Modifiable Areal Unit Problem on Network Topological Measures for Public Transit Flows
ABSTRACT Transit flows can provide useful insights into urban mobility patterns and dynamics. Generally, the transit flows between the origin and destination locations are aggregated into areal units for statistical analysis. A well‐known issue is the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP), where its sensitivity depends on the basic areal units.

SubeYa: A System for Predicting Passenger Demand at Train Stations
This study addresses the challenges of urban congestion and long wait times within EL1ML by introducing SubeYa, a web‐based platform designed to predict passenger demand. By utilizing the Prophet predictive model and analysing historical data from 2019 to 2025, the system achieves a global MAE of 259.10.
