| Abstract | In high‐frequency transit, providing real‐time crowding information (RTCI) is a potential way to promote passenger satisfaction and reduce negative crowding externalities, by assisting passengers in choosing less crowded vehicles. To make RTCI convincing and reliable, it is necessary to provide predictive RTCI, in which bus passenger load (BPL) prediction is the primary problem. This paper proposes a novel two‐stage BPL prediction method using automatic passenger counting (APC) data. The first stage is to predict short‐term passenger flows at stops based on an adaptive Kalman filter approach. Using the outputs from the first stage as well as other variables directly from APC data, the second stage is to predict BPL based on a support vector regression algorithm. Several methods from the existing literature are used as benchmarks to test the relative performance of the proposed method. An empirical study on bus line 1 in Suzhou, China shows that the proposed method outperforms all the benchmarks, and shows significant superiority over other methods for stops with sharp increases in BPL and for multi‐step ahead prediction. This study contributes to the limited literature on BPL prediction and lays the foundation for providing accurate and reliable predictive RTCI in the future.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
