600 million passenger cars worldwide (roughly one car per eleven people). 250 million passenger registered cars in the US. 806 million cars and light trucks on the road in 2007. Worldwide Flights 4.8 billion passengers 2014 Average trip length per passenger 1,393 km Worldwide Ground Trips ~588 billion trips per year ~Average trip distance 25km Image: D. Brockmann (NWU)

6 Different Centrality Measures of Streets in Venice 1.Closeness, 2.Betweenness centrality, 3.Straightness, 4.Information Closeness. Closeness measures to what extent a certain node is near all the other nodes in a system along the shortest path, more formally the inverse of cumulative distance required to reach from that node to all other nodes. Betweenness centrality Betweenness centrality is equal to the number of shortest paths from all vertices to all others that pass through that node Straightness. Straightness centrality measures the efficiency in the communication between two nodes in a system that increases when there is less deviation of their shortest path from the virtual straight line.

Finding and evaluating community structure in networks, M. E. J. Newman and M. Girvan, Phys. Rev. E 69, 026113 (2004). Betweenness centrality is an indicator of a node's centrality in a network. It is equal to the number of shortest paths from all vertices to all others that pass through that node. 1. Calculate betweenness scores for all edges in the network. 2. Find the edge with the highest score and remove it from the network. 3. Recalculate betweenness for all remaining edges. 4. Repeat from step 2.

e ii, the fraction of all edges in the network that link vertices in community i to vertices in this community which represent the fraction of edges that connect vertices in community i to vertices in community j. (in random structures ) Famous Newman Modularity metric Q compares the number of in-community edges to the edges in a random graph with the same number of nodes.

Mitigation of Congestion We can target few affected neighborhoods.
28
Mitigation of Congestion We find that when m=1%: Bay Area: δT reaches 26,210 minutes, corresponding to a 14% reduction of one hour morning commute (triangles in Fig. E). Boston Area: δT reaches 11,762 corresponding to 18% reduction of additional travel time during a one hour morning commute (diamonds in Fig. E)

Perturbation based model

Summary Spatial Networks properties have several applications: Communities of airports, road characteristics. There is a hierarchical network in the way neighborhoods connect to different streets: “Street popularity index”. Individuals can be clustered by their daily travel activities. A preferential attachment model can describe that heterogeneity of fluxes. A perturbation based model can describe the Burts and motifs of daily trips.
