Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of traffic flow guidance technology, and in particular to a method and system for generating urban rail transit route guidance information. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of urban rail transit systems in major cities and the increasing passenger flow, higher demands are being placed on the networked operation of subways. Existing research shows that guidance information plays a significant role in guiding passengers' route selection behavior and is an important component of passenger transport organization methods. Currently, Chinese research focuses primarily on information content such as effective route search, with limited research on the patterns of passenger travel route selection behavior under the combined influence of guidance information content and its presentation. Furthermore, there is a lack of personalized guidance information generation methods adapted to the preferences of urban rail transit passengers. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a personalized generation method for urban rail transit route guidance information content and presentation to provide decision support for subway passenger flow guidance information generation. Summary of the Invention

The conditional entropy is the conditional entropy of the path selection decision event under the condition that a path attribute takes a certain presentation form level. A path attribute includes multiple presentation forms, and each presentation form includes multiple presentation form levels. The information gain is the information gain of the presentation form level of the path attribute on the path selection decision event.

[0007] Based on the utility model of the presentation format of the inducement information and the utility model of the content of the inducement information, the perceived coefficient of the inducement information of the path is determined;

[0062] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0063] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the process for generating urban rail transit route guidance information according to the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, a method for generating urban rail transit route guidance information includes:

[0069] The information provided in the guidance information includes route travel time, route congestion level, and number of transfers. The numerical values ​​of the indicators in the guidance information are averages from historical data of the same scenario and time period in the system database.

[0070] The information entropy of a path selection decision event is calculated using the information entropy calculation method. The information entropy is expressed as:

[0071]

[0072] Where I represents the passenger's route selection decision event, i represents the route selection result, and i∈I R ,I R =(1,2,3,...), I R This represents the set of alternative paths.

[0073] The conditional entropy of the path selection decision event under the condition that the path attribute f takes the display format level l is calculated based on the conditional entropy calculation method. The conditional entropy is expressed as:

[0074] H(I|l)=-p(l)H(I|L f =l);

[0075] Among them, L f This indicates the horizontal display format of the path attribute f. This represents a horizontal set of display formats;

[0076] The information gain of the formal level of a factor on the path selection decision event is calculated based on the information gain calculation method, which is the utility of the formal level l, expressed as: g(I,l)=H(I)-H(I|l).

[0077] The utility model for the induced information display format is the sum of the normalized information gains of each path attribute corresponding to the set display format G, taken as the level of the set display format, denoted as H. G ;

[0078] The induced information content utility model models information content from two dimensions: quantity and quality. The quantity dimension is represented by the number of information particles, and the quality dimension is represented by the accuracy of information.

[0079] The information particle number of path a is defined as the level of the number of passengers served by its current urban rail transit path, represented by the load factor.

[0080] The number of information particles is represented as: N R,a =1 / (ε'+Load) ave,a ),

[0081] in, N R,a The number of information particles representing path a, ε' represents a non-zero positive number, Load ave,a I represents the average load factor of path a. R Represents the set of alternative paths, Load u,v q represents the load factor of the interval from node u to node v. u,v N represents the passenger flow through the interval from node u to node v. trainThis represents the number of trains passing through the interval from node u to node v, where node u and node v are points on path a, and λ is the number of trains passing through the interval from node u to node v. train This indicates the train's rated passenger capacity. This represents the total number of intervals along path a.

[0082] Information accuracy is represented by travel time variability, and R(o) is calculated using the Kaparias method. R ,d R The coefficient of variation of travel time (COV) R .

[0083] COV R =STD R / Mean R ;

[0084] The accuracy of the information is expressed as: π R,a =1 / COV R ;

[0085] Among them, COV R STD represents the coefficient of variation of travel time. R Indicates OD to R(o) R ,d R Standard deviation of travel time within a day, Mean R Indicates OD to R(o) R ,d R The average daily travel time, o R Indicates the starting position, d R Indicates the destination location.

[0086] Step 102: Determine the perceptual coefficient of the path's guiding information based on the utility model of the guiding information display format and the utility model of the guiding information content.

[0087] Step 102 specifically includes:

[0088] Based on the utility model of the presentation format of the inducement information and the utility model of the content of the inducement information, the utility of the inducement information of path a under the presentation format G is determined.

[0089] The utility of the inducement information is represented as: U R,a,G =N R,a ×π R,a ×H G .

[0090] Among them, H G This represents the utility model of the presentation format of the induced information.

[0091] The induced information perception coefficient of path a is determined based on the induced information utility.

[0092] The inductive information perception coefficient is expressed as:

[0093] in

[0094] Where, k R,a,G Indicates OD to R(o) R ,d R The perceptual coefficient of G in the representation of path a, where e is a natural constant.

[0095] Step 103: Construct a passenger route selection model based on the induced information perception coefficient. The passenger route selection model is an improved Logit model.

[0096] Based on the induced information perception coefficient k R,a,G Adjusting the initial parameters of the polynomial Logit model:

[0097] θ=[θ time ,θ load ,θ trans ];

[0098]

[0099] θ is a vector, θ time θ represents the travel time attribute coefficient. load θ represents the crowding attribute coefficient. trans This represents the transfer attribute coefficient. It is called a specific alternative discrete parameter based on induced information perception, defined as the induced information perception coefficient k. R,a,G The function, These are intermediate parameters.

[0100] An improved Logit model is constructed based on the adjusted parameters:

[0101] The negative utility vector of travel path a, i.e., the cost feature vector, is:

[0102]

[0103] The impact of travel time, congestion, and number of transfers was measured. Let a be the vector representing the negative utility of path a. Let be the travel time for path a. Let γ represent the congestion level of path a, and γ represent the number of transfers for path a.

[0104] By the principle of utility maximization, the probability of choosing path a is:

[0105]

[0106] The improved Logit model is represented as follows:

[0107]

[0108] Among them, P a This represents the probability of choosing path a.

[0109] Step 104: Calibrate the model parameters of the passenger route selection model according to different types of passengers.

[0110] The model parameters include travel time attribute coefficients, congestion attribute coefficients, and transfer attribute coefficients.

[0111] Different types of passengers refer to the classification of passengers based on their personal attributes such as age, familiarity with the road network, and travel purpose. According to travel purpose, passengers can be divided into three categories: commuter / student passengers, daily rest passengers, and tourists. A survey was conducted on the route selection behavior of urban rail transit passengers under different forms of guidance information. The survey included: 1. A survey of passengers' personal socioeconomic attributes and travel habits; 2. A survey of passengers' route selection behavior under guidance information.

[0112] Based on the survey results, the maximum likelihood estimation method was used to calibrate the model parameters for different types of passenger distributions, and a personalized passenger route selection model under the influence of guidance information was constructed.

[0113] The survey on passenger travel route selection behavior under different forms of guidance information display refers to providing passengers with guidance information in different display formats, considering different levels of multiple route attributes. Specifically, as shown in Table 1, three levels of format were selected for each of the three route attributes included in the guidance information content: travel time, congestion level, and transfer situation; as shown in Table 2, an orthogonal experiment was designed with a total of nine combinations of guidance information display formats.

[0114] Table 1. Different display formats for each path attribute (factor)

[0115]

[0116] Table 2. Combination of Travel Time, Congestion Level, and Transfer Information Display Format

[0117]

[0118]

[0119] In this embodiment of the invention, the survey on passengers' personal socioeconomic attributes and travel habits refers to the survey of passengers' gender, age, weekly subway travel frequency, travel purpose, and travel route planning methods, in order to determine the comprehensiveness and rationality of the survey data.

[0120] In this embodiment of the invention, the survey of passenger route selection behavior under guidance information refers to: obtaining a set of alternative routes for travel origin-destination (OD) from historical data, and obtaining the values ​​of three route attributes—travel time, congestion level, and transfer status—for the corresponding time period from historical average flow factor (AFC) data. Under different information formats, travel route guidance information displaying the travel time, congestion level, and transfer status of each alternative route is provided. After selecting a route under different forms of guidance information, passengers click "Select this route," meaning each passenger participates in 9 experiments.

[0121] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a total of 438 passengers were surveyed. After removing unqualified records such as those with too short a completion time or contradictory options, 389 valid results were collected. Since each participant was required to make their own route selection under 9 types of APP guidance information schemes (as described above), the total dataset contains 3501 samples. The male-to-female ratio in the sample is basically balanced, with slightly more men than women; passengers aged 18 to 60 account for the majority; the majority of passengers travel 6 to 10 times per week; the vast majority of travelers plan their routes by querying information through a mobile APP; among the three historically common subway travel purposes—commuting to school, daily leisure, and travel—nearly half of the passengers were commuters to school, more than one-third were daily leisure passengers, and less than 20% were travelers. The data is similar to the samples collected in existing research surveys, indicating that the data collected in this survey is acceptable.

[0122] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the purpose of travel is used as the basis for classifying passenger types. The utility model of the inducement information display form based on information entropy, conditional entropy and information gain is constructed. The utility values ​​of different types of passengers are calculated by combining the information obtained from the survey data, as shown in Table 3.

[0123] Table 3 Utility Value Calculation Results for Different Types of Passengers

[0124]

[0125] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the parameter calibration results of the improved polynomial Logit model constructed by combining induced information perception coefficients are shown in Table 4.

[0126] Table 4. Parameter calibration results of the improved polynomial Logit model

[0127]

[0128] Table 5 Comparison between the improved MNL model and the basic MNL model

[0129]

[0130] Taking the route selection model for commuter and student passengers as an example, the comparison between the improved MNL model and the basic MNL model is shown in Table 5. As can be seen from Table 5, although the goodness of fit of both models is within the acceptable range, the improved MNL model (0.374) that considers the form of induced information is better than the unimproved MNL model (0.313).

[0131] Step 105: Based on the passenger route selection model calibrated with different model parameters, generate guidance information with the goal of minimizing the uneven distribution of passenger flow.

[0132] Aiming for the optimal balance of passenger flow distribution means using a road network status index that reflects the balance of passenger flow distribution, namely the road network load factor distribution entropy, to assess the road network status under passenger flow guidance.

[0133] The objective function, which aims to minimize the uneven distribution of passenger flow, is expressed as:

[0134]

[0135] Where E represents the entropy of the full load rate distribution of the road network in the set area. If the number of intervals included in the road network under study is D, then the value range of E is [0, lnD].

[0136] g represents the discrete value of the full load rate in the interval, with a precision of 0.1 and a maximum full load rate of 150%, i.e., g = (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, ..., 1.5). The specific full load rate value is rounded to the discrete value according to the rounding rules.

[0137] Ratio g This indicates the percentage of road network sections with a full load rate of g out of the total number of road network sections in the designated area.

[0138] In a specific embodiment, step 105 specifically includes:

[0139] For each type of passenger, a set of guidance information display schemes is determined by combining the display level corresponding to each path and the different path attribute display forms of each path. Each display scheme in the guidance information display scheme set includes the display level corresponding to the path attribute display form of each path.

[0140] Each of the guidance information display schemes in the set is specifically a combination of travel time, congestion level, and transfers for each route.

[0141] Traverse the set of guidance information display schemes, calculate the path selection probability based on each guidance information display scheme according to the passenger path selection model, and determine the road network load factor distribution entropy of the set area based on the path selection probability.

[0142] The directional information display scheme corresponding to the minimum value among the road network load factor distribution entropies of multiple set areas obtained through traversal is used as the final directional information output.

[0143] In another specific embodiment, step 105 specifically includes:

[0144] Step 501: Information Scheme Initialization. Set the information scheme to G, set initial values ​​for the form level of each path utility influencing factor for each type of passenger, calculate the path travel cost and selection probability, and obtain the load factor distribution entropy by allocating traffic.

[0145] Step 502: Modify the level values ​​of each form of the guidance information for each type of passenger to obtain a new information scheme G', recalculate the route travel cost and selection probability under this scheme, and calculate the load factor distribution entropy after allocation.

[0146] Based on the aforementioned path selection model, passenger flow allocation under information scheme G is performed. Passenger flow allocation can be transformed into a Logit-based MSA model, satisfying the following constraints:

[0147]

[0148] In the formula: The planned trip OD is represented as R(o) R ,d R The number of passengers of type m who choose route a for their trip;

[0149] Represents the m-th type of passenger with respect to R(o) R ,d R ) OD demand;

[0150] The planned trip OD calculated by the route selection model is represented as R(o R ,d R The probability that the m-th type of passenger chooses route a for travel.

[0151] The passenger flow of each type of passenger on each route is superimposed to obtain the passenger flow of each section, the section load factor is calculated, and then the load factor distribution entropy is calculated.

[0152] Step 503: Compare the model target values ​​under G' and G. If the target value Z G >Z G' The optimal solution is updated to G', and the objective value is Z. G' Otherwise, retain the current optimal solution and target value unchanged.

[0153] Step 504: Determine whether the traversal of all information schemes and all passenger types is complete. If yes, output the optimal scheme G, the occupancy rate of each section, and the optimal target value Z.G Otherwise, return to step "Modify the level values ​​of each form of guidance information for each type of passenger to obtain a new information scheme G', recalculate the route travel cost and selection probability under this scheme, and calculate the load factor distribution entropy after allocation".

[0154] Step 505: Output the optimal guidance information scheme and optimal target Z for various types of passengers, that is, generate the guidance information content and display format that minimizes the target value.

[0155] like Figure 5 The flowchart shown illustrates the solution process for the objective function, which includes the following steps:

[0156] Step 1: Initialization. Assign initial values ​​to each variable, and input the urban rail transit network topology data, normal network clearing data, and AFC data under the same historical station closure events during the research period.

[0157] Step 2: Clean the AFC passenger flow data, extract the OD passenger flow matrix of the network under study, and denote the OD to R(o R ,d R The demand is q. R Assuming that demand does not shift to other modes of transportation during station closures, i.e., demand remains unchanged;

[0158] Step 3: Statistics and recording of effective paths.

[0159] Step 4: Let the current assigned passenger be of type m, and set the initial value m = 1.
