  • Guide signs in subways play an important role in guiding pedestrians during their travel. Many guides are disorderly set up and overloaded with information, resulting in a low cognitive rate. This paper takes pedestrian cognition laws as a starting point and designs indoor cognitive experiments for the forgetting laws of immediate memory and short-term memory of pedestrians to enable pedestrians to obtain information from guide signs more efficiently. The instantaneous memory capacity of identifying different block numbers is studied by dividing the guide identification information into blocks. Brown-Peterson method is used to study the information forgetting law in short-term memory.The results show that the immediate memory of pedestrians in 3 seconds is 4±1 information chunk, and pedestrians can keep information memory for 15-20 s without retelling. By the tracking test of pedestrians at the transfer station of Xi'an Metro Line 2 and Line 3 at Xiaozhai Station, the characteristics of pedestrians' behaviors are observed, with problems existing in the setting of guide signs analyzed. The results are consistent with indoor cognitive experiments, which verify the experiments.
