Abstract

Precise bus arrival time prediction can attract more passengers to take public transportation. In this paper, we propose a multi-model bus arrival time prediction approach using real-time online information, by decomposing the travel time into the sum of dwell time and link time, which are predicted separately and then summed to obtain the predicted trip time between adjacent bus stops. Four prediction models, namely Simple Moving Average (SMA), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) and Hybrid Model (SMA and LSTM), are used to evaluate and compare the performance of the proposed multi-model prediction approach. Using the proposed hybrid multi-model, it was found that the average MAPE% among SMA, ANN, LSTM and Hybrid Model are 33.56%, 32.15%, 26.76% and 23.45%, respectively. The proposed hybrid multi-model with SMA and LSTM gives the best performance, with a MAPE improvement of about 3.3%.
