Anatomy and efficiency of urban multimodal mobility
Riccardo Gallotti, Marc Barthelemy
The growth of transportation networks and their increasing interconnections, although positive, has the downside effect of an increasing complexity which make them difficult to use…
Influence of sociodemographic characteristics on human mobility
Maxime Lenormand, Thomas Louail, Oliva G. Cantu-Ros +6
Human mobility has been traditionally studied using surveys that deliver snapshots of population displacement patterns. The growing accessibility to ICT information from portable d…
Scaling: Lost in the smog
Rémi Louf, Marc Barthelemy
In this commentary we discuss the validity of scaling laws and their relevance for understanding urban systems and helping policy makers. We show how the recent controversy about t…
A typology of street patterns
Rémi Louf, Marc Barthelemy
We propose a quantitative method to classify cities according to their street pattern. We use the conditional probability distribution of shape factor of blocks with a given area,…
Scaling in transportation networks
Rémi Louf, Camille Roth, Marc Barthelemy
Subway systems span most large cities, and railway networks most countries in the world. These networks are fundamental in the development of countries and their cities, and it is…
Cross-checking different sources of mobility information
Maxime Lenormand, Miguel Picornell, Oliva G. Cantu-Ros +6
The pervasive use of new mobile devices has allowed a better characterization in space and time of human concentrations and mobility in general. Besides its theoretical interest, d…
From mobile phone data to the spatial structure of cities
Thomas Louail, Maxime Lenormand, Oliva García Cantú +5
Pervasive infrastructures, such as cell phone networks, enable to capture large amounts of human behavioral data but also provide information about the structure of cities and thei…
How congestion shapes cities: from mobility patterns to scaling
Rémi Louf, Marc Barthelemy
The recent availability of data for cities has allowed scientists to exhibit scalings which present themselves in the form of a power-law dependence with population of various soci…
