Some notable topics include the use of static and probabilistic computer learning techniques in TMCs, an overview of Japan’s cooperative ‘ITS Spot’ service launched in 2011 and the emergence of self-learning smartphone apps.  

Registration has opened and the event (which takes the theme Safety, Choices, Opportunities, Results, Efficiencies) is expected to attract government representatives and technical experts as well as infrastructure and transport planning professionals.
