A real-time prediction model of dispatching form based on BP Neural network

Neural network is a kind of method of artificial intelligent (AI), which can simulate undefined, complex nonlinear systems. So, it is fit for the real-time dispatching. In the paper, a real-time prediction model of dispatching form based on BP network is developed after the description of the structure and algorithm of BP network. The input vectors of the real time dispatching prediction model are stop passenger volumes of previous time intervals. The output vector is the different dispatching form such as formal, express, interval and deadhead etc.
