Abstract:
Mode choice models have, in the past, been disaggregated by a range of work and personal trip purposes. Linear expressions have been developed describing the utility or generalised cost of each transport mode option within each trip purpose category. With improving data collection, storage and processing facilities, highly disaggregate models are finding wider application in mode choice modelling. Disaggregate mode choice models developed thus far have not explicitly defined visitor mode choice and have therefore assumed that visitors' mode choice characteristics are similar to those of res

Abstract:
TRANSIMS is a disaggregate, behavioral transportation planning package developed under US DOT's and EPA funding at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). It is an integrated system of travel forecasting models designed to give transportation planners accurate, complete information on traffic impacts, congestion, and pollution by simulating second-by-second movements of every person and every vehicle through the transportation network of a large metropolitan area. There is no built-in module for travellers' mode choices In TRANSIMS. The modes going with the shortest path are always taken. I

Abstract:
The general aim of this thesis was to investigate affective forecasting in the context of public transport. Paper I, Study 1 revealed that non-users of public transport were less satisfied with the services than users. It was hypothesised that non-users were biased in their satisfaction ratings, a claim that was subsequently investigated in Paper I, Study 2, where a field experiment revealed that car users suffer from an impact bias, due to being more satisfied with the services after a trial period than they predicted they would be.

This thesis contributes to the literature on the choice of transport mode for commuting trips, with special focus on the difference between urban and rural commuting in Scotland. The thesis begins by giving an overview of discrete choice theory and some empirical models consistent with this theory, before reviewing the literature on empirical applications of mode choice models for commuting trips. In the following, multinomial, nested and mixed logit models using data from a survey of commuters in the University of St Andrews are developed. The models are used to estimate aggregate mode-choice

Artificial intelligence techniques have produced excellent results in many diverse fields of engineering. Techniques such as neural networks and fuzzy systems have found their way into transportation engineering. In recent years, neural networks are being used instead of regression techniques for travel demand forecasting purposes. The basic reason lies in the fact that neural networks are able to capture complex relationships and learn from examples and also able to adapt when new data become available.

Abstract:
Transport planning relies extensively on forecasts of traveller behaviour over horizons of 20 years and more. Implicit in such forecasts is the assumption that travellers tastes, as represented by the behavioural model parameters, are constant over time. This assumption is referred to as the temporal transferability of the models. This thesis presents four main contributions in this area. First, a comprehensive review of the transferability literature in the context of the temporal transferability of mode-destination models.

In contrast, the "positive utility of travel" (PUT) concept suggests that travel may not be inherently disliked and could instead provide benefits or be motivated by desires for travel-based multitasking, positive emotions, or fulfillment.

碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>交通管理學系碩博士班<br>90<br>This paper aims to look for reasonable and reflective of travelers behavior in the highway passenger transport market from an aspect of endogenous choice set generation. Basing on this mode choice preference, we can assist the highway passenger transport proprietors in marketing strategy. In this research, we can understand travelers’ conscious of service that highway passenger transport proprietors provide. Basing on this conscious of service, we can construct individual choice models under different definitions of choice set. We constructed several models

Abstract:
The relationship between monthly transit pass ownership and home-work trip mode choice in the Greater Toronto Area was explored using a logit formulation. A Nested Logit model was specified with the primary mode (non-motorised, auto, transit, or auto access to transit) in the upper level and the pass ownership in the lower transit nests. Inclusive value parameters confirm the chosen structure, and a range of policy sensitive, statistically significant parameters having expected signs and magnitudes reveal differences between socio-economic characteristics of pass holders and non-pass holders

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>交通運輸研究所<br>87<br>Discrete choice model has been widely used in transportation and other fields. The multinomial logit (MNL) model, most used discrete choice models due to its mathematical structure and ease of estimation, has the independence of irrelevant alternative (IIA) property which limits its applicability in many cases. The most widely known relaxation of the IIA property is the nested logit (NL) model which allows interdependence between pairs of alternatives in common groups. However, the restriction on equality of dependence between all pairs of alternatives in a
