Keynote Session 1 — Hai Yang 

Title: Smart Mobil­i­ty Man­age­ment in the Era of Smart Trans­porta­tion
Speak­er: Hai Yang
Abstract: The cur­rent rev­o­lu­tions of shar­ing, automa­tion and elec­tri­fi­ca­tion are reshap­ing the way we trav­el, with broad impli­ca­tions for future mobil­i­ty man­age­ment. While much uncer­tain­ty remains about how these dis­rup­tive tech­nolo­gies would exact­ly impact demand for future mobil­i­ty and enhance­ment of trans­porta­tion sup­ply, it is clear that Inno­v­a­tive demand man­age­ment is equal­ly impor­tant as smart sup­ply tech­nol­o­gy devel­op­ment in solv­ing wors­en­ing traf­fic prob­lems in big cities. In this talk, I will dis­cuss the oppor­tu­ni­ties and chal­lenges of smart mobil­i­ty man­age­ment in the era of smart trans­porta­tion. Inno­v­a­tive ways of trav­el demand man­age­ment are described, includ­ing trad­able trav­el cred­it scheme for road con­ges­tion mit­i­ga­tion, rev­enue-pre­serv­ing and Pare­to-improv­ing strate­gies for peak-hour tran­sit demand man­age­ment con­ges­tion, and a nov­el reward scheme inte­grat­ed with surge pric­ing in a ride-sourc­ing market.

Keynote Session 2 — Hani Mahmassani 

Title: Oper­a­tional Strate­gies for Urban Air Mobil­i­ty and 4D Sys­tem Fun­da­men­tal Dia­grams
Speak­er: Hani Mah­mas­sani
Abstract: We take urban mobil­i­ty to the next lev­el by con­sid­er­ing shared mobil­i­ty ser­vices offered through auto­mat­ed elec­tric ver­ti­cal take-off and land­ing (eVTOL) vehi­cles (“fly­ing taxis”), enabled by new gen­er­a­tion of eVTOL air­craft. We present var­i­ous con­cepts for ser­vice oper­a­tions at urban/regional lev­els, along with algo­rithms adapt­ed for the real-time oper­a­tion of shared air mobil­i­ty fleets. We also exam­ine the con­gesta­bil­i­ty of urban air space through a micro­scop­ic sim­u­la­tion and illus­trate the emer­gence of sys­tem fun­da­men­tal dia­gram (for prop­er­ly defined aver­ages tak­en over four-dimen­sion­al space) com­pa­ra­ble in shape to urban road traf­fic networks.

Keynote Session 3 — Nikolas Geroliminis 

Title: On the Inef­fi­cien­cy and Man­age­ment of Ride-Sourc­ing Ser­vices towards Urban Con­ges­tion
Speak­er: Niko­las Geroli­m­in­is
Abstract: Human mobil­i­ty in con­gest­ed city cen­ters is a com­plex dynam­i­cal sys­tem with high den­si­ty of pop­u­la­tion, many trans­port modes to com­pete for lim­it­ed avail­able space and many oper­a­tors that try to effi­cient­ly man­age dif­fer­ent parts of this sys­tem. New emerg­ing modes of trans­porta­tion, such as ride-hail­ing and on-demand ser­vices cre­ate addi­tion­al oppor­tu­ni­ties, but also more com­plex­i­ty. Lit­tle is known about to what degree its oper­a­tions can inter­fere in traf­fic con­di­tions, while replac­ing oth­er trans­porta­tion modes, or when a large num­ber of idle vehi­cles is cruis­ing for pas­sen­gers. We exper­i­men­tal­ly ana­lyze the effi­cien­cy of TNCs using taxi trip data from a Chi­nese megac­i­ty and an agent-based sim­u­la­tion with a trip-based MFD mod­el for deter­min­ing the speed. We inves­ti­gate the effect of expand­ing fleet sizes for TNCs, pas­sen­gers’ incli­na­tion towards shar­ing rides, and strate­gies to alle­vi­ate urban con­ges­tion. We observe that, although a larg­er fleet size reduces wait­ing time, it also inten­si­fies con­ges­tion, which, in turn, pro­longs the total trav­el time. Such con­ges­tion effect is so sig­nif­i­cant that it is near­ly insen­si­tive to pas­sen­gers’ will­ing­ness to share and flex­i­ble sup­ply. Final­ly, park­ing man­age­ment strate­gies can pre­vent idle vehi­cles from cruis­ing with­out assigned pas­sen­gers, mit­i­gat­ing the neg­a­tive impacts of ride-sourc­ing over con­ges­tion, and improv­ing the ser­vice qual­i­ty. We are also devel­op­ing dif­fer­ent type of con­trol strate­gies, such as relo­ca­tion of emp­ty vehi­cles, park­ing man­age­ment and pric­ing incen­tives to alle­vi­ate the neg­a­tive effects.

Keynote Session 4 — Alexandre Bayen 

Title: Lagrangian Con­trol at Large and Local Scales in Mixed Auton­o­my Traf­fic Flow
Speak­er: Alexan­dre Bayen
Abstract: This talk inves­ti­gates Lagrangian (mobile) con­trol of traf­fic flow at local scale (vehic­u­lar lev­el). The ques­tion of how self-dri­ving vehi­cles will change traf­fic flow pat­terns is inves­ti­gat­ed. We describe approach­es based on deep rein­force­ment learn­ing pre­sent­ed in the con­text of enabling mixed-auton­o­my mobil­i­ty. The talk explores the grad­ual and com­plex inte­gra­tion of auto­mat­ed vehi­cles into the exist­ing traf­fic sys­tem. We present the poten­tial impact of a small frac­tion of auto­mat­ed vehi­cles on low-lev­el traf­fic flow dynam­ics, using nov­el tech­niques in mod­el-free deep rein­force­ment learn­ing, in which the auto­mat­ed vehi­cles act as mobile (Lagrangian) con­trollers to traf­fic flow. Illus­tra­tive exam­ples will be pre­sent­ed in the con­text of a new open-source com­pu­ta­tion­al plat­form called FLOW, which inte­grates state of the art microsim­u­la­tion tools with deep-RL libraries on AWS EC2. Inter­est­ing behav­ior of mixed auton­o­my traf­fic will be revealed in the con­text of emer­gent behav­ior of traf­fic: https://flow-project.github.io/

Title: Intel­li­gent Dri­ving Intel­li­gence Test for Autonomous Vehi­cles with Nat­u­ral­is­tic and Adver­sar­i­al Dri­ving Envi­ron­ment
Speak­er: Hen­ry Liu
Abstract: Dri­ving intel­li­gence tests are crit­i­cal to the devel­op­ment and deploy­ment of autonomous vehi­cles. The pre­vail­ing approach tests autonomous vehi­cles in life-like sim­u­la­tions of the nat­u­ral­is­tic dri­ving envi­ron­ment. How­ev­er, due to the high dimen­sion­al­i­ty of the envi­ron­ment and the rareness of safe­ty-crit­i­cal events, hun­dreds of mil­lions of miles would be required to demon­strate the safe­ty per­for­mance of autonomous vehi­cles, which is severe­ly inef­fi­cient. We dis­cov­er that sparse but adver­sar­i­al adjust­ments to the nat­u­ral­is­tic dri­ving envi­ron­ment, result­ing in the nat­u­ral­is­tic and adver­sar­i­al dri­ving envi­ron­ment, can sig­nif­i­cant­ly reduce the required test miles with­out loss of eval­u­a­tion unbi­ased­ness. By train­ing the back­ground vehi­cles to learn when to exe­cute what adver­sar­i­al maneu­ver, the pro­posed envi­ron­ment becomes an intel­li­gent envi­ron­ment for dri­ving intel­li­gence test­ing. We demon­strate the effec­tive­ness of the pro­posed envi­ron­ment in a high­way-dri­ving sim­u­la­tion. Com­par­ing with the nat­u­ral­is­tic dri­ving envi­ron­ment, the pro­posed envi­ron­ment can accel­er­ate the eval­u­a­tion process by mul­ti­ple orders of magnitude.
