Research paper analyzes agent models' impact on bus routing complexity

A new research paper explores the computational complexity of bus routing problems, particularly how different agent models and their walking cost objectives influence the difficulty of finding optimal routes. The study finds that even simple agent cost models lead to hardness on general networks and that agent-specific cost models can cause hardness even on simple tree structures. However, consistent agent models and the choice between bus and direct walking can alter the problem's complexity. AI

    The Influence of Agent Models on the Complexity of Bus Routing

    In bus routing, the task is to plan a bus route in a network with several agents, each of whom wants to travel from a starting point to a destination. A bus route should account for several factors, including agents' cost for reaching the bus stops, their travel time, or the ener…
