Improving Bus Travel Times with Passive Traffic Signal Coordination
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2009 A simulation optimization model is outlined: traffic signal offsets in intersections are calculated to minimize the travel time of bus users in an urban network. The model considers a passive signal priority system and restricts the maximal incremental delay caused to car users.

A Hybrid Model Based on Support Vector Machine for Bus Travel-Time Prediction
Promet (Zagreb), 2015 Effective bus travel time prediction is essential in transit operation system. An improved support vector machine (SVM) is applied in this paper to predict bus travel time and then the efficiency of the improved SVM is checked.
