Abstract :
Q-Learning can successfully solve the congestion problem of isolated intersection. But it is not available to realize the coordination between two intersections. A switching-model of two intersections is introduced in this paper. The concept of combinative phase is put forward in order to divert two intersections into a single one. In this way, we can apply Q-Learning on two adjacent intersections. The validity and feasibility are proved by Paramics simulation software.
