Finding the Optimal Bus-Routes Based on Data Mining Method

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 7995))

Abstract

It is a very difficult for a passenger to find out an optimal bus-route to travel in a metropolis. A novel approach of search the optimal bus-routes based on date mining technology is presented in this paper. In the approach, we first use the Floyd algorithm to search and to get the candidate set of the optimal bus-routes, and then use data mining method to mine the optimal bus-lines which is hidden in the candidate set. Experiment were conducted on a real bus-line data set, and the experimental results shows that the approach is effective and feasible in search for the optimal bus-routes.
