Multiplex networks are representations of multilayer interconnected complex networks where the nodes are the same at every layer. They turn out to be good abstractions of the intricate connectivity of multimodal transportation networks, among other types of complex systems. One of the most important critical phenomena arising in such networks is the emergence of congestion in transportation flo...

Navigating large, urban transportation networks is a complicated task. A user needs to negotiate the available modes of transportation, their schedules, and how they are interconnected. In this article we present a Natural Language interface for trip planning in complex, multimodal, urban transportation networks. Our objective is to provide robust understanding of complex requests while giving ...

The integration of heterogeneous transportation data and services is essential towards enabling multimodality. Many new services are emerging and gaining a lot of popularity but are still isolated from multimodal solutions such as ridesharing, bike sharing. These services tend to publish their data according to the principles of linked open data in order to allow this integration. However, exis...

This work is part of an ongoing effort to understand the dynamics of passenger loads in modern, multimodal transportation networks (TNs) and to mitigate the impact of perturbations. The challenge is that the percentage of passengers at any given point of the TN that have a certain destination, i.e. their distribution over different trip profiles, is unknown. We introduce a stochastic hybrid aut...

Hierarchical multimodal hub location problem is a cost-minimizing hub covering problem where two types of hubs and hub links, accounting for ground and air transportation, are to be established, while ensuring time-definite deliveries. We propose a mixed-integer programming formulation and perform a comprehensive sensitivity analysis on the Turkish network. We show that the locations of airport...
