Benchmark note: AUC-PR comparisons between detector classes are methodologically invalid for early warning evaluation. CANAREON is a precursor detector — it fires before events. AUC-PR for precursor detectors is structurally lower than for event correlators. See the Science page for full benchmark methodology.

Operational Impact
98.5 minutes of median advance warning means traffic management centres can pre-position incident response units, adjust upstream signal timing, and pre-warn downstream routes before congestion develops into gridlock.
CANAREON detects early instability signals of congestion — not the congestion event itself. Cross-domain generalisation in progress.
