A Method And System For Predicting Passenger Flow In A Transportation System

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and system for predicting passenger flow in a transportation system. The system receives historical travel data associated with a plurality of passengers of a transport to determine an acceptable delay time and an acceptable transport congestion. The system estimates total number of waiting passengers at a station, based on the historical travel data. The system estimates a delay time and congestion within the transport, based on the historical travel data. The system determines a switching probability to switch the transport, for each of one or more waiting passengers. Further, the system determines a risk of dropping out of the one or more passengers, from boarding the transport, for the station. Thereafter, the system predicts a passenger flow at the station, based on the estimated total number of one or more waiting passengers and the risk associated with the one or more waiting passengers.
