Transportation policy as spatial planning tool: reducing urban sprawl by increasing travel costs and clustering infrastructure and public transportation Ghent University University of Antwerp
Public bus transportation system environmental impact projections regarding different policy scenarios : a LCA study Ghent University
Urban activities, such as transportation, are responsible for a large portion of energy-related CO2 emissions. As the need for sustainable urban development increases, decision-makers embrace Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as a reliable tool capable of generating scientifically based information on environmental impacts. However, there is still a lack of an analysis standard regarding the particularities of urban systems. Therefore, this research ...
SubwayPS: Towards Enabling Smartphone Positioning in Underground Public Transportation Systems Hasselt University
Data Mining Method for Smart Card Data Using Household Travel Survey: A Pilot Study of Public Transportation in Suwon, South Korea Hasselt University
The aim of this study is to propose a new data mining method in order to conduct the data fusion 8 between household travel survey and smart card data. This study proposed the step-wise filtering 9 method, which categorizes a population group based on the activity patterns at first, then estimates the 10 temporal attributes of each activity from the household survey data. The estimated values are applied 11 for assigning trip purpose of the ...
Hybrid Approach for the Public Transportation Time Dependent Orienteering Problem with Time Windows KU Leuven Ghent University
The Time Dependent Orienteering Problem with Time Windows (TDOPTW) consists of a set of locations with associated time windows and scores. Visiting a location allows to collect its score as a reward. Traveling time between locations varies depending on the leave time. The objective is to obtain a route that maximizes the obtained score within a limited amount of time. In this paper we target the use of public transportation in a city, where ...
Integrating public transportation in personalised electronic tourist guides KU Leuven Ghent University
Personalised Electronic Tourist Guides (PETs) are mobile hand-held devices able to create tourist routes matching tourists' preferences. Transportation information has been identified as one of the most appreciated functionalities of a PET. We model the tourist planning problem, integrating public transportation, as the Time-Dependent Team Orienteering Problem with Time Windows (TD-TOPTW) in order to allow PETs to create personalised tourist ...
Planning in Tourism and Public Transportation - attraction selection by means of a personalised electronic tourist guide and train transfer scheduling KU Leuven Ghent University
This is a summary of the author’s Ph.D. thesis supervised by Dirk Van Oudheusden and Willy Herroelen and defended in May 2008 at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. The thesis is written in English and is available from the author upon request. In this work different operations research techniques are applied to solve several scheduling problems in two different domains. The first domain deals with improved passenger service in railway systems. ...
Public transportation algorithm for an intelligent routing system KU Leuven
Due to the high complexity of the required calculations, Intelligent Routing Systems have to apply latest Operations Research techniques to be able to create routes efficiently. This paper proposes a solution to the Multi Path Orienteering Problem with Time Windows (MPOPTW),which includes multiple paths to move between locations. The main characteristics of MPOPTW are: the total collected score obtained by visiting locations has to be ...
