Micromobility Station Placement Optimization for a Rural Setting

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Micromobility is an evolving form of transportation modality that uses small human‐ or electric‐powered vehicles to move people short distances. Planners expected that bike sharing, the first form of micromobility, would reduce traffic congestion, cut travel cost, reduce pollution, enable connectivity with other modes of transport, and promote public ...

Life cycle assessment to quantify the impact of technology improvements in bike‐sharing systems

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 138-148, February 2020., 2020
Abstract The reduced environmental footprint of bicycle sharing systems (BSS) is one of the reasons for their rapid growth in popularity. BSS have evolved technologically, transitioning from smart dock systems to smart bicycle systems, and it is not clear if the increased use of electronics in BSS results in a net environmental benefit.

The conditional permutation test for independence while controlling for confounders

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series B (Statistical Methodology), Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 175-197, February 2020., 2020
Summary We propose a general new method, the conditional permutation test, for testing the conditional independence of variables X and Y given a potentially high dimensional random vector Z that may contain confounding factors. The test permutes entries of X non‐uniformly, to respect the existing dependence between X and Z and thus to account for the ...

Machine Learning Approach to Quantity Management for Long‐Term Sustainable Development of Dockless Public Bike: Case of Shenzhen in China

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Since the number of bicycles is critical to the sustainable development of dockless PBS, this research practiced the introduction of a machine learning approach to quantity management using OFO bike operation data in Shenzhen. First, two clustering algorithms were used to identify the bicycle gathering area, and the available bike number and ...
