摘要

There are daily struggles for Bangladeshi citizens with an inefficient transportation system, but the experiences of university teachers and students are less researched. This study anticipates and investigates the major influencing factors on their commuting experience through novel machine learning-based feature selection and classification techniques. A systematic survey of 1,102 students of eight universities generated a tailored dataset, which was then analyzed with 16 feature selection methods (e.g., Fisher’s Score, Chi-square, L1/L2 regularization, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization) and 15 classifiers (e.g., SVM, Random Forest, XGBoost, CatBoost, LGBM). Results indicate that 55.17% of the participants expressed dissatisfaction, and the most powerful drivers of dissatisfaction were found to be vehicle safety and social security. Non-linear SVM’s Fisher’s Score worked the best, and L2 Regularization happened the most frequently. Feature selection at higher levels greatly improved classification outcomes, highlighting its role in transport-oriented ML studies. Dataset and code are publicly accessible at https://kaggle.com/datasets/07e3786de7705329abd4ea9f2180271c278344ef759f26b188f48a1a951e501f and https://github.com/NahulRahman/Transport_Feature_Selection.
