Revealing the day-to-day regularity of urban congestion patterns with 3D speed maps
Abstract In this paper, we investigate the day-to-day regularity of urban congestion patterns. We first partition link speed data every 10 min into 3D clusters that propose a parsimonious sketch of the congestion pulse. We then gather days with similar patterns and use consensus clustering methods t...
