        abstract={Few aspects of modern life inflict as high a cost on
        society as traffic congestion and automobile accidents.
        Current work in AI and Intelligent Transportation Systems aims
        to replace human drivers with autonomous vehicles capable of
        safely and efficiently navigating through the most hazardous
        city streets.  Once such vehicles are common, interactions
        between multiple vehicles will be possible.  Traffic lights
        and stop signs, which were designed for human drivers, may no
        longer be the best method for intersection control.
        Previously, we made the case for a reservation-based
        intersection control mechanism designed for autonomous
        vehicles, but compatible with human drivers. Including human
        drivers allows incremental deployability as well as support
        for those who drive for pleasure, but may result in
        significantly suboptimal performance, as human drivers may be
        present in dramatically varying proportions. In this paper, we
        develop a learning-based approach to determine which variant
        of the control mechanism will be most effective under given
        conditions, and then combine the resulting predictor with our
        multiagent intersection management mechanism, enabling it to
        determine when and how it should alter its configuration to
        best suit the current traffic conditions. Our extension is
        fully implemented and tested in simulation, and we provide
        experimental results demonstrating its efficacy.  },
