Abstract :
To solve the signal control problems created by the mutual interference between motor traffic and pedestrians in cities, the signal control model with pedestrians non-complying is proposed based on the traditional signal optimization model. A particle swarm algorithm is proposed to solve the signal control problem. Based on an intersection of Tianhe district in Guangzhou City, the model is calculated and simulated through programming. As it shows, the proposed method achieved substantially better performance than did traditional approaches without considering pedestrians non-complying.
