Researchers compare localized and global ML models for bus occupancy prediction

Researchers have developed a new framework for predicting bus ridership by employing a spatial clustering approach combined with multi-dimensional feature analysis. This method divides urban areas into distinct regions, training localized prediction models for each cluster to better capture unique urban dynamics. The framework integrates ridership data with external factors like weather and temporal patterns, demonstrating accuracy comparable to traditional global models. AI
