In this paper, we propose a novel, computational efficient, dynamic ridesharing algorithm. The beneficial computational properties of the algorithm arise from casting the ridesharing problem as a linear assignment problem between fleet…

This study evaluates path sets generation for route choice models in multimodal public transportation networks, using both conventional (network algorithms) and empirical (smart card data driven) methods. While the empirical approach can…

Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) is a flexible prediction model/machine learning approach that has gained widespread popularity in recent years. As BART becomes more mainstream, there is an increased need for a paper that walks…

We consider the line planning problem in public transport in the Parametric City, an idealized model that captures typical scenarios by a (small) number of parameters. The Parametric City is rotation symmetric, but optimal line plans are…

The main problems in transportation are accidents, increasingly slow traffic flow, and pollution. An intelligent transportation system (ITS) using external infrastructure can overcome these problems. For this reason, the number of such…

The design of mobile autonomous robots is challenging due to the limited on-board resources such as processing power and energy. A promising approach is to generate intelligent schedules that reduce the resource consumption while…

The paper investigates a dial-a-ride problem focusing on the residents of large cities. These individuals have the opportunity to use a wide variety of transportation modes. Because of this, ridepooling providers have to solve the tradeoff…

With the growing attention towards developing the multimodal transport system to enhance urban mobility, there is an increasing need to construct new, rebuild or expand existing infrastructure to facilitate existing and accommodate newly…

The rapid adoption of electric buses by transit agencies around the world is leading to new challenges in the planning and operation of bus networks. In particular, the limited driving range of electric vehicles imposes operational…

Line coverage is to cover linear infrastructure modeled as 1D segments by robots, which received attention in recent years. With the increasing urbanization, the area of the city and the density of infrastructure continues to increase,…

The paper introduces and evaluates the concept of the dynamic interlining of buses. Dynamic interlining is an operational strategy for routes that have a terminal station at a common hub, that allows a portion of (or all) the fleet to be…

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is an emerging technology allowing to control the propagation environment in wireless communications. Recently, beyond diagonal RIS (BD-RIS) has been proposed to reach higher performance than…

Perimeter control involves monitoring network-wide traffic and regulating traffic inflow to alleviate hypercongestion. Implementation of transit priority with perimeter control measures, which allow transit into a controlled area without…

This paper addresses a multi-period line planning problem in an integrated passenger-freight railway system, aiming to maximize profit while serving passengers and freight using a combination of dedicated passenger trains, dedicated freight…

Public transport is vital for meeting people's mobility needs. Providers need to plan their services well to offer high quality and low cost. Optimized planning can benefit providers, customers, and municipalities. The planning process for…

In a ride-pooling system, travellers experience discomfort associated with a detour and a longer travel time, which is compensated with a sharing discount. Most studies assume travellers receive either a flat discount or, in rare cases, a…

To improve the utilization of public transportation systems (PTSs) during off-peak hours, we present an algorithmic framework that designs PTSs with hybrid transportation units (HTUs), which can transport passengers or freight by leveraging…

This paper introduces a traffic engineering routing algorithm that aims to accept as many routing demands as possible on the condition that a certain amount of bandwidth resource is reserved for each accepted demand. The novel idea is to…

The Urban Rail Transit (URT) has been one of the major trip modes in cities worldwide. As the passengers arrive at variable rates in different time slots, e.g., rush and non-rush hours, the departure frequency at a site directly relates to…

With the increasing market penetration of battery-electric buses into urban bus networks, practitioners face many novel planning problems. As a result, the interest in optimization-based decision-making for these planning problems increases…
