This paper introduces a multi-modal AI framework that enhances border control management by integrating dynamic traffic data for real-time queue prediction and resource optimization. Utilizing Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for forecasting and Model Predictive Control (MPC) for actionable policy generation, the approach significantly reduces queue prediction error by up to 35% and average waiting time by 30%, while increasing throughput by nearly 20% compared to traditional methods. The findings underscore the potential of combining advanced AI architectures with optimization techniques to improve operational efficiency in border control systems.
Real-time queue management can slash waiting times by 30% and boost throughput by nearly 20% in border control systems.
In the present work an efficient border control management procedure is proposed. Compared to operational queue management systems, whose operations are based on mostly static data, the proposed work takes into account dynamic traffic conditions, thus enabling optimal performance, even in cases of uncertainty. To this end, we are proposing a multi-modal Artificial Intelligence (AI) framework, tailored to th needs of border control systems, which enables real-time queue prediction, management, and resource optimization. The novel proposed approach integrates heterogeneous data sources and presents them through a unified representation by employing Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for queue forecasting. Furthermore, it leverages Model Predictive Control (MPC) and scheduling optimization to derive actionable control policies, which in turn can be presented to border control officers. The proposed work has been evaluated using synthetic data simulating realistic traffic. The evaluation results demonstrate that the proposed method reduces queue prediction error by up to 35% and average waiting time by 30%. Accordingly, the average throughput increases by nearly 20%, compared to ARIMA and rule-based methods. The abovementioned results show the effectiveness and efficiency of combining AI architectures with optimization techniques for proactive and adaptive border traffic management.
