Abstract

An embodiment generally relates to systems and methods for enhanced cellular automata (CA) models. A processing module can generate a traffic model that comprises a set of vehicles. The traffic model can be processed according to the enhanced CA model. In particular, a perceived gap between vehicles in the set of vehicles can be identified. Further, a subsequent velocity of a following vehicle can be calculated based on metrics such as a maximum velocity, the perceived gap, and various time components.
