OASIS: Optimisation-based Activity Scheduling with Integrated Simultaneous choice dimensions

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

Activity-based models offer the potential of a far deeper understanding of daily mobility behaviour than trip-based models. However, activity-based models used both in research and practice have often relied on applying sequential choice models between sub ...

Enhancing discrete choice models with representation learning

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin

In discrete choice modeling (DCM), model misspecifications may lead to limited predictability and biased parameter estimates. In this paper, we propose a new approach for estimating choice models in which we divide the systematic part of the utility specif ...

On flow duration curve modelling in Alpine catchments

Ana Clara Pereira Barbosa Santos

Mountain regions are considered to be the natural "water towers" of the world due to their importance as sources of many rivers. Reliable tools to estimate the availability and variability of streamflows in such regions are still rare. In this context, the ...

Dealing with Correlations in Discrete Choice Models

Anna Fernández Antolín

The focus of this thesis is to develop methods to address research challenges related to correlation patterns in discrete choice models. In the context of correlations within alternatives, we extend the novel methodology of the multiple indicator solution ...

Discrete-continuous maximum likelihood for the estimation of nested logit models

Michel Bierlaire, Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Anna Fernández Antolín

In this paper we aim at integrating the selection of a nesting structure to the maximum likelihood framework of the parameter estimation. Given a finite set of nesting structures, the traditional approach is to estimate the models corresponding to each of ...

Beyond Allan Variance - GMWM Framework For Sensor Calibration

Jan Skaloud, Stéphane Guerrier

Proposed 50 years ago for studying stability of oscillators, Allan Variance (AV) was accepted by IEEE as a standard for characterizing behavior of sensors. However, the inverse mapping, i.e. the estimation of noise-parameters from Allan Variance is less st ...

Accurate Directional Inference for Vector Parameters in Linear Exponential Families

Anthony Christopher Davison

We consider inference on a vector-valued parameter of interest in a linear exponential family, in the presence of a finite-dimensional nuisance parameter. Based on higher-order asymptotic theory for likelihood, we propose a directional test whose p-value i ...

Approximate Message Passing With Consistent Parameter Estimation and Applications to Sparse Learning

Michaël Unser, Ulugbek Kamilov

We consider the estimation of an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) (possibly non-Gaussian) vector x is an element of R-n from measurements y is an element of R-m obtained by a general cascade model consisting of a known linear transform foll ...

Choice Probability Generating Functions

Michel Bierlaire

This paper considers discrete choice, with choice probabilities coming from maximization of preferences from a random utility field perturbed by additive location shifters (ARUM). Any ARUM can be characterized by a choice-probability generating function (C ...

New Challenges in Disaggregate Behavioral Modeling

Thomas Robin

This thesis tackles new challenges associated with the disaggregate modeling of the human behavior. Decision-aid tools help in making decisions, by providing quantitative insights on the decisions and associated consequences. They are useful in complex sit ...
