This study investigates the self-loop phenomenon in bike-sharing systems, where bikes are repeatedly returned to the same station, affecting equity in accessing services. A spatial autoregressive model and double machine learning framework are used to analyze socioeconomic features and geospatial location’s impact on self-loop intensity at metro stations and street scales. The results show that residential land use is positively associated with self-loop intensity, particularly among middle-aged residents with high fixed employment and low car ownership. The study also highlights the importance of multimodal public transit conditions.

Bike-sharing is a way to get around without using cars. But sometimes, people return bikes to the same place over and over again, making it hard for others to use the service. This study looked at why this happens and how it affects different neighborhoods. They used special computer models to see how things like where people live and work affect whether they tend to return bikes or not. The results showed that areas with more apartments and fewer cars have a higher chance of having bikes returned repeatedly. Overall, the study suggests that bike-sharing systems should make sure there are enough bikes in neighborhoods with good public transportation.
