Traffic big data can reflect individual travel patterns, making it possible to establish ABMs. However, current ABMs based on big data are not mature, especially in the individual trip forecasting. Therefore, this paper proposes an advanced ABM using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and mobile phone signalling data. The model is skeleton scheduling which contains primary activity chaining and secondary activity nesting. Then a time-dynamic adjustment model is proposed to adjust time conflicts among consecutive activities. A field test is conducted in Chengdu. The KS values of work and leisure departure time reach 35.20 × 10<sup>−2</sup> and 41.02 × 10<sup>−2</sup> separately, and that for activity duration reach 44.91 × 10<sup>−2</sup> and 54.65 × 10<sup>−2</sup>. The results show our model can effectively predict activities, and has better accuracy and stability than existing BN, DT, GRNN, RF and GRU.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48871,"journal":{"name":"Transportmetrica A-Transport Science","volume":"20 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41867943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing studies of the CB mainly focus on issues regarding the bus station location, route design, timetabling, and fare setting, but rarely consider the passenger to bus station assignment problem which can significantly influence passengers’ benefit and the buses’ operating scheme. Thus, this study focuses on the customised bus routing problem with passenger-to-station assignment (CBRP-PSA) aiming to simultaneously minimise passengers’ CB service access cost and the bus route cost. A time-discretized multi-commodity network flow model is developed to jointly determine the CB routes, timetables, and passenger-to-station assignment by allowing split loads and mixed loads. Through the dualization, the developed model is decomposed into two solvable sub-problems, and a Lagrangian-based heuristic solution algorithm is proposed. The model and algorithm are implemented in illustrative, medium-scale, and large-scale transportation networks to demonstrate their effectiveness under different scenarios.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48871,"journal":{"name":"Transportmetrica A-Transport Science","volume":"20 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47305596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An unstable network will make passengers impatient and some people will choose some other alternative travel modes, such as metro or bus. To achieve stable and reliable SAV services, this study designs a dynamic queueing model for waiting passengers and provides a fast maximum stability dispatch policy for SAVs when the average number of waiting for passengers is bounded in expectation, which is analytically proven by the Lyapunov drift techniques. After that, we expand the stability proof to a more realistic scenario accounting for the existence of exiting passengers. Unlike previous work, this study considers exiting passengers in stability analyses for the first time. Moreover, the maximum stability of the network doesn't require a planning horizon based on the proposed dispatch policy. The simulation results show that the proposed dispatch policy can ensure the waiting queues and the number of exiting passengers remain bound in several experimental settings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48871,"journal":{"name":"Transportmetrica A-Transport Science","volume":"20 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41873027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Distinguishing between inherent performance and the role of efficiencies due to differing environmental and system-specific characteristics is challenging. This study provides a data-driven benchmarking method which accommodates heterogeneity in operational performance among urban rail systems. Using an international dataset of 36 metros in year 2016, operators are clustered into peer groups through clustering algorithms based on operational characteristics. ANOVA and post-hoc tests are then applied to explore variations between clusters. Finally, efficiency performance benchmarking is conducted through Data Envelopment Analysis. Our clustering results corroborate to the natural geographic grouping of the systems. Moreover, our results show that the use of an aggregated index is inadequate to represent the operator’s overall quality-of-service. Finally, results show that clustering operators into groups based on similarities in their operational characteristics would introduce more meaningful benchmarks for best practices as they are more likely to be attainable.","PeriodicalId":48871,"journal":{"name":"Transportmetrica A-Transport Science","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59991244","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
