Assemble the network state
Normalize live sensor values, incident reports, road topology, control infrastructure, and historical traffic patterns into a shared operational model.
A prototype component that combines probabilistic congestion forecasts with configurable behaviour logic. It structures network-wide conditions into traceable recommendations for operator review.

Test parameters
Adjust the inputs to recalculate the illustrative forecast.
Test visualization only. Probabilities are generated by a simplified demonstration formula and are not outputs from the trained prototype model.
Why this
A stopped vehicle can affect lane availability, approach speeds, queue formation, adjacent routes, and can lead to a chain reaction of incidents.
Operators have to correlate these dependencies across several systems and apply network-specific procedures. Existing automation remains responsible for local, deterministic control; the prototype investigates how a separate supervisory layer can add predictive context and behaviour-based evaluation.
How it works
The runtime cycle is only one part of the system. Network layout, behaviours, dependencies, and validation rules are defined first and tested against the possible operating states.
Completed by us before the system enters cyclic operation
1 · Network configuration
Define the physical layout, sign locations, distances, topology, operational settings, and the behaviours that determine how the network should respond to an event.
2 · Scenario validation
Generate and evaluate the possible traffic and device scenarios. Invalid, incomplete, or conflicting rule outcomes are flagged for review before the configuration is used operationally.
*The actual number depends on sign distances, topology, behaviour settings, and the permitted state combinations.
Performed only by the customer’s and vendors’ existing systems
3 · Data collection
Before our runtime cycle starts, established third-party systems collect and monitor the available operational data. This monitoring remains outside our system.
Steps 4–8 are performed by us and repeat continuously
Retrieval
Receive data from vendor-specific interfaces and normalize it into a common data model.
Preparation
Prepare the normalized state for the trained prediction model and the behaviour-based network evaluation.
Recommendation creation
Use the forecast either as an input to the recommendation logic or as operator information, depending on configuration.
Application & distribution
Resolve the network-wide measures and return approved decisions to the relevant connected systems.
Audit & trend
Store decisions and actions where required, then use the history for model training and network-specific fine-tuning.
After audit and trend processing, the system returns to step 4 and retrieves the next network state.
Capabilities
The prototype explores how heterogeneous inputs can be evaluated within one consistent network and behaviour model.
Normalize live sensor values, incident reports, road topology, control infrastructure, and historical traffic patterns into a shared operational model.
Apply AI-based analysis to evolving traffic patterns and calculate congestion probabilities for several forecast horizons.
Resolve forecast conditions against configurable behaviour rules, topology, dependencies, and operational constraints.
Present the input state, evaluated rules, constraints, and resulting measures for operator review and approval.
