Techniques in Multimodal Shortest Path in Public Transport Systems

David L. Lopez, Angélica Lozano · Transportation research procedia · 2014

Four techniques used to find shortest paths in multimodal transport networks are discussed. The first technique pre-compute of all possible paths between any two points (Jariyasunant et al., 2010). The second one uses a set of rules to build an abstract graph and a relevant graph where the shortest path can be easily found (Ayed et al., 2011). In the third technique, all the topologically similar paths which reach a given node are simultaneously updated (Ziliaskopoulos and Wardell, 2000). Finally, the fourth technique builds a transport network using a database with a hierarchical structure (Wang et al., 2009).
