报告简介

Traffic assignment is a fundamental tool to evaluate the flow distribution pattern in a transport network. As one of the most recognized theory for traffic assignment, user equilibrium is widely investigated and implemented1). Most of the existing algorithms for the user equilibrium-based traffic assignment problem are developed and implemented sequentially. This study aims to study and investigate the parallel computing approach to utilize the widely available parallel computing resources. The Parallel Block-Coordinate Descent (PBCD) algorithm is developed based on the path-based algorithm, i.e, the improved path-based gradient projection algorithm (iGP). A parallel block-coordinate method is proposed to replace the widely used Gauss-Seidel method for the procedure of path flow adjustment. To further improve the robustness/performance of the algorithm, the iPBCD algorithm is developed based on the state-of-the-art PBCD algorithm. A different type of flow update policy is studied and investigated intensively.The block size is determined using a sensitive test, and fiveindices-grouping rules are compared. Besides, a greedy update order of block indexes is introduced to compare with the cyclic scheme. Moreover, a new algorithm is developed based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). In order to take use of the ADMM, the network links should be grouped into several blocks, where the links in the same block are disconnected. This link grouping problem falls into the category of edge-coloring problem in graph theory, and it follows the Vizing theorem. Numerical examples show that the proposed algorithms perform well in convergence and efficiency and can significantly reduce the computing time.
