Design and analysis of logistic agent-based swarm-neural network for intelligent transportation system

Abstract

Driven by the massive number of connected vehicles and the stringent requirements of data-intensive applications, logistics transportation systems have evolved to fully comprehend its effectiveness and quality to meet public transportation needs. As a result, to meet public transportation requirements and analyze the data efficiently at the edge of the networks, an advanced artificial intelligent technique needs to be introduced to make the transportation system intelligent by supporting efficient decision making, intelligent traffic control, and intrusion and misuse detection.Motivated by the challenges mentioned above, in this paper, we develop a logistic agent-based model for analyzing public transports such as cars, bus or trains in the intelligent transportation system. The intelligent logistic framework is built on a parallel neural network structure, known as a Swarm-Neural Network (SWNN). The proposed SWNN model analyzes the sensory data and recognizes the public transportation at the edge of the networks. The SWNN model is constructed so that it fits within the intelligent logistic transportation framework, and the proposed model shortens the transit time of every small-scale logistics delivery to its destination. The performance of the proposed SWNN model is evaluated using a standard TMD dataset, where the SWNN model is trained using data, retrieved multiple sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and audio sensors. The features of the sensory data are extracted based on a 5-s time interval. The performance of the proposed SWNN model is studied over various standard machine learning techniques such as Random Forest, XGBoost, and Decision Tree. As per the simulation results, the proposed technique achieves 78–98% accuracy over a real-time dataset’s different sets of features.
