1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- generating, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, a piece-wise sinusoidal representation of traffic arrival at a traffic junction;
determining, by the system, a parameter of one or more traffic junctions based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation and a polynomial objective, wherein the determining comprises;
determining a first parameter that is a time of a start of a phase sequence at a first traffic junction and determining a second parameter that is a time of a start of a phase sequence at a second traffic junction, wherein a difference between the first parameter and the second parameter is an offset to vary; 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 traffic junction based on the piece-wise sinusoidal representation of the traffic arrival 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.
