Description

本発明は、駅の設備や列車の運行状況から得られる旅客データを利用した駅の混雑度合いを推定することができる駅混雑度推定システムに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a station congestion degree estimation system that can estimate the degree of congestion of a station using passenger data obtained from station facilities and train operation conditions.

従来の混雑度推定システムは、赤外線センサを利用して人間の検知や人数計測を行って混雑の度合いを推定している(例えば、特許文献1参照)。また、他の従来では、あらかじめ利用者1人につき1台ずつ保持させた携帯端末から出力される電波を受信することによって、滞留人数の計測を行っている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。   The conventional congestion degree estimation system estimates the degree of congestion by detecting humans and counting people using an infrared sensor (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In another conventional technique, the number of staying persons is measured by receiving radio waves output from a portable terminal that is held in advance by one user per user (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

従来の混雑推定システムでは、旅客が乗り降りする駅のような、不特定多数の旅客が移動する場所の場合、各旅客に対して個別の情報受発信装置を用意することは困難であり、現実的ではない。また、センサを利用した人数計測を行う場合には、駅構内のいたるところにセンサを設置する必要がある。さらに、駅構内では、駅外からの旅客流入や列車の到着などによって人の流れ(人数や方向)がリアルタイムに変わるため、情報受発信装置やセンサによる人数計測では、旅客の移動方向や将来的な人の流れを予測することは困難である。   In a conventional congestion estimation system, it is difficult to prepare an individual information transmission / reception device for each passenger in places where an unspecified number of passengers move, such as stations where passengers get on and off. is not. Moreover, when performing the number of persons measurement using a sensor, it is necessary to install a sensor in every place in a station premises. In addition, the flow of people (number of people and directions) changes in real time due to passenger inflows from outside the station and arrival of trains at the station premises. It is difficult to predict the flow of new people.

この発明は、上記のような問題点を解決するためになされたものであり、駅内を移動する不特定多数の旅客の人数を簡便に推測することができる駅混雑度推定システムを提供することを目的とするものである。   The present invention was made to solve the above-described problems, and provides a station congestion degree estimation system that can easily estimate the number of unspecified number of passengers moving in a station.

実施の形態1.
以下、この発明の実施の形態について説明する。図1はこの発明の実施の形態1による駅混雑度推定システムを説明するための図である。図において、本発明の駅混雑度推定システム1は、旅客が駅改札口2から入場し列車3の発着するホーム4a、4bから所望の列車3に乗車する駅5内における旅客の滞留人数を推定するものである。
Embodiment 1 FIG.
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining a station congestion degree estimation system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. In the figure, the station congestion estimation system 1 of the present invention estimates the number of passengers staying in the station 5 where the passenger enters the desired train 3 from the platforms 4a and 4b where the passenger enters from the ticket gate 2 and arrives and departs from the train 3. To do.

そして、駅混雑度推定システム1は、駅改札口2に設置されているたとえば自動改札機にて得られる情報から、旅客の自動改札機の通過時刻とともに人数をカウントし、駅5内への旅客の流入を検知する流入検出部6と、あらかじめ旅客が駅改札口2からホーム4a、4bに到達するまでに要する時間を平均到達時間t1として格納する平均到達時間格納部7と、各列車3の駅5の発車時刻の情報を格納する運行情報格納部8と、流入検出部6と、平均到達時間格納部7と、運行情報格納部8とから得られる各情報を用いて駅5内の滞留人数を推定する滞留人数推定部9とを備えている。   The station congestion degree estimation system 1 counts the number of passengers together with the passage time of the passenger's automatic ticket gate from the information obtained by, for example, an automatic ticket gate installed at the station ticket gate 2, and the passengers entering the station 5 An inflow detection unit 6 for detecting the inflow of the train, an average arrival time storage unit 7 for storing the time required for the passenger to reach the platforms 4a and 4b from the station ticket gate 2 in advance as an average arrival time t1, Stay in the station 5 using each information obtained from the operation information storage unit 8 for storing information of the departure time of the station 5, the inflow detection unit 6, the average arrival time storage unit 7, and the operation information storage unit 8. A staying number estimating unit 9 for estimating the number of persons is provided.

次に、上記のように構成された実施の形態1の駅混雑度推定システムの駅内の滞留人数の推定方法について説明する。まず、駅改札口2では流入してくる旅客の流入状況を時刻とともにカウントし、流入検出部6にて検出している。そして、駅改札口2から流入した旅客は平均到達時間t1を経た後、ホーム4a、4bに到達する。そして、ホーム4a、4bに到着した旅客はその後にホームに入ってきた、または到着している列車3に乗車する。よって、駅改札口2に列車3の発車時刻より平均到着時間t1より前に流入した旅客が、その列車3に乗車することができるものと判断する。   Next, a method for estimating the number of people staying in the station of the station congestion degree estimation system according to Embodiment 1 configured as described above will be described. First, at the station ticket gate 2, the inflow situation of the inflowing passenger is counted together with the time and detected by the inflow detection unit 6. And the passenger who flowed in from the station ticket gate 2 reaches the platforms 4a and 4b after an average arrival time t1. Then, the passengers who have arrived at the homes 4a and 4b get on the train 3 that has subsequently entered or has arrived at the home. Therefore, it is determined that a passenger who has flowed into the station ticket gate 2 before the average arrival time t1 from the departure time of the train 3 can board the train 3.

以上のような考えに基づいて、任意の時刻t2の駅5内の滞留人数を推定する場合について説明する。まず、滞留人数推定部9は、任意の時刻t2に平均到達時間t1を加算した時刻(t2+t1)=t3より前の時刻で、一番近い列車の発車時刻t4を運行情報格納部8から抽出する。次に、発車時刻t4の平均到達時間t1前の時刻(t4−t1)=t5から任意の時刻t2までに流入検出部6にて検出された旅客の流入人数を検出する。そして、この検出人数を任意の時刻t1の駅5内の滞留人数として推定する。   A case where the number of people staying in the station 5 at an arbitrary time t2 is estimated based on the above-described idea will be described. First, the staying person estimation unit 9 extracts the departure time t4 of the nearest train from the operation information storage unit 8 at a time before the time (t2 + t1) = t3 obtained by adding the average arrival time t1 to the arbitrary time t2. . Next, the inflow number of passengers detected by the inflow detection unit 6 from the time (t4−t1) = t5 before the average arrival time t1 of the departure time t4 to the arbitrary time t2 is detected. Then, this detected number of people is estimated as the number of people staying in the station 5 at an arbitrary time t1.

また、他の推定方法としては、任意の列車3の発車時刻t6と任意の列車3の発車時刻t6の次に発車する次任意の列車31(ここでは説明の便宜上”次任意の列車31”として説明する)の発車時刻t7との間に駅5内に滞留する滞留人数を推定する場合について説明する。まず、滞留人数推定部9は、運行情報格納部8から任意の列車3の発車時刻t6と任意の列車3の発車時刻t6の次に発車する次任意の列車31の発車時刻t7とを抽出する。次に、任意の列車3の発車時刻t6の平均到達時間t1前の時刻(t6−t1)=t8から次任意の列車31の発車時刻t7の平均到達時間t1前の時刻(t7−t1)=t9まで流入検出部6にて検出された旅客の流入人数を検出する。そして、この流入人数を任意の列車3から次任意の列車31までの駅5内の滞留人数として推定する。   In addition, as another estimation method, the next arbitrary train 31 that departs after the departure time t6 of the arbitrary train 3 and the departure time t6 of the arbitrary train 3 (here, as the “next arbitrary train 31” for convenience of explanation) A case will be described in which the number of people staying in the station 5 between the departure time t7 (explained) is estimated. First, the staying number estimating unit 9 extracts the departure time t6 of the arbitrary train 3 and the departure time t7 of the next arbitrary train 31 that departs after the departure time t6 of the arbitrary train 3 from the operation information storage unit 8. . Next, the time before the average arrival time t1 of the departure time t6 of any train 3 (t6-t1) = t8 before the average arrival time t1 of the departure time t7 of the next arbitrary train 31 (t7-t1) = The number of passengers inflow detected by the inflow detection unit 6 until t9 is detected. Then, the number of people inflow is estimated as the number of people staying in the station 5 from any train 3 to the next arbitrary train 31.

上記のように構成された実施の形態1の駅混雑度推定システムは、任意の時刻の駅内の旅客の滞留人数、および、任意の列車の発車時刻から次任意の列車の発車時刻までの駅内の旅客の滞留人数を簡便に推測することができる。よって、任意の時刻の駅内の人数を推定し、許容範囲の人数を超える場合には、駅員による駅内の整理を行ったり、駅内への流入を制限したりなどさまざなま対策をとることができる。また、任意の列車の発車時刻から次任意の列車の発車時刻までの駅内の旅客の人数を推定し、ダイヤ改正を行う際の参考として利用することなど様々なことへの利用が考えられる。   The station congestion degree estimation system according to Embodiment 1 configured as described above includes the number of passengers staying in a station at an arbitrary time, and a station from the departure time of an arbitrary train to the departure time of the next arbitrary train. The number of passengers staying inside can be easily estimated. Therefore, if the number of people in the station at any given time is estimated and the number of people exceeds the allowable range, various measures are taken such as organizing the station by station staff or restricting inflow into the station. be able to. In addition, it can be used for various purposes such as estimating the number of passengers in a station from the departure time of an arbitrary train to the departure time of the next arbitrary train, and using it as a reference when the schedule is revised.

実施の形態2.
図2はこの発明の実施の形態2による駅混雑度推定システムを説明するための図である。図において、本発明の駅混雑度推定システム100は、多数の旅客が駅改札口2から入場し列車3の発着するホーム4a、4bから各旅客が所望の列車3に乗車する駅5内における旅客の滞留人数を推定するものである。
Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining a station congestion degree estimation system according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In the figure, a station congestion degree estimation system 100 according to the present invention includes a passenger in a station 5 where a large number of passengers enter from a station ticket gate 2 and each passenger gets on a desired train 3 from platforms 4a and 4b where trains 3 arrive and depart. The number of people staying in is estimated.

そして、駅混雑度推定システム100は、以下のものにて構成されている。ただし、上記実施の形態1と同様の部分は同一符号を付して説明を省略する。駅改札口2に設置されているたとえば自動改札機にて得られる情報を、旅客の自動改札機の通過時刻とともに駅改札口2における旅客の流入・流出として検知する流入流出検出部10と、列車の駅の発車時刻および到着時刻の情報を格納する運行情報格納部80と、任意の列車3が駅5に到着する前の車両重量を重量センサ11から検出し、この車両重量から任意の列車3内の到着前旅客数(X1)を検出する第1の検出部12とを備える。   And the station congestion degree estimation system 100 is comprised with the following. However, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted. For example, an inflow / outflow detection unit 10 that detects information obtained by, for example, an automatic ticket gate installed at the station ticket gate 2 as passenger inflow / outflow at the station ticket gate 2 together with the passage time of the passenger's automatic ticket gate, The operation information storage unit 80 for storing information on the departure time and arrival time of the station and the vehicle weight before any train 3 arrives at the station 5 are detected from the weight sensor 11, and the arbitrary train 3 is detected from the vehicle weight. And a first detector 12 for detecting the number of passengers before arrival (X1).

さらに、任意の列車3が駅5を発車した後の車両重量を重量センサ11から検出し、この車両重量から任意の列車3内の出発後旅客数(X2)を検出する第2の検出部12と、任意の列車3の発車時刻t10を運行情報格納部80から抽出しこの発車時刻t10の平均到達時間t1前の時刻(t10−t1)=t11より後に流入流出検出部10にて検出された旅客の流入人数(Y1)を検出する第3の検出部14と、任意の列車3の到着時刻を運行情報格納部80から抽出しこの到着時刻t12の平均到達時間t1後の時刻(t12+t1)=t13より後に流入流出検出部10にて検出された旅客の流出人数(Y2)を検出する第4の検出部15と、各検出部12、13、14、15にて検出された各人数から任意の列車3の次に到着する列車までカウントし駅5内の滞留人数として推定する滞留人数推定部90とを備える。   Further, the second detector 12 detects the vehicle weight after the arbitrary train 3 leaves the station 5 from the weight sensor 11 and detects the number of passengers after departure (X2) in the arbitrary train 3 from the vehicle weight. The departure time t10 of any train 3 is extracted from the operation information storage unit 80 and detected by the inflow / outflow detection unit 10 after the time (t10−t1) = t11 before the average arrival time t1 of the departure time t10. A third detection unit 14 that detects the number of passengers inflow (Y1) and the arrival time of an arbitrary train 3 are extracted from the operation information storage unit 80, and the time after the average arrival time t1 of this arrival time t12 (t12 + t1) = A fourth detection unit 15 that detects the number of passengers flowing out (Y2) detected by the inflow / outflow detection unit 10 after t13, and any number of persons detected by the detection units 12, 13, 14, and 15 Arrives next to train 3 Count up the train to and a residence number estimating unit 90 for estimating the retention number in the station 5.

次に、上記のように構成された実施の形態2の駅混雑度推定システムの駅内の滞留人数の推定方法について説明する。上記実施の形態1では列車からの降車する人数を加味していなかったが、本実施の形態2においては列車から降車する人数を加味することができるものである。まず、駅改札口2では流入流出する旅客の流入流出状況を時刻とともにカウントし、流入流出検出部10にて検出している。そして、駅改札口2から流入した旅客は平均到達時間t1を経た後、ホーム4a、4bに到達する。そして、ホーム4a、4bに到着した旅客はその後にホームに入ってきた、または到着している列車3に乗車する。よって、駅改札口2に列車3の発車時刻より平均到着時間t1より前に流入した旅客がその列車3に乗車することができる。そして、列車3から降車した旅客はホーム4a、4bから平均到達時間t1を経た後、改札口2に到達する。よって、列車3の到着時刻の平均到達時間t1後の時刻より旅客は駅改札口2より流出する。   Next, a method for estimating the number of people staying in a station of the station congestion degree estimation system according to Embodiment 2 configured as described above will be described. In the first embodiment, the number of people getting off the train is not taken into account, but in the second embodiment, the number of people getting off the train can be taken into account. First, at the station ticket gate 2, the inflow / outflow situation of passengers flowing in / out is counted with time and detected by the inflow / outflow detection unit 10. And the passenger who flowed in from the station ticket gate 2 reaches the platforms 4a and 4b after an average arrival time t1. Then, the passengers who have arrived at the homes 4a and 4b get on the train 3 that has subsequently entered or has arrived at the home. Therefore, a passenger who flows into the station ticket gate 2 before the average arrival time t1 from the departure time of the train 3 can get on the train 3. And the passenger who got off from the train 3 reaches the ticket gate 2 after passing the average arrival time t1 from the homes 4a and 4b. Therefore, the passenger flows out from the station ticket gate 2 from the time after the average arrival time t1 of the arrival time of the train 3.

以上のような考えに基づいて、任意の列車3の次に到着する列車までの駅5内の滞留人数を推定する場合について説明する。まず、第1の検出部12にて列車3が駅5に到着する前の列車重量を重量センサ11から検出し、この車両重量から任意の列車3内の到着前旅客数(X1)を検出する。一般的な車両には、その車両のブレーキの制御を行うために重量センサ11を備えており、その重量センサ11の検出値を車両外に送信することができる機能を付加するだけでよい。そして、その重量センサ11の車両重量の値から車両の本体の重量を差し引いて、旅客1人の平均体重で割ることにより、列車内の旅客人数を容易に算出することができる。   Based on the above idea, the case where the number of people staying in the station 5 up to the train arriving next to any train 3 is estimated will be described. First, the first detection unit 12 detects the train weight before the train 3 arrives at the station 5 from the weight sensor 11, and detects the number of passengers before arrival (X1) in any train 3 from the vehicle weight. . A general vehicle is provided with a weight sensor 11 for controlling the brake of the vehicle, and it is only necessary to add a function capable of transmitting the detection value of the weight sensor 11 to the outside of the vehicle. Then, the number of passengers in the train can be easily calculated by subtracting the weight of the vehicle body from the vehicle weight value of the weight sensor 11 and dividing the result by the average weight of one passenger.

そして、第2の検出部13にて任意の列車3が駅5を発車した後の車両重量を重量センサ11から検出し、この車両重量から任意の列車3内の出発後旅客数(X2)を検出する。次に、第3の検出部14にて任意の列車3の発車時刻t10を運行情報格納部80から抽出しこの発車時刻t10の平均到達時間t1前の時刻(t10−t1)=t11より後に流入流出検出部10にて検出された旅客の流入人数(Y1)を検出する。次に、任意の列車3の到着時刻t12を運行情報格納部80から抽出しこの到着時刻t12の平均到達時間t1後の時刻(t12+t1)=t13より後に流入流出検出部10にて検出された旅客の流出人数(Y2)を検出する。   And the vehicle weight after the arbitrary train 3 departs from the station 5 is detected from the weight sensor 11 by the second detector 13, and the number of passengers after departure (X2) in the arbitrary train 3 is determined from this vehicle weight. To detect. Next, the departure time t10 of an arbitrary train 3 is extracted from the operation information storage unit 80 by the third detection unit 14, and flows after the time (t10−t1) = t11 before the average arrival time t1 of the departure time t10. The number of inflow passengers (Y1) detected by the outflow detection unit 10 is detected. Next, the arrival time t12 of any train 3 is extracted from the operation information storage unit 80, and the passenger detected by the inflow / outflow detection unit 10 after the time (t12 + t1) = t13 after the average arrival time t1 of the arrival time t12. The number of outflows (Y2) is detected.

そして、滞留人数推定部90は各検出部12、13、14、15にて検出された各人数から任意の列車3の次に到着する列車までカウントし駅5内の滞留人数を、列車内の到着前旅客数(X1)+旅客の流入人数(Y1)−列車内の出発後旅客数(X2)−旅客の流出人数(Y2)の各値に当てはめて算出して推定する。   Then, the staying number estimating unit 90 counts the number of staying persons in the station 5 from the number of persons detected by each of the detection parts 12, 13, 14, and 15 to the train arriving next to the arbitrary train 3 It is estimated by applying to each value of the number of passengers before arrival (X1) + the number of passengers flowing in (Y1) −the number of passengers after departure in the train (X2) −the number of passengers flowing out (Y2).

上記のように構成された実施の形態2の駅混雑度推定システムは、列車の車両重量から人数を検出し、その列車の流出人数を加味することができるため駅内の滞留人数を上記実施の形態1より正確に推定することができる。よって、その推定人数により、駅員はより一層的確な判断を行うことができる。   The station congestion degree estimation system according to the second embodiment configured as described above can detect the number of people from the vehicle weight of the train and take the number of outflows of the train into account. It can be estimated more accurately than Form 1. Therefore, the station staff can make a more accurate judgment based on the estimated number of persons.

実施の形態3.
上記各実施の形態における駅混雑度推定システムでは、旅客の移動方向などを考慮することなく滞留人数を推定する例を示したがこれに限られることはなく。例えば、旅客の乗車券の行き先情報を入手する行き先情報入手部と、旅客の行き先情報より旅客が乗車する所望の列車を特定する特定部とを備え、上記各実施の形態にて示した滞留人数推定部において、旅客は特定部にて特定された列車に乗車し、列車の発車時刻までは駅構内に滞在することとして滞留人数を推定するようにしてもよい。
Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the station congestion degree estimation system in each of the above embodiments, an example is shown in which the number of staying persons is estimated without considering the direction of travel of the passengers, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the number of staying persons shown in each of the above embodiments, including a destination information obtaining unit that obtains destination information of a passenger's ticket, and a specifying unit that identifies a desired train on which the passenger gets on the passenger's destination information. In the estimating unit, the passenger may get on the train specified by the specifying unit, and estimate the number of staying persons as staying in the station until the departure time of the train.

この場合、行き先情報入手部は駅改札口に設置されている自動改札機などを通過する旅客の乗車券により容易にその行き先情報を得ることができる。そしてこのようにして得た情報により、例えばホームが2つあり、行き先がA方向とB方向とが存在する場合、その行き先情報によりその旅客がいずれの列車に乗車するかを特定することができる。このような情報から、例えば時間帯に応じてA方向とB方向とに向かう旅客の割合をあらかじめ算出しておく。そして、滞留人数推定部はその推定の際にその列車の行き先(例えばA方向の場合)に応じて、その時間帯に流入した旅客の人数の一定の割合(例えばA方向に向かうと推定される旅客の割合分を考慮に入れ、他の人数はB方向に行く為すべてが駅5内に滞留するとして判断する)を加味して滞留人数の推定を行う。   In this case, the destination information obtaining unit can easily obtain the destination information from the passenger ticket passing through an automatic ticket gate installed at the station ticket gate. For example, when there are two homes and the destinations are the A direction and the B direction, it is possible to specify which train the passenger gets on the destination information based on the information obtained in this way. . From such information, for example, the proportion of passengers heading in the A direction and the B direction according to the time zone is calculated in advance. Then, the staying number estimating unit estimates that a certain percentage of the number of passengers flowing in that time zone (for example, heading in the A direction) according to the destination of the train (for example, in the case of the A direction) at the time of the estimation. Taking into account the proportion of passengers, other people go in the direction B, so that all people stay in the station 5 are taken into account) to estimate the number of people staying.

また他の方法としては、特定部にて検出された旅客の行き先情報を、滞留人数推定部が流入人数にリアルタイムに反映して、その時点における滞留人数に加算するか否かを判断して加味し推定する方法が考えられる。   As another method, the destination information of the passenger detected by the specific unit is reflected on the inflowing number of people in real time and is added to the number of staying at that time. Then, a method of estimating can be considered.

上記のように構成された実施の形態3の駅混雑度推定システムは、旅客の行き先などの情報を滞留人数の推定に加味することができるので、上記各実施の形態より一層正確な滞留人数の推定を行うことができる。よって、その推定人数により、駅員はより一層的確な判断を行うことができる。   The station congestion estimation system according to the third embodiment configured as described above can add information such as the destination of the passenger to the estimation of the number of staying persons. Estimation can be performed. Therefore, the station staff can make a more accurate judgment based on the estimated number of persons.

尚、上記各実施の形態において、平均到着時間は一定の場合について説明したが、これに限られることはなく、平均到達時間格納部は、滞留人数推定部にて推定された旅客滞留人数を抽出し旅客滞留人数に応じて平均到達時間を再決定するように構成すれば、より一層現実的推定人数を得ることができる。すなわち、滞留人数推定部にて滞留人数が多くなれば、駅内が混雑していると考えられ、平均到達時間も混雑していない場合よりかかり、また逆に、駅内がすいていると考えられる場合には平均到達時間も混雑している場合よりかからないからである。また、さらにこの平均到達時間を簡素化して推定する場合には、平均到着時間を0として推定する方法も考えられる。   In each of the above embodiments, the case where the average arrival time is constant has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the average arrival time storage unit extracts the passenger staying number of people estimated by the staying number estimating unit. If the average arrival time is re-determined according to the passenger staying number, a more realistic estimated number can be obtained. In other words, if the number of people staying in the staying number estimation unit increases, it is considered that the station is congested, the average arrival time is longer than when it is not congested, and conversely, the station is congested. This is because it takes less time to reach the average arrival time. Further, when the average arrival time is further simplified and estimated, a method of estimating the average arrival time as 0 can be considered.

また、上記各実施の形態においては、列車の運行の遅延については特に示していないが、当然のことながら運行状況収納部は、列車運行の遅延情報を格納し、その遅延情報に応じた発車時刻および到着時刻から推定を行うように設定してもよい。   Moreover, in each said embodiment, although it does not show in particular about the delay of a train operation, naturally the operation condition storage part stores the delay information of a train operation, and the departure time according to the delay information Further, it may be set to perform estimation from the arrival time.
