Abstract

En 中文
The public bicycle system (PBS) has become an essential complement to transit services and a popular choice for short trips. Despite this, there is limited research on the nonlinear relationships between the built environment and PBS usage, as well as the interaction effects among various built environment factors. This study investigates PBS usage in Taipei using the Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). The analysis reveals complex nonlinear relationships and threshold effects between built environment characteristics and PBS usage. Notably, land use mix emerges as a key factor, while distance to the city center and proximity to public transportation also significantly impact PBS usage. Additionally, the study reveals intricate interaction effects among built environment features. These findings offer valuable insights for designing urban environments that better support cycling.
