Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Congestion is an important fact of life in most medium and large size urban areas. Many of North American metropolitan planning organisations and provincial/state governments do not have a good objective appreciation of the state of congestion in their jurisdiction or how it is changing over time. This is happening partly because of the difficulty in measuring congestion and the lack of analytical tools and standard measures that can accurately reflect traffic conditions for a particular corridor or area. The main objective of this paper is to examine freeway flow patterns in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) with a view to producing a method to quantify the state of highway performance and congestion in the area which would help monitor that state over time. After a brief review of literature, and a discussion of the traffic patterns in the GTA, a new simple way to estimate the state of highway network performance is introduced. GTA observations are used for demonstration. (A)

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
