车辆在高速公路合流区内跟驰行驶时,会受到其他车辆加减速、频繁变道及匝道车辆并入主线等行为的影响。为探究此情况下跟驰行为表现出的特征及受不同干扰而呈现出的行为差异,基于在高速公路合流区域拍摄的视频,处理出48辆车的轨迹数据,从中提取出11个可表征车辆跟驰状态的特征参数。利用粒子群优化的模糊聚类(Particle Swarm Optimization Fuzzy C-Means, PSO-FCM)算法,从车速稳定性、跟驰行为倾向性和横向位置稳定性3方面对跟驰行为特征进行聚类分析。结果表明:不同车道内驾驶员的跟驰行为受到的影响及表现出的行为特征都呈现出显著的差异,外侧车道驾驶员受到的影响最大,行驶状态不稳定且易表现出较为激进的跟驰行为;中间车道次之;内侧车道相对稳定,受区域交通流干扰相对较小。可推断,高速公路合流区交通流的不稳定性是该区域不同车道内驾驶员跟驰行为存在明显差异的直接诱因,与路段内交通事故频发的现状也存在一定的内在联系。
When the vehicles were following in the merging area of freeway, they would be affected by the behavior of other vehicles, such as acceleration and deceleration, frequent lane changing and merging of ramp vehicles into the main line. In order to explore the characteristics of the following behavior under the influence and the behavior difference caused by different interferences, the trajectory data of 48 vehicles were processed from the video taken in freeway merging area. 11 characteristic parameters which could represent the vehicle following state were extracted from the trajectory data. The PSO-FCM (Particle Swarm Optimization Fuzzy C-Means) algorithm was used to analyze the following behavior characteristics from three aspects: speed stability, tendency of following behavior and lateral position stability. The results show that there was significant difference of the drivers′ following behaviors in different lanes. The drivers in the outer lane were most affected, their driving state was unstable and they were prone to more aggressive following behaviors; the middle lane was the second; their inner lane was relatively stable, and the interference of regional traffic flow was relatively small. It could be inferred that the instability of traffic flow in the merging area of freeway is the direct cause to the obvious difference of vehicle following behavior in different lanes of this area, and it also has a certain internal relationship with the current situation of frequent traffic accidents in the road section.
