Funded Activity Summary

Design of micro-decisions in automated transport. This project aims to design methods and market algorithms for vehicle control to tackle traffic congestion with interactive micro-auctions, micro-tolling and cooperative games. Specifically, this project develops and designs incentives, auctions and behavioural and pricing rules to manipulate micro traffic dynamics such as lane-changing, merging, energy-efficient driving, and driving at intersections, in roads without defined lanes and shared spaces to achieve collective macro benefits. The project targets mixed traffic where AVs and conventional human-driven vehicles interact and share the road. The project expects to generate new knowledge of transport science to lessen social, economic and environmental impacts of private cars.
