Attempting to calibrate a large-scale tra�ffic flow simulator

Kurzfassung

This contribution demonstrates how to perform calibration and validation for the open source tra�ffic flow micro-simulation SUMO [1]. Preliminary results for a real-world scenario are presented. This serves as an example how a black box model can be calibrated and validated without knowing and accessing the inner workings of the simulation model. Here, "black box" is from the view-point of an tra�ffic analyst, which is a valid view for many researchers despite SUMO being an open source program.
