The Metropolitan Seoul Subway system, consisting of 380 stations, provides the major transportation mode in the metropolitan Seoul area. Focusing on the network structure, we analyze statistical properties and topological consequences of the subway system. We further study the passenger flows on the system, and find that the flow weight distribution exhibits a power-law behavior. In addition, the degree distribution of the spanning tree of the flows also follows a power law.

The master equation approach is proposed to describe the evolution of passengers in a subway system. With the transition rate constructed from simple geographical consideration, the evolution equation for the distribution of subway passengers is foun
d to bear skew distributions including log-normal, Weibull, and power-law distributions. This approach is then applied to the Metropolitan Seoul Subway system: Analysis of the trip data of all passengers in a day reveals that the data in most cases fit well to the log-normal distributions. Implications of the results are also discussed.
Recently, with the availability of various traffic datasets, human mobility has been studied in different contexts. Researchers attempt to understand the collective behaviors of human movement with respect to the spatio-temporal distribution in traff
ic dynamics, from which a gravitational scaling law characterizing the relation between the traffic flow, population and distance has been found. However, most studies focus on the integrated properties of gravitational scaling, neglecting its dynamical evolution during different hours of a day. Investigating the hourly traffic flow data of Beijing subway network, based on the hop-count distance of passengers, we find that the scaling exponent of the gravitational law is smaller in Beijing subway system compared to that reported in Seoul subway system. This means that traffic demand in Beijing is much stronger and less sensitive to the travel distance. Furthermore, we analyzed the temporal evolution of the scaling exponents in weekdays and weekends. Our findings may help to understand and improve the traffic congestion control in different subway systems.
This paper presents an evolution model of weighted networks in which the structural growth and weight dynamics are driven by human behavior, i.e. passenger route choice behavior. Transportation networks grow due to peoples increasing travel demand an
d the pattern of growth is determined by their route choice behavior. In airline networks passengers often transfer from a third airport instead of flying directly to the destination, which contributes to the hubs formation and finally the scale-free statistical property. In this model we assume at each time step there emerges a new node with m travel destinations. Then the new node either connects destination directly with the probability p or transfers from a third node with the probability 1-p. The analytical result shows degree and strength both obey power-law distribution with the exponent between 2.33 and 3 depending on p. The weights also obey power-law distribution. The clustering coefficient, degree assortatively coefficient and degree-strength correlation are all dependent on the probability p. This model can also be used in social networks.
One of Aesops (La Fontains) famous fables `The Ant and the Grasshopper is widely known to give a moral lesson through comparison between the hard working ant and the party-loving grasshopper. Here we show a slightly different version of this fable, n
amely, The Ant and the Metrohopper, which describes human mobility patterns in modern urban life. Numerous real transportation networks and the trajectory data have been studied in order to understand mobility patterns. We study trajectories of commuters on the public transportation of Metropolitan Seoul, Korea. Smart cards (Integrated Circuit Cards; ICCs) are used in the public transportation system, which allow collection of transit transaction data, including departure and arrival stations and time. This empirical analysis provides human mobility patterns, which impact traffic forecasting and transportation optimization, as well as urban planning.
Flight delay happens every day in airports all over the world. However, systemic investigation in large scales remains a challenge. We collect primary data of domestic departure records from Bureau of Transportation Statistics of United States, and d
o empirical statistics with them in form of complementary cumulative distributions functions (CCDFs) and transmission function of the delays. Fourteen main airlines are characterized by two types of CCDFs: shifted power-law and exponentially truncated shifted power-law. By setting up two phenomenological models based on mean-field approximation in temporal regime, we convert effect from other delay factors into a propagation one. Three parameters meaningful in measuring airlines emerge as universal metrics. Moreover, method used here could become a novel approach to revealing practical meanings hidden in temporal big data in wide fields.
