TLDR
The performance of different vehicle-following models was evaluated based on different Measure of Effectiveness (MoE) using field data collected from a four-lane divided urban arterial road in Chennai city and the results showed the promise of some measures based on vehicle class.Abstract:
To understand the congestion problem and the occurrence of bottlenecks and to formulate solutions for it, a thorough study of vehicle-to-vehicle interactions is necessary. Car-following models replicate the behavior of a driver following another vehicle. These models are widely used in the development of traffic simulation models, and in analysis of safety and capacity. In India, traffic on roads is mixed in nature with wide variations in physical dimensions and other vehicular and traffic characteristics with loose lane discipline. In mixed traffic conditions, leader-follower vehicle types are not only car–car cases but also there are different combinations of vehicles (e.g. car-two wheeler, two wheeler-auto rickshaw, and heavy vehicle-two wheeler). The present study focuses on evaluation of different vehicle-following models under mixed traffic conditions. The car-following models such as Gipps, Intelligent Driver Model (IDM), Krauss Model and Das and Asundi were selected for this study. These m...read more

Evaluating performance of selected vehicle following models using trajectory data under mixed traffic conditions
TL;DR: To test the car-following model’s efficacy in replicating the following behavior, simulation runs were performed using VISSIM 9.0 and it was well-established that psychophysical models (Wiedemann), multi-regime (Gipps), and IDM car- following models resemble Indian traffic behavior reasonably well, whereas single- Regime car- Following model, optimal velocity model fails in replicates the actual following-behavior.

New fuzzy solution for determining anticipation and evaluation behavior during car-following maneuvers:
TL;DR: This paper aims to investigate the behavior of the immediate follower during the lane-change of its leader vehicle with a novel and adaptive neuro-fuzzy model that considers human driving factors and reveals that the proposed model can describe anticipation and evaluation behavior with smaller errors.
