Typical daily decision-making process of individuals regarding use of transport system involves mainly three types of decisions: mode choice, departure time choice and route choice. This paper focuses on the mode and departure time choice processes and stu ...
This paper presents a new paradigm for choice set generation in the context of route choice. We assume that the choice sets contain all paths connecting each origin-destination pair. These sets are in general impossible to generate explicitly. Therefore, w ...
We consider models of N interacting objects, where the interaction is via a common resource and the distribution of states of all objects. We introduce the key scaling concept of intensity; informally, the expected number of transitions per object per time ...
Discrete choice models in general and random utility models in particular may be intractable when the number of alternatives is large. In the transportation context, it typically happens for route choice and destination choice models. In the specific case ...
We present behavioral models designed to capture the response of drivers to real-time traffic information. In 2003, we have conducted a survey in Switzerland in order to collect both Revealed Preferences (RP) and Stated Preferences (SP) about choice decisi ...
When using random utility models for a route choice problem, choice set generation and correlation among alternatives are two issues that make the modeling complex. In this paper we discuss different models capturing path overlap. First, we analyze several ...
In the presence of choice-based sampling strategies for data collection, the property of Multinomial Logit (MNL) models, that consistent estimâtes of all parameters but the constants can be obtained from an Exogenous Sample Maximum Likelihood (ESML) estima ...
When using random utility models for a route choice problem, a critical issue is the significant correlation among alternatives. There are basically two types of models proposed in the literature to address it: (i) a deterministic correction of the path ut ...
Generalised extreme value models provide an interesting theoretical framework to develop closed-form random utility models. Unfortunately, few instances of this family are to be found as operational models in practice. The form of the model, based on a gen ...
When using random utility models for a route choice problem, choice set generation and correlation among alternatives are two issues that make the modelling complex. In this paper, we propose a modelling approach where the path overlap is captured with a s ...
