Title: Robust Optimization of Checkpoint Locations for Drunk Driver Interception
Accession Number: 01371506
Record Type: Component
Abstract: This paper focuses on planning driving under the influence (DUI) checkpoint locations in a general transportation network to maximize the benefits from reducing public exposure to drunk drivers. A robust optimization model is proposed to address uncertainties associated with link traffic volumes and the likelihood of having a drunk driver on a particular network link. The consequent mathematical model has a bi-level program structure and a non-convex inner problem. The authors propose a number of solution approaches, including alternating ascent algorithm, convex relaxation and duality techniques and commercial solvers for the inner problem, and greedy and fast interchange algorithms for the outer problem. A set of numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the computational efficiency and solution quality of the proposed algorithms.
