Analyzing how travelers choose scenic routes using route choice models
Finding a scenic route between two locations is a common trip planning task, in particular for tourists and recreational travelers. For the automated computation of a scenic route in a trip planning system it is necessary to identify which attributes of a route and its surroundings are associated with attractive scenery. This study uses a route choice model, more specifically a Path Size Logit ...
متن کاملReliable ABC model choice via random forests
MOTIVATION Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) methods provide an elaborate approach to Bayesian inference on complex models, including model choice. Both theoretical arguments and simulation experiments indicate, however, that model posterior probabilities may be poorly evaluated by standard ABC techniques. RESULTS We propose a novel approach based on a machine learning tool named random ...
متن کاملRoute Choice in Road Networks - Observing and Modelling Route Choice
Until now transport planners and modellers have little information on the actual route choice in road networks as route choice is difficult to observe. The paper presents various techniques for observing route choice (floating car data, mobile phone data, automatic number plate recognition systems, bluetooth detection) and shows results of route choice observations. Based on the analysis of the...
متن کاملOn improving route choice through learning automata
Urban mobility is a major challenge in modern societies. Increasing the infrastructure’s physical capacity has proven to be unsustainable from a socio-economical perspective. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) emerge in this context, aiming to make a more efficient use of existing road networks by means of new technologies. In this paper we address the route choice problem, in which drive...
متن کاملDiscrete Choice Elasticities for the Elderly and Disabled Traveler’s Choice between Fixed-route Transit and Paratransit
INTRODUCTION The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), passed in 1990, required that a specialized transit service be provided to serve disabled people within 3/4 of a mile of existing standard bus routes and light rail stations. Having such services available, elderly and disabled people have a unique mode choice decision that is not available for typical travelers: the choice between public ...
