Demand Variation Analysis of Public Transportation using Piecewise Linear Approximation Model

The purpose of this study is to understand the public transportation demand variation over a long period of time, including the period affected by the COVID-19. Here, the total number of smart card usage is demand, and an increase or decrease in demand is the trend. By extracting the trend and the point when the trend changes, the long-term demand variations can be grasped. As a result, it was clarified how demand fluctuated due to the effects of the COVID-19. Also, clustering the stations with similar trends, the authors inferred from the spatial distribution of the stations belonging to each class and the environment surrounding the stations how the passenger behavior changed due to the spread of the COVID-19.
