About the Project

The QUANTRA project aims to explore the potential of quantum models to revolutionize traffic network modeling and problem-solving. This project investigates how classical transportation models can be formulated as quantum models for generic traffic network analysis and their application in traffic prediction and control.

The key challenge remains in reformulating spatio-temporal dynamics of transportation models for the quantum realm. The project will leverage on DTU's Computing Center (DCC) High Performance Computing (HPC) facility for running QUANTRA simulations and developing new quantum architectures using modern HPC capabilities.

Research Agenda:

  • Methodological, by reviewing and modelling selected families of transportation problems that have the potential to be formulated as generic quantum models.
  • Development, by applying the developed theoretical models for large-scale traffic network estimation, prediction, and control.
  • Experimental, by designing, testing, and assessing computational environments for simulating quantum model performance for the selected large-scale transportation applications.

Collaboration Opportunities:

  • Collaboration with researchers from computer science and transportation in a truly interdisciplinary environment.
  • Opportunities for international collaborations and knowledge sharing.
