Patent application number | Description | Published |
20140067251 | HEDGING RISK IN JOURNEY PLANNING - Embodiments of the disclosure include a method for journey planning including receiving a journey planning request, the journey planning request having an origin and a destination in a transportation network. The method also includes calculating an optimized journey plan by identifying a plurality of routes through the transportation network from the origin to the destination and determining an uncertainty associated with each of the plurality of routes. Calculating an optimized journey plan also includes evaluating a robustness of each of the plurality of routes to the uncertainty associated with each of the plurality of routes and selecting the optimized journey plan based on the journey planning request and the robustness of each of the plurality of routes. | 03-06-2014 |
20140067254 | HEDGING RISK IN JOURNEY PLANNING - Embodiments of the disclosure include a computer system for journey planning, the computer system includes a journey planning server configured to perform a method. The method includes receiving a journey planning request, the journey planning request having an origin and a destination in a transportation network. The method also includes calculating an optimized journey plan by identifying a plurality of routes through the transportation network from the origin to the destination and determining an uncertainty associated with each of the plurality of routes. Calculating an optimized journey plan also includes evaluating a robustness of each of the plurality of routes to the uncertainty associated with each of the plurality of routes and selecting the optimized journey plan based on the journey planning request and the robustness of each of the plurality of routes. | 03-06-2014 |
20140067266 | JOURNEY COMPUTATION WITH RE-PLANNING BASED ON EVENTS IN A TRANSPORTATION NETWORK - Embodiments of the disclosure include a method for journey planning including receiving a journey planning request. The request includes an origin and a destination in a transportation network. The method also includes calculating an optimized journey plan based on the journey planning request and a route map corresponding to the transportation network and identifying a potential event in the transportation. The method further includes monitoring the transportation network for the potential event and based on detecting an execution of the potential event, calculating an improved journey plan. | 03-06-2014 |
20140094988 | DE-NOISING SCHEDULED TRANSPORTATION DATA - Embodiments of the disclosure include a method for de-noising data in a scheduled transportation system, the method includes receiving a plurality of digital traces that correspond to a piece of equipment in the scheduled transportation system. The method also includes identifying a plurality of journeys from the plurality of digital traces, wherein each of the plurality of journeys corresponds to the piece of equipment traversing one of a plurality of routes and generating a route map and schedule for the scheduled transportation system from the plurality of journeys and the plurality of digital traces. | 04-03-2014 |
20140094991 | DE-NOISING SCHEDULED TRANSPORTATION DATA - Embodiments of the disclosure include a method for de-noising data in a scheduled transportation system, the method includes receiving a plurality of digital traces that correspond to a piece of equipment in the scheduled transportation system. The method also includes identifying a plurality of journeys from the plurality of digital traces, wherein each of the plurality of journeys corresponds to the piece of equipment traversing one of a plurality of routes and generating a route map and schedule for the scheduled transportation system from the plurality of journeys and the plurality of digital traces. | 04-03-2014 |
20140095065 | ESTIMATION OF ARRIVAL TIMES AT TRANSIT STOPS - Embodiments of the disclosure include a method for providing a consolidated estimated time of arrival in a scheduled transportation system. The method includes receiving at least one of a scheduled time of arrival, a real-time estimated time of arrival and a predictive estimated time of arrival and assigning a weight to each of the scheduled time of arrival, the real-time estimated time of arrival and the predictive estimated time of arrival. The method also includes calculating a confidence level and the consolidated estimated time of arrival based on the weights and the scheduled time of arrival, the real-time estimated time of arrival and the predictive estimated time of arrival. | 04-03-2014 |
