A Novel Trajectory Based Prediction Method for Urban Subway Design

In recent years, with the development of various types of public transportation, they are also more and more closely connected. Among them, subway transportation has become the first choice of major cities. However, the planning of subway stations is very difficult and there are many factors to consider. Besides, few methods for selecting optimal station locations take other public transport in to consideration. In order to study the relationship between different types of public transportation, the authors collected and analyzed the travel data of subway passengers and the passenger trajectory data of taxis. In this paper, a method based on LeaderRank and Gaussian Mixed Model (GMM) is proposed to conduct subway station locations selection. In this method, the author builds a subway-passenger traffic zone weighted network and a station location prediction model. First, we evaluate the nodes in the network, then use the GPS track data of taxis to predict the location of new stations in future subway construction, and analyze and discuss the land use characteristics in the prediction area. Taking the design of the Beijing subway line as an example, the suitability of this method is illustrated.
