  17. Considerations

  18. Making the Models

  19. What does GP do?

  20. What does GP do?

  21. How GP Works? • GP is based on evolution process, (cross over, mutation, and elitism) • We can use ready applications

  22. GPTIPS

  23. R

  24. Accuracy MAPE: Mean Absolute Percentage Error Di: the detector data value Bi: the reference (base) data value n: the total number of intervals

  25. Case Study Intersections 8th Street and Center Street 9thSt. and Sierra St. N McCarran Blvd and Clear Acre Ln

  26. Sample of data collected for VQ method

  27. Sample of data collected for FC method

  28. Models

  29. Results

  30. Results

  31. Errors using inadequate data are much less than those using no data at all.

  32. Thank you Any comments or questions? If we have data, let’s look at data. If all we have are opinions, let’s go with mine! Jim Barksdale, former Netscape CEO
