This paper presents an alternative to Random Utility-Maximization models of travel choice. Our Random Regret-Minimization model is rooted in Regret Theory and provides several useful features for travel demand analysis. Firstly, it allows for the possibility that choices between travel...

Behavioral models of the perceived value of travel information are developed that take into account satisficing as well as maximizing behavior, and are suitable for the evaluation of information acquisition for alternative generation as well as assessment. This is done by integrating notions of...

This paper describes the conceptual development, operatonalization and empirical testing of : A Learning-based Transportation Oriented Simulation System. This activity-based model of activity-travel behavior is derived from theories of choice heuristics that consumers apply when making decisions...

In this paper, we develop a model of activity generation for a multi-day planning period that takes within-household interactions between individuals into account. The model is based on the theoretical framework we proposed in earlier work which assumes that utilities of activities are a dynamic...

In this paper we develop and explore an approach to estimate dynamic models of activity generation on one-day travel-diary data. Dynamic models predict multi-day activity patterns of individuals taking into account dynamic needs as well as day-varying preferences and time-budgets. We formulate...

Joint social activities, in particular those outside households, are currently ignored or modeled very simply in transport models, despite these sorts of activities contributing to a significant amount of travel. We describe an experimental model of social activities, in which individuals...

Rule-based models, such as decision trees, are ideally suited to represent discontinuous effects of independent variables on discrete choice behavior in transport or spatial systems. At the same time, however, the models require that continuous attributes, such as for example travel time and...
