Artificial Intelligence and Fuzzy Logic for Next-Generation Intelligent Transportation Systems

This book explores and highlights the latest techniques and applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and fuzzy logic in the development of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). It offers a detailed examination of how to leverage these technologies to solve complex transportation challenges, such as traffic congestion, route optimization, and autonomous vehicle navigation. Artificial Intelligence and Fuzzy Logic for Next Generation Intelligent Transportation employs several novel approaches and special design features. It includes case studies and real-world examples illustrating the practical applications of the technologies under review. Furthermore, it integrates interdisciplinary perspectives, combining insights from computer science, engineering, urban planning, and environmental science. Each chapter is self-contained, providing both theoretical background and practical insights, making it accessible to a broad audience. Additionally, this book features contributions from leading experts in the field, ensuring that the content is both current and relevant.

• Presents advanced methodologies in AI and fuzzy logic, specifically designed to enhance ITSs
• Offers a detailed examination of how technologies can be leveraged to solve complex transportation challenges, such as traffic congestion, route optimization, and autonomous vehicle navigation
