Trip Purpose Prediction with Minimal Sequential Context: A Parsimonious Machine Learning Approach

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Trips labelled ’Home’ and ’School’ were predicted with the highest accuracy, correctly identifying about 92% of those trips. ’Shopping’ and ’Dining Out’ trips were moderately well classified (∼55% each), whereas ’Leisure’ trips were more often confused with other purposes (∼29% correct), likely because leisure activities are diverse and occur under ...

Passenger Flow‐Aware Train Scheduling Model for Minimising Energy Consumption in Urban Rail Systems

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study proposes a dynamic‐programming (DP)‐based train scheduling framework that models the interaction among passenger flow, train mass, and energy consumption, enabling energy‐efficient operation under time‐varying demand. Case studies on a real metro line show that the method reduces energy consumption by up to 10.8% while maintaining transport ...

Nonlinear and Interactive Effects of the Built Environment on Low‐Carbon Travel Intentions: Evidence From Large‐Scale Map Usage Data in Beijing

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Understanding the relationship between travel behavior and modifiable built environment attributes is essential for promoting low‐carbon urban mobility, particularly under emerging carbon peaking and neutrality targets. While previous studies have explored this relationship, limited attention has been paid to residents’ intentions for low‐carbon travel

Dynamic Evolution of Multilevel Rail Transit Destination Choice Behavior Based on Disaggregate–Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To address the distribution of origin–destination (OD) passenger flow in multilevel rail transit complex network, we propose a simulation method based on travel behavior and reinforcement learning for travelers’ multilevel rail transit network destination choice behavior.

A bikeshare station area typology to forecast the station-level ridership of system expansion

open access: yesJournal of Transport and Land Use, 2019
The continuous introduction and expansion of docked bikeshare systems with publicly available origin-destination data have opened exciting avenues for bikeshare research. In response, a flux of recent studies has examined the sociodemographic determinants and safety or natural environment deterrents of system ridership.

The role of public transport in addressing sustainable mobility for the elderly population in Malta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Over the past few years, several countries have continued experiencing a growth in their elderly population. Similarly, a number of towns and villages in Malta registered a high elderly population in the last census (NSO, 2012).
