TRAFFIC FLOW OPTIMIZATION BASED ON PERIODIC FUZZY GRAPHS

Abstract

In this paper, one of the most common and significant problems of rapidly developing settlements
is considered - inconsistent regulation of traffic flows using optical controls at several
sections of the intersection of carriageways. This problem is most relevant in settlements with a
prominent level of uncontrolled population growth, using personal vehicles as the main means of
transportation. The relevance of the formed problem is substantiated by a sharp increase in the
number of road users, which entails the risks of traffic accidents, as well as the complication of
logistics design, associated with an increase in the financial costs of transport and logistics companies.
To solve the identified problem, within the framework of the presented work, a brief review
of literary sources is given, which makes it possible to assess the current level of development of
systems for this purpose. As a result of this review, it was found that the most effective methods for
solving the problem posed are the use of fuzzy graph methods. In this regard, it was decided to
conduct a study of these methods, as part of solving the identified problems on the example of road
sections of the city of Taganrog. The use of periodic temporal fuzzy graphs is proposed as the
main approach used in the regulation of traffic. This work is the initial theoretical basis for further
research and allows you to form a holistic view of the features of the above graphs. The novelty of
this work is determined based on the use of periodic temporal fuzzy graphs in the framework of
solving the problem of regulating traffic flows at successive sections of the intersection of carriageways.
