This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $538,633 supports fundamental research in modeling stochastic traffic flows for smart mobility systems through February 2026. Funded under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), the award to the University of Maryland, College Park aims to develop machine learning and traffic flow theory to better estimate and predict mobility patterns. The grantee will fuse classical transportation models with learning techniques using transportation domain knowledge to regularize the training process. This foundational work on "Physics Regularized Machine Learning" seeks to encode both continuous and discretized traffic flow models into Gaussian process for training regularization. The research intends to efficiently address common data sparsity and noise issues to enhance various smart mobility applications and accommodate streaming data needs. Results from this NSF-supported work are expected to significantly advance traffic flow modeling and machine learning applications in smart mobility systems.
