Dynamic Traffic Equilibrium with Discrete/Continuous Econometric Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
A procedure is developed to simulate the spatial and temporal distribution of traffic flows on a simplified highway network for home-to-work commuter trips. The procedure is based on a discrete/ continuous econometric frq,mework in which travelers' choices of route and departure time are modeled. Equilibrium traffic flows are determined using the estimated econometric models in a classic supply/demand equilibrium. The potential usefulness of the approach is demonstrated through a number of simulation runs in which equilibrium traffic flows are determined under network capacity constraints and alternate signal timing strategies.

Identification and Estimation of Continuous Time Dynamic Discrete Choice Games
We consider the theoretical and econometric properties of a recently proposed class of continuous time dynamic games with discrete choices. This class of models has computationally-desirable properties and includes widely-used entry, exit, and investment games that underlie many applications in empirical industrial organization. First, we provide more general conditions for existence of equilib...
متن کاملA demand model with departure time choice for within-day dynamic traffic assignment
A within-day dynamic demand model is formulated, embodying, in addition to the classic generation, distribution and modal split stages, an actual demand model taking into account departure time choice. The work focuses on this last stage, represented through an extension of the discrete choice framework to a continuous choice set. The dynamic multimodal supply and equilibrium model based on imp...

This paper discusses a widely used discrete-time analog of dynamic continuous-time models. This analog can not be used for the estimation of models with fast adaption to shocks. This has been overlooked in the econometric literature. The engineering literature on the same subject is also discussed, which includes warnings against the estimation of fast models. The engineering literature is igno...
متن کاملOn Calibration and Application of Logit-Based Stochastic Traffic Assignment Models
There is a growing recognition that discrete choice models are capable of providing a more realistic picture of route choice behavior. In particular, influential factors other than travel time that are found to affect the choice of route trigger the application of random utility models in the route choice literature. This paper focuses on path-based, logit-type stochastic route choice models, i...
متن کاملEconometric analysis of linearized singular dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models
In this paper I propose an alternative to calibration of linearized singular dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models. Given an a-theoretical econometric model as a representative of the data generating process, I will construct an information measure which compares the conditional distribution of the econometric model variables with the corresponding singular conditional distribution of t...
