Title: A Survey of Bus Arrival Time Prediction Methods
Abstract: Traffic flow is often affected by several stochastic factors and the timely availability of precise travel time data of moving automobiles is valuable for both drivers and the commuters. Public transportation system gives people an option of choosing busses to the passengers to commute which reduces their own vehicle use. However, it often encounters inaccurate arrival time, which is affected by many factors such as vehicle congestion, road conditions, weather conditions, vehicle breakdowns. To plan their travel itinerary in a better way, the passengers often need real-time information. They don’t want to spend their time waiting for the bus. In this paper, we have done a literature survey to study the existing methods used to predict the arrival time of buses. Different models that have been proposed to reduce the travel time of passengers have been presented and discussed.
