Study on k-shortest paths with behavioral impedance domain from the intermodal public transportation system perspective

Abstract

Behavioral impedance domain consists of a theory on route planning for pedestrians, within which constraint management is considered. The goal of this paper is to present the k-shortest path model using the behavioral impedance approach. After the mathematical model building, optimization problem and resolution problem by a behavioral impedance algorithm, it is discussed how behavioral impedance cost function is embedded in the k-shortest path model. From the pedestrian's route planning perspective, the behavioral impedance cost function could be used to calculate best subjective paths in the objective way.
