Czech Republic 3 s-Unification for Vehicular Headway Modeling

We explain why a sampling (division of data into homogenous sub-samples), segmentation (selection of sub-samples belonging to a small sub-area in ID plane – a segmentation zone), and scaling (a linear transformation of random variables representing a standard subroutine in a general scheme of an unfolding procedure) are necessary parts of any vehicular data investigations. We demonstrate how representative traffic micro-quantities (in an unified representation) are changing with a location of a segmentation zone. It is shown that these changes are non-trivial and correspond fully to some previously-published results. Furthermore, we present a simple mathematical technique for the unification of GIG-distributed random variables.
