Applying Reinforcement Learning to Optimize Traffic Light Cycles
Manual optimization of traffic light cycles is a complex and time-consuming task, necessitating the development of automated solutions. In this paper, we propose the application of reinforcement learning to optimize traffic light cycles in real-time. We present a case study using the Simulation Urban Mobility simulator to train a Deep Q-Network algorithm. The experimental results showed 44.16% decrease in the average number of Emergency stops, showing the potential of our approach to reduce traffic congestion and improve traffic flow. Furthermore, we discuss avenues for future research and enhancements to the reinforcement learning model.
