Evaluating the Connectivity and Imbalance Contribution of New Sections towards Highway Network: A Complex Network Perspective
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The evaluation of the impacts of new sections on the highway network is an essential aspect of the feasibility study. Existing studies predominantly concentrated on engineering-oriented feasibility assessments, often overlooking their potential effects on parallel sections and the overall network. In this research, we present an evaluation model for new sections based on complex networks, focusing on the connectivity and imbalance of transportation networks. This model serves as a supplementary approach for enhancing the feasibility analysis of new highway projects. The model comprises three distinct modules, namely, complex network, eigenvalue, and evaluation. Therein, the complex network provides diverse attributes for sections with the dynamic edge weights. Moreover, probability betweenness centrality and volume betweenness centrality have been presented as an eigenvalue of sections based on the multilayer complex network. Furthermore, the connectivity evaluation based on the eigenvalue and the imbalance evaluation based on the entropy and Gini coefficient are conducted. Through the case study, the results of the model demonstrate the connectivity and imbalance contribution of new sections and provide a novel perspective for the feasibility study.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
