Claim 18:
19. The apparatus of claim 18, wherein the at least one set of data includes a prior patterns data set for the related link subset, an epoch traffic pattern data set for the related link subset, and a state transition data set for the related link subset, wherein a probability Eti of the selected road link (i) at time (t) that the predicted traffic level has a state Xt based on the related link subset (MB) is calculated according to:

Eti=arg Max[P(MBt-k|Xt)·P(Xt-k|Xt)·P(Xt)],

wherein a first probability P(MBt-k|Xt) is determined from the prior patterns data set, a second probability P(Xt-k|Xt) is determined from the epoch traffic pattern data set and a third probability P(Xt) is determined from the state transition data set.
