1. A system, comprising:
- a memory that stores computer executable components;
a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components comprise;
an identification component that generates a piece-wise sinusoidal representation of traffic arriving at a first traffic junction;
an optimization component that determines an offset between a start of a first phase sequence of the first traffic junction and a start of a second phase sequence of a second traffic junction based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation; and
generating, by the system, a multi-variate polynomial describing an average queue length of a defined traffic type from a plurality of traffic types at the first traffic junction based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation for the plurality of traffic types.

Abstract
Techniques for autonomously optimizing traffic flow amongst one or more traffic junctions are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method can comprise generating, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, a piece-wise sinusoidal representation of traffic arrival at a first traffic junction. The computer-implemented method can also comprise determining, by the system, an offset a parameter of one or more traffic junctions based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation and a polynomial objective.

4. A non-transitory computer program product for controlling traffic, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
-
generate a piece-wise sinusoidal representation of traffic arrival at a first traffic junction; determine an offset between a first parameter of the first traffic junction and a second parameter of a second traffic junction based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation, wherein the first parameter is a start of a first phase sequence and the second parameter is another start of a second phase sequence; and generate a multi-variate polynomial describing an average queue length of traffic at the first traffic junction over a phase sequence based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation, and wherein the determining is based on the generated multi-variate polynomial. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
