• Abstract: Mobile device location data (MDLD) contains abundant travel behavior information to support travel demand analysis. Compared to traditional travel surveys, MDLD has larger spatiotemporal coverage of population and its mobility. However, ground truth information such as trip origins and destinations, travel modes, and trip purposes are not included by default. Such important attributes must be imputed to maximize the usefulness of the data. This paper tends to study the capability of MDLD on estimating travel mode share at aggregated levels. A data-driven framework is proposed to extract travel behavior information from the MDLD. The proposed framework first identifies trip ends with a modified Spatiotemporal Density-based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (ST-DBSCAN) algorithm. Then three types of features are extracted for each trip to impute travel modes using machine learning models. A labeled MDLD dataset with ground truth information is used to train the proposed models, resulting in 95% accuracy in identifying trip ends and 93% accuracy in imputing five travel modes (drive, rail, bus, bike and walk) with a Random Forest (RF) classifier. The proposed framework is then applied to two large-scale MDLD datasets, covering the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area and the United States, respectively. The estimated trip distance, trip time, trip rate distribution, and travel mode share are compared against travel surveys at different geographies. The results suggest that the proposed framework can be readily applied in different states and metropolitan regions with low cost in order to study multimodal travel demand, understand mobility trends, and support decision making.

  In this paper, we propose to model trip-level link travel time using a Gaussian hierarchical model. The results demonstrate its superior performance compared to state-of-the-art deterministic and probabilistic baselines. We find that the learned link representations align well with the physical geometry of the network, making them suitable as input for other applications.

  Travel mode choice (TMC) prediction helps in understanding what makes citizens choose different modes of transport for individual trips. As behaviour may evolve over time, we also face the question of detecting concept drift in the data. This necessitates using appropriate methods to address potential concept drift.

  Vehicle volume serves as a critical metric and the fundamental basis for traffic signal control, transportation project prioritization, road maintenance and more. Traditional methods of quantifying vehicle volume rely on manual counting, video cameras, and loop detectors at a limited number of locations. This paper presents a big-data driven framework that can ingest terabytes of Device Location Data and estimate vehicle volume at a larger geographical area with a larger sample size.
