© 2022Traffic congestion is a major concern for many metropolises. Although it is difficult to regulate traffic flow because of numerous complexities and uncertainties, the traffic congestion problem must be mitigated in order to reduce the environmental problems related to traffic and the time lost on the roads in big cities. Intelligent traffic control methods, the use of which is increasing with the development of new methods, as opposed to conventional methods, and provide more efficient solutions, especially in traffic intersections with high traffic density. In this paper, we propose a new agent-based Fuzzy Logic assisted traffic light signal timing for traffic intersections. Deep Q-Learning algorithms and Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) are used together in the proposed method. In this study, the proposed method and many traffic light control methods in the literature were simulated. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, some of the important metrics of evaluation such as traffic congestion, air pollution, and waiting time were used in the assessment of the simulation results. In addition, with the proposed method, it has been shown that the stability and robustness of the system are increased.
