HLSR: Hybrid Live Forecast Selective Dynamic Vehicle Rerouting for Real-Time Congestion Avoidance

HLSR is a selective hybrid live‑forecast vehicle rerouting framework designed to reduce urban traffic congestion. It combines live edge speeds with short‑horizon forecasts, using dual‑threshold congestion detection, calibrated upstream selection, and driver‑tailored travel‑time prediction. The method introduces approaching‑vehicle expansion, travel‑time‑weighted k‑shortest‑path generation, and a horizon‑dependent hybrid live‑forecast segment speed for multi‑cost route allocation.

Customizable and Jointly Optimized Route Planning: A Deep Architecture Enabling Differentiable Shortest-Path Search

The paper introduces a deep architecture that jointly optimizes cost functions and a route-ranking model to accommodate diverse user preferences in route planning. It first generates a complete set of Pareto‑optimal routes using a multi‑objective Dijkstra algorithm, then employs a neural network that emulates shortest‑path search and ranking in an end‑to‑end differentiable framework. A novel loss function treats route preference as a constrained optimization problem, allowing a single objective to be optimized while other attributes remain constrained, and experiments on real‑world data show significant improvements over existing methods.

Online Learning for Dynamic Constellation Topologies

The paper proposes an online learning framework for configuring dynamic constellation topologies in satellite networks, addressing the challenges posed by continuous orbital movement and node maneuvering. It does not rely on predefined orbital plane structures, making it robust to changes caused by satellite maneuvers. Experiments show that the method performs comparably to state‑of‑the‑art offline techniques and can be adapted to constrained online learning, balancing per‑iteration computational cost against convergence speed.
