Dynamic Bus Travel Time Prediction Models on Road with Multiple Bus Routes [PDF]
Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience, 2015 Accurate and real-time travel time information for buses can help passengers better plan their trips and minimize waiting times. A dynamic travel time prediction model for buses addressing the cases on road with multiple bus routes is proposed in this paper, based on support vector machines (SVMs) and Kalman filtering-based algorithm.

Effects of rural bus stops on travel time and reliability [PDF]
Public Transport, 2021 AbstractDue to relatively low patronage levels, rural bus stops are sometimes questioned in order to improve travel time and reliability on regional bus services. Previous research into stop spacing has focused on urban areas, which means that there is a lack of knowledge regarding the effects of bus stops in regional networks, with longer distances ...

Optimization Scheme of Fine Toll and Bus Departure Quantity for Bottleneck Congestion Management
Complexity, 2021 This paper chooses car travel and bus travel as the research objects, establishes a dual-mode equilibrium model based on the bottleneck model, and compares the travel characteristics of the no-toll and fine-toll schemes. We find that the fine-toll scheme
