Abstract

Rainfall events frequently disrupt the subway system, significantly impacting operational efficiency and service quality. It is challenging to measure and predict subway system resilience due to the different construction environments of subway stations. We develop an approach based on probabilistic modeling techniques to measure subway system and station resilience. Random forest is used to analyze the heterogeneity of resilience patterns from an environmental perspective. Based on wavelet decomposition and spatial–temporal networks, we design an ensemble neural network modeling framework considering environmental factors to predict system and station resilience. According to an analysis of a dataset from Harbin, China, subway system resilience decreases by 1/6 for every 10 mm increase in rainfall intensity when the rainfall is under 60 mm. 44.6 % of low-resilience stations are near roads at the Level of Service III and IV. The proposed prediction model outperforms the state-of-the-art models with a prediction accuracy of 96.82 %.
