Through a combination of regulations, fear of contagion, and changes in travelers’ habits, the COVID-19 pandemic affected the mobility of public-transit ridership worldwide. To understand the longer-term effects of the pandemic on public-transit ridership, we focus on the case of Paris, France, thanks to an open 5 year record of entries into more t...
The dynamics of urban transportation can be captured using activity-based models, which rely on travel demand data to get a comprehensive understanding of urban mobility. This data is usually derived from population samples and Household Travel Surveys (HTSs), which can be expensive and as a result, are conducted only every 5 to 10 years. Moreover,...
Forecasting counts data in transportation areas can enrich passenger information for public transport passengers, who may thus better plan their trips. Moreover, forecasting with uncertainty is particularly important in the transportation domain, where the risk of poorly managed high demand is to be avoided. In this paper, we propose a new probabil...
This paper deals with a clustering approach based on mixture models to analyze multidimensional mobility count time-series data within a multimodal transport hub. These time series are very likely to evolve depending on various periods characterized by strikes, maintenance works, or health measures against the Covid19 pandemic. In addition, exogeno...
Clustering is used in many applicative fields to organize data into a few groups. Motivated by behavioral extraction issues from urban data, this paper proposes a new clustering method to model clusters with dynamic profiles while considering common regressive effects. As maximum likelihood estimation is not suitable in this case, the parameters of...
The increase in the amount of data collected in the transport domain can greatly benefit mobility studies and create high value-added mobility information for passengers, data analysts, and transport operators. This work concerns the detection of the impact of disturbances on a transport network. It aims, from smart card data analysis, to finely qu...
Understanding driver-vehicle interactions remains a challenge, particularly in the case of cornering. This is particularly the case for powered two-wheeler vehicle (PTWs) users, perhaps because PTW drivers play a greater role in controlling the stability of their vehicles than do four-wheeled vehicle drivers. This difficulty stems from the variety...
Mobility demand analysis is increasingly based on smart card data, that are generally aggregated into time series describing the volume of riders along time. These series present patterns resulting from multiple external factors. This paper investigates the problem of decomposing daily ridership data collected at a multimodal transportation hub. Th...

Riders have numerous explanations of strategies for controlling...
One of the major goals of transport operators is to adapt the transport supply scheduling to the passenger demand for existing transport networks during each specific period. Another problem mentioned by operators is accurately estimating the demand for disposable ticket or pass to adapt ticket availability to passenger demand. In this context, we...
Soiling losses are a major concern for remote power systems that rely on photovoltaic energy.

Driving errors are considered to be the greatest contributory cause in all road accidents and an important contributory cause of most fatal accidents. This is particularly the case for the users of powered two-wheeled vehicles (PTWs), perhaps because PTW riders play a greater role in the control of their vehicles' stability than four-wheeled vehicl...

Posture analysis in quiet standing is an essential element in evaluating human balance control. Many factors enhance the human control system's ability to maintain stability, such as the visual system and base of support (feet) placement. In contrast, many neural pathologies, such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and cerebellar disorder, disturb human s...
