主 题:Air traffic management Flight delay Latent class model Tensor decomposition
摘 要:In air traffic and airport management,experience gained from past operations is crucial in designing appropriate strategies when facing a new ***,this paper uses massive spatiotemporal flight data to identify similar traffic and delay patterns,which become critical for gaining a better understanding of the aviation system and relevant ***,as the datasets imply complex dependence and higher-order interactions between space and time,retrieving significant features and patterns can be very *** this paper,we propose a probabilistic framework for highdimensional historical flight *** apply a latent class model and demonstrate the effectiveness of this framework using air traffic data from 224 airports in China during 2014–*** find that profiles of each dimension can be clearly divided into various patterns representing different regular *** prove the effectiveness of these patterns,we then create an estimation model that provides preliminary judgment on the airport delay *** outcomes of this study can help airport operators and air traffic managers better understand air traffic and delay patterns according to the experience gained from historical scenarios.
