Scaling of variations in traveling distances and times of taxi routes
Xiaoyan Feng, Huijun Sun, Bnaya Gross +6
The importance of understanding human mobility patterns has led many studies to examine their spatial-temporal scaling laws. These studies mainly reveal that human travel can be hi…
Study on departure time choice behavior in commute problem with stochastic bottleneck capacity: Experiments and modeling
Dongxu Lu, Rui Jiang, Ronghui Liu +2
Uncertainty is inevitable in transportation system due to the stochastic change of demand and supply. It is one of the most important factors affecting travelers' choice behavior.…
Go left or right? Explore the side preference behavior with circle antipode experiments
Yao Xiao, Ziyou Gao, Rui Jiang +2
Side preference is a critical behavior in conflict handling, and here the behavior is investigated with pedestrian trajectories in circle antipode experiments that own both conflic…
A comparison study on the growth pattern of traffic oscillations in car-following experiments
Shi-Teng Zheng, Rui Jiang, Junfang Tian +4
The evolution of oscillations is a very important issue in traffic flow studies. A recent car-following experiment (Experiment-I) showed that the speed standard deviation grows in…
Investigation of Pedestrian Dynamics in Circle Antipode Experiments
Yao Xiao, Ziyou Gao, Rui Jiang +2
To explore the pedestrian motion navigation and conflict reaction mechanisms in practice, we organized a series of circle antipode experiments. In the experiments, pedestrians are…
Spatial social networks identified from urban group travel
Huijun Sun, Kangli Zhu, Jianjun Wu +6
While the individual travel implicates the trace of individual mobility decision, group travels signify the possible social relationship behind these traces. Different from online…
Investigation of Voronoi diagram based Direction Choices Using Uni- and Bi-directional Trajectory Data
Yao Xiao, Mohcine Chraibi, Yunchao Qu +2
In a crowd, individuals make different motion choices such as "moving to destination", "following another pedestrian", and "making a detour". For the sake of convenience, the three…
Switch between critical percolation modes in city traffic dynamics
Guanwen Zeng, Daqing Li, Shengmin Guo +4
Percolation transition is widely observed in networks ranging from biology to engineering. While much attention has been paid to network topologies, studies rarely focus on critica…
On the role of speed adaptation and spacing indifference in traffic instability: evidence from car-following experiments and its stochastic modeling
Junfang Tian, H. M. Zhang, Martin Treiber +3
Understanding the mechanisms responsible for the emergence and evolution of oscillations in traffic flow has been subject to intensive research by the traffic flow theory community…
Speed dependent stochasticity capacitates Newell model for synchronized flow and oscillation growth pattern
Junfang Tian, Rui Jiang, Bin Jia +2
This paper has incorporated the stochasticity into the Newell car following model. Three stochastic driving factors have been considered: (i) Driver's acceleration is bounded. (ii)…
Traffic incident analysis on urban arterials using ESE: A method for moderate length of time window
Zhen-zhen Yang, Liang Gao, Zi-you Gao +2
Moderate length of time window can get the best accurate result in detecting the key incident time using extended spectral envelope. This paper presents a method to calculate the m…
Traffic Incident Analysis on Urban Arterials Using Extended Spectral Envelope Method
Zhen-zhen Yang, Liang Gao, Zi-you Gao +2
A traffic incident analysis method based on extended spectral envelope (ESE) method is presented to detect the key incident time. Sensitivity analysis of parameters (the length of…
An exponent tunable network model for reproducing density driven superlinear relation
Yuhao Qin, Liang Gao, Lida Xu +1
Previous works have shown the universality of allometric scalings under density and total value at city level, but our understanding about the size effects of regions on them is st…
Quantifying Information Flow During Emergencies
Liang Gao, Chaoming Song, Ziyou Gao +3
Recent advances on human dynamics have focused on the normal patterns of human activities, with the quantitative understanding of human behavior under extreme events remaining a cr…
