Public transport network optimisation in PTV Visum using selection hyper-heuristics (2020)
Journal Article
Heyken Soares, P., Ahmed, L., Mao, Y., & Mumford, C. L. (2021). Public transport network optimisation in PTV Visum using selection hyper-heuristics. Public Transport, 13(1), 163-196. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12469-020-00249-7

Despite the progress in the field of automatic public transport route optimisation in recent years, there exists a clear gap between the development of optimisation algorithms and their applications in real-world planning processes. In this study, we... Read More about Public transport network optimisation in PTV Visum using selection hyper-heuristics.

An adaptive scaled network for public transport route optimisation (2019)
Journal Article
Heyken Soares, P., Mumford, C. L., Amponsah, K., & Mao, Y. (2019). An adaptive scaled network for public transport route optimisation. Public Transport, 11(2), 379-412. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12469-019-00208-x

We introduce an adaptive network for public transport route optimisation by scaling down the available street network to a level where optimisation methods such as genetic algorithms can be applied. Our scaling is adapted to preserve the characterist... Read More about An adaptive scaled network for public transport route optimisation.
