Predicting subway passenger flows under different traffic conditions.

ABSTRACT: Passenger flow prediction is important for the operation, management, efficiency, and reliability of urban rail transit (subway) system. Here, we employ the large-scale subway smartcard data of Shenzhen, a major city of China, to predict dynamical passenger flows in the subway network. Four classical predictive models: historical average model, multilayer perceptron neural network model, support vector regression model, and gradient boosted regression trees model, were analyzed. Ordinary and anomalous traffic conditions were identified for each subway station by using the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) algorithm. The prediction accuracy of each predictive model was analyzed under ordinary and anomalous traffic conditions to explore the high-performance
