A dynamic discrete-continuous choice model of car ownership, usage and fuel type

Michel Bierlaire, Aurélie Glerum, Emma Frejinger

We formulate a dynamic discrete-continuous choice model (DDCCM) of car ownership, usage and fuel type. The framework embeds a discrete-continuous choice model (DCCM) into a dynamic programming (DP) framework to account for the forward-looking behavior of h ...

Modeling car ownership and usage: a dynamic discrete-continuous choice modeling approach

Michel Bierlaire, Aurélie Glerum, Emma Frejinger

In this research we specify a dynamic discrete-continuous choice model (DDCCM) of car ownership and usage. This model embeds a discrete-continuous choice model into a dynamic programming (DP) framework. The DDCCM allows to jointly model the transaction typ ...

Optimizing Fueling Decisions for Locomotives in Railroad Networks

Michel Bierlaire, Prem Kumar

Even though rail transportation is one of the most fuel efficient forms of surface transportation, fueling costs are one of the highest operating cost head for railroad companies. In US, unlike Europe, fueling costs are indeed, by far, the single highest o ...
