Smart Metro Station Systems : Data Science and Engineering

Smart Metro Station Systems: Data Science and Engineering introduces key technologies in data science and engineering for smart metro station systems. The book consists of three main parts, focusing on the environment, people and energy. Each chapter includes practical applications, along with information on metro traffic flow monitoring and passenger guidance, methods for behavior analysis and trajectory projection, clustering and anomaly detection in crowd hotspots, monitoring and prediction for station humidity, monitoring and spatial prediction for air pollutants, time series feature extraction and analysis of metro load, characteristic and correlation analysis of metro load, and prediction and intelligent ventilation control.

This volume offers a key reference on the emerging area of smart metro stations and will be useful to those working on smart railways, data science, engineering, artificial intelligence and aligned fields.
