Resumen:

Efficient traffic management has become a major concern within the framework of smart city projects. However, the increasing complexity of data exchanges and the growing importance of big data makes this task more challenging. Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) face various challenges, including the management of massive data generated by different entities in their environment. In this context, a proposal is put forth for a real-time anomaly detection system with parallel data processing, thereby speeding up data processing. This approach accurately computes vehicle density for each section at any given time, enabling precise traffic management and the provision of information to vehicles regarding traffic density and the safest route to their destination. Furthermore, a machine learning-based prediction system has been developed to mitigate congestion problems and reduce accident risks. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed solution effectively addresses transportation issues while maintaining low latency and high precision.
