paradigm F), which involves identifying actors, modeling structures, and using tools to generate alternatives, simulate responses, communicate features, and assess reactions and preferences in an interactive learning process.

Cambridge 2014 Complexity, tails and trendsNick Watkins
This document discusses two types of complexity that can affect trend detection in time series data: long range dependence and heavy tails.
Long range dependence, if present in a system, implies the presence of low frequency "slow" fluctuations that can complicate trend detection. Heavy tails in a probability distribution are a source of "wild" fluctuations due to more frequent extreme events.
The document reviews several examples of long range dependence and heavy tails observed in real-world datasets like financial data and space weather data. Statistical models like linear fractional stable motion (LFSM) and autoregressive fractionally integrated moving average (ARFIMA) processes are discussed for modeling systems with both properties. Better statistical inference methods are also needed to distinguish true
Blind separation of complex-valued satellite-AIS data for marine surveillance...IJECEIAES
In this paper, the problem of the blind separation of complex-valued Satellite-AIS data for marine surveillance is addressed. Due to the specific properties of the sources under consideration: they are cyclo-stationary signals with two close cyclic frequencies, we opt for spatial quadratic time-frequency domain methods. The use of an additional diversity, the time delay, is aimed at making it possible to undo the mixing of signals at the multi-sensor receiver. The suggested method involves three main stages. First, the spatial generalized mean Ambiguity function of the observations across the array is constructed. Second, in the Ambiguity plane, Delay-Doppler regions of high magnitude are determined and Delay-Doppler points of peaky values are selected. Third, the mixing matrix is estimated from these Delay-Doppler regions using our proposed non-unitary joint zero-(block) diagonalization algorithms as to perform separation.
This document discusses using the sequence of iterates generated by inertial methods to minimize convex functions. It introduces inertial methods and how they can be used to generate sequences that converge to the minimum. While the last iterate is often used, sometimes averaging over iterates or using extrapolations like Aitken acceleration can provide better estimates of the minimum. Inertial methods allow for more exploration of the function space than gradient descent alone. The geometry of the function may provide opportunities to analyze the iterate sequence and obtain improved convergence estimates.

Some recent developments in the traffic flow variational formulationGuillaume Costeseque
This document summarizes recent developments in modeling traffic flow using Hamilton-Jacobi equations. It discusses using Hamilton-Jacobi equations to model cumulative vehicle counts on highways with entrance and exit ramps. Source terms are added to the Hamilton-Jacobi equations to account for the effects of exogenous lateral inflows and outflows of vehicles onto the highway. Analytical solutions are presented for cases with constant inflow rates, and for an extended Riemann problem with piecewise constant boundary and inflow conditions.
The impact of source terms in the variational representation of traffic flowGuillaume Costeseque
This document examines the impact of source terms in the variational representation of traffic flow. It finds that variational theory solutions are valid in Eulerian coordinates for exogenous source terms but not for endogenous source terms that depend on traffic conditions. However, in discrete time steps, endogenous source terms from the previous step become exogenous for the current step, allowing improved numerical solution methods. Specifically, it presents Godunov's method and variational networks methods for solving the kinematic wave and Hamilton-Jacobi models of traffic flow in discrete time steps.
This document discusses dynamic road traffic modeling. It explains that dynamic models are important because they consider time as a factor. Dynamic traffic models can be used for both long-term infrastructure planning and short-term traffic management. They aim to predict departure times, route choices, and how traffic loads networks over time based on traffic flow theory. Dynamic models can take a microscopic approach tracking individual vehicles or a macroscopic approach using averaged quantities. The document also outlines some common uses of dynamic macroscopic models, including estimating the current traffic state, forecasting future states, and optimizing control measures to achieve objectives.
The ORESTE project aims to optimize traffic flow in corridors using ramp metering and optimal rerouting strategies. It is a collaboration between Inria and UC Berkeley. The team has developed macroscopic traffic flow models and an adjoint method to compute gradients for optimal control problems related to ramp metering and rerouting compliant users. Numerical results on test cases show that ramp metering and rerouting can significantly reduce congestion. The team has published several journal and conference papers on their work and is pursuing additional research on junction models and controls based on autonomous vehicles.
DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

Weaker assumptions on the Hamiltonians
For all α = 1, . . . , N,
(A0) The initial condition uα
0 is Lipschitz continuous.
(A1) The Hamiltonians Hα are continuous and quasi-convex i.e.
there exists points pα
0 such that
Hα is non-increasing on (−∞, pα
0 ],
Hα is non-decreasing on [pα
0 , +∞).

Homogenization on a network
Proposition (Homogenization on a periodic network [IM’14])
Assume (A0)-(A1). Consider a periodic network.
If uε satisfies (oscillating) HJ equation on network,
then uε converges uniformly towards u0 when ε → 0,
with u0 solution of
u0

86. Conclusions and perspectives
Perspectives
Open questions:
Micro-macro: higher time delay? Relaxing comparison principle?
Extend the Lax-Hopf algorithm for non-zero dynamics ϕ(I) = 0
Confront the results with real data (NGSIM/MOCoPo datasets)
Data assimilation on junctions?
“Simple” formula for time/space dependent Hamiltonians?
