Oshyani, M.F. (author), Cats, O. (author)Bus travel times are subject to inherent and recurrent uncertainties. A real-time prediction scheme regarding how the transit system evolves will potentially facilitate more adaptive operations as well as more adaptive passengers’ decisions. This scheme should be tractable, sufficiently fast and reliable to be used in real time applications. For...conference paper 2014

Cats, O. (author), Zhang, C. (author), Nissan, A. (author)Parking pricing policies can be used as a policy instrument to steer the parking market and reduce the externalities caused by traffic in general and parking in particular. A more efficient management of parking demand can improve the utilization of the limited parking capacity at high-demand areas. Even though parking policies are often a topic...conference paper 2015

West, J. (author), Cats, O. (author)Assessment of bus service improvements such as bus lanes, allowing boarding through all doors and headway-based holding control ideally requires a simulation model that combines features of both classical analytical models and microscopic simulation. However, as the usage of such models has been limited, their validity has hitherto remained low....conference paper 2015

Ghaemi, N. (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author), Cats, O. (author)Railway trafic controllers have only limited decision support to deal with disruptions. The aim of this research is to provide an algorithm to compute conflict-free routes for trains that cannot continue their planned operation due to a track obstruction. In case of complete blockage, trains need to short-turn at the closest possible station to...conference paper 2015

Cats, O. (author), Jenelius, E. (author)Disruptions often result with partial capacity reduction without resulting with a complete breakdown. This study aims to move beyond the analysis of complete failure by investigating the impacts of partial capacity reduction on public transport network performance. We analyse the relation between the extent of capacity reduction at the line...conference paper 2015

Cats, O. (author), Yap, M. (author), Van Oort, N. (author)Network vulnerability depends on the probability that adverse events occur and on the impacts of such disruptions on network functionality. Most studies on transport network vulnerability have only analysed vulnerability in terms of the reduction in performance indicators given that a disruption occurs. This study presents and applies a method...conference paper 2015

Van Oort, N. (author), Cats, O.

Keyvan Ekbatani, M. (author), Cats, O. (author)This study proposes a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) modelling framework for the appraisal of multi-modal urban public transportation services. MCDM is commonly used to obtain choice alternatives that satisfy a range of performance indicators. The framework embraces both compensatory and non-compensatory approaches including lexicographic...conference paper 2015

Bagherian, M. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hickman, M (author)Service reliability is a key performance measure for transit agencies in increasing their service quality and thus ridership. Conventional reliability metrics are established based on vehicle movements and thus do not adequately reflect passenger’s experience. In the past few years, the growing availability of smart card data allows shifting the...conference paper 2016

Het beter matchen van vraag en aanbod levert zowel een kwaliteitssprong als kostenreductie op en heeft dus alle aandacht. Bestaande databronnen helpen, maar zijn nog...conference paper 2016

Khiari, J (author), Moreira-Matias, L (author), Cerqueira, Vitor (author), Cats, O. (author)The efficiency of Public Transportation (PT) Networks is a major goal of any urban area authority. Advances on both location and communication devices drastically increased the availability of the data generated by their operations. Adequate Machine Learning methods can thus be applied to identify patterns useful to improve the Schedule Plan. In...conference paper 2016

Cats, O. (author), Jenelius, E (author), Viti, F (author)Holding has been extensively investigated as a strategy to mitigate the inherently stochastic nature of public transport operations. Holding focuses on either regulating vehicle headways using a rule-based approach or minimizing passenger travel cost by employing optimization models. This paper introduces a holding decision rule that explicitly...conference paper 2016

MaaS aims at the full integration of the existing transportation services and it offers tailored mobility packages to the user. In MaaS ecosystems, on-demand services play an important role as complement to public transport due to their flexibility. However, to date, most...conference paper 2017

Ton, D. (author), Duives, D.C. (author), Cats, O. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)The specification of the choice set for travel behaviour analysis is a non-trivial task, as its size and composition are known to influence the results of model estimation and prediction. Most studies specify the choice set using choice set generation algorithms. These methods can introduce two severe errors to the specified choice set: false...conference paper 2017

Yap, M.D. (author), Cats, O. (author), Yu, S (author), van Arem, B. (author)Crowding in public transport can be of major influence on passengers’ travel experience and therefore affect route and mode choice. Therefore, it is important to understand how crowding in urban public transport is perceived by passengers. The availability of individual smart card transactions allows us to gain insights in revealed trade-offs...conference paper 2017
