Abstract

Considering passengers’ travel psychoanalysis, the public traffic model of optimum route is proposed, which primary goal is minimal transfer times and the second goal is shortest travel time. On the integrated analysis of the space relationship between stations, the public traffic network’s searching model is proposed. Basing on the searching model, the minimal transfer times problem is solved by translating to the problem of the shortest route between two stations. The whole shortest route algorithm of the minimal transfer times is issued, which can efficiently solve the travel project of all the least minimal times between two stations. Finally, basing on the analysis of public traffic travel time chain, the time evaluating function is provided to calculate the public traffic travel time.
