发明名称 EFFICIENT ROUTE PLANNING IN PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION NETWORKS
摘要 This document discloses a system that selects a path to reach a destination in a transportation network. The system receives information related to a public transportation network with multiple stops. Each stop includes at least one associated link with another stop. Each the link represents a mode of transportation between two stops. When the system receives a request for a routes between an origin and a destination within the transportation network, it will determine a set of routes between the origin and the destination using an iterative process without reference to a graph representation of the network. The system will select a shortest path that corresponds to the route having the earliest arrival time at the destination. The system will also select an alternative path that corresponds to a route having an arrival time that is no more than a threshold amount later than the earliest arrival time.

主权项 1. A method of selecting a path to reach a destination in a transportation network, the method comprising: receiving, by a processing device, information related to a public transportation network including a plurality of stops, wherein each of the stops comprises at least one associated link with another one of the stops; receiving, by the a processing device, a request to determine one or more routes between an origin and a destination within the transportation network; determining, by the processing device, a plurality of routes through the transportation network between the origin stop and the destination using an iterative process without reference to a graph representation of the network; selecting, from the determined routes, a shortest path so that the shortest path corresponds to a route from the plurality of routes having an earliest arrival time at the destination; selecting, from the determined routes, an alternative path that so that the alternative path corresponds to a route having an arrival time that is no more than a threshold amount later than the earliest arrival time; and generating, by the processing device, an output comprising the shortest path and the alternative path.
