Spatio‐temporal patterns of the impact of COVID‐19 on public transit: An exploratory analysis from Lyon, France
Published in Regional Science Policy & Practice, 2023
This paper focuses on the impact of COVID-19, as a large scale and long-term disruption, on public transport demand.

Spatio-temporal impacts of unplanned service disruptions on public transit demand
Published in Transportation Research and Interdisciplinary Perspectives, 2025
This paper shows the impact of metro disruptions on public transport demand. It uses a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) to cluster the disruptions relative to the intensity of their impact, and shows what attributes are the most representative of each class using a MultiNomial Logit (MNL)

Improving public transit demand forecasting models in case of disruptions: an integrated approach using explainable AI
Published:
This talk presents an integrated approach using a module for disruption detection (Random Forest) and a demand forecasting module (LSTM) to better assess mobility behaviours in the event of disruptions. [Video]
From econometrics to machine learning: Insights from transportation studies
Published:
Econometrics is the field of economics which intends to unveil the decision-making process of individuals and firms: econometricians use statistical tools aiming to understand people’s choices and predict their behaviours. Using case studies coming from the transportation field, I will present the main limitations of the traditional econometric approach and identify where machine learning can bridge the gap. [Slides]
