Abstract With the increasing technological advancements and fields such as the industrial internet, autonomous driving, smart homes, intelligent transportation, and smart cities, all may benefit greatly from edge applications. These fields demand greater speed and efficiency for computing, network transmission, and user interaction in order to keep up with the growth. Stemming from the unique speed-up advantages that the edge computation model gives over traditional cloud computation, it is a suitable technology for deployment on the roads and streets, making edge a prime candidate to process traffic data. As previously mentioned, intelligent transportation, autonomous driving and smart cities all require intense computation to ensure they function correctly, and deploying edge on roads serves to address this issue. We explore the KITTI data set from the perspective of analyzing traffic congestion on complex roads. Our analysis shows: 1) based on object bounding boxes expressed within the data, each instantaneous situation can be separated into non-congestion and congestion; 2) the mid-point distances between bounding boxes effectively determines the congestion level. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first proposed use of a non-continuous timestamped data set for traffic congestion detection. © 2019 Copyright held by the owner/author(s).
