abstract="We propose Bayesian Network based methods for estimating the cycle by cycle queue length distribution of a signalized intersection. Queue length here is defined as the number of vehicles in a cycle which have experienced significant delays. The data input to the methods are sample travel times from mobile traffic sensors collected between an upstream location and a downstream location of the intersection. The proposed methods first classify traffic conditions and sample scenarios to seven cases. BN models are then developed for each case. The methods are tested using data from NGSIM, a field experiment, and microscopic traffic simulation. The results are satisfactory compared with two specific queue length estimation methods previously developed in the literature.<p />",
