Article Preview

Abstract:

Most of the new stations have chosen to install Platform Screen Door (PSD) for safety and energy-saving. But this will lead to the distribution of passengers are not evenly distributed but gathered in front of the PSD. Traditional idea will not reflect the true state of waiting passengers. Design a new method of passenger state classification evaluation in urban rail transit station platform is essential. In this paper, we proposed a new approach to evaluate the level of service (LOS) of platform. The results suggest that the new approach provides a better performance than its alternatives.
