Chung-Ang University Researchers Develop a Meta-Reinforcement Learning Algorithm for Traffic Signal Control

Posted by Jay Bartlett 11:48 am Categories: Cloud, Technologies. Tags: , .

Existing traffic signal controllers are often inadequate in handling traffic congestion and reinforcement learning (RL) has been adopted to solve this problem. However, RL usually works in a stationary environment, while traffic environments are nonstationary. Researchers have now developed a meta-RL model that adjusts its goal based on the traffic environment, maximizing vehicle throughput during peak hours and minimizing delays during relaxed traffic flow. The algorithm has a wide-area coverage and outperforms existing alternative algorithms.

Opening the Door to Access Control in Industrial Facilities

Posted by Jay Bartlett 10:30 pm Categories: Access Control. Tags: , , .

Electronic access control (EAC) systems are often installed at the doors or gates of buildings as part of an overall physical security program. EAC acts as a digital checkpoint, selectively restricting entry to a building or zone only to authorized individuals, therefore adding a critical layer of protection for the people and assets inside. The level of access a person has will vary depending on their security status, or depending on the location they are attempting to enter. EAC will also regulate the times and conditions within which access is allowed.
