Abstract

With the advent of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) throughout the world, safe transportation becomes critical while maintaining reasonable social distancing that requires a strategy in the mobility of daily travelers. Crowded train carriages, stations, and platforms are highly susceptible to spreading the disease, especially when infected travelers intermix with healthy travelers. Travelers-profiling is one of the essential interventions that railway network professionals rely on managing the disease outbreak while providing safe commute to staff and the public. In this plethora, a Machine Learning (ML) driven intelligent approach is proposed to manage daily train travelers that are in the age-group 16-59 years and over 60 years (vulnerable age-group) with the recommendations of certain times and routes of traveling, designated train carriages, stations, platforms, and special services using the London Underground and Overground (LUO) Network. LUO dataset has been compared with various ML algorithms to classify different agegroup travelers where Support Vector Machine (SVM) mobility prediction classification achieves up to 86.43% and 81.96% in age-group 16-59 years and over 60 years.

  • Asad et al. proposed a machine-learning approach to trace daily train travelers in age cohorts of 16-59 and over 60 in order to recommend safe travel times and routes.

    “Asad et al. [55] proposed to use a machinelearning-(ML)-based approach to trace daily train travelers in different age cohorts of 16-59 years (i.e., the less vulnerable age group) and over 60 (i.e., the more vulnerable age group) in order to recommend certain times and routes for safe traveling.”
  • Using London underground and overground data, the support vector machine approach performed better than other machine-learning algorithms for classifying age group travelers and achieved accuracy above 80%.

    “Using a dataset of the London underground and overground network, different ML algorithms are compared in [55] to properly classify different age group travelers, showing that the support vector machine (SVM) approach performs better to predict the mobility of travelers and achieves high accuracy (more than 80%).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
