Regression Analysis from Wi-Fi Packet Sensor Measured Value to Actual Value

Analysis of Visitor Flow by Using Wi-Fi Packet Sensor

Abstract

The article is to verify the regression analysis between actual number of visitors and the　measured values of the Wi-Fi packet sensor, aims to provide a simple and versatile method to　estimate the actual number of visitors in urban tourist area. The verification was done for　visitors in Yokohama Minato Mirai 21 visitoring spots. Actual visitor numbers were obtained　through investigator’s manual count, which was fitted with the values from Wi-Fi packet sensor　by using regression analysis method. The result shows that the significance F value of all　regression equations and the p-value of the regression coefficient of the measured value x are　less than 0.01 (p <0.01), and the regression equations of the actual observed values are　significant at the 0.01 level.
