Modeling route choice behavior is problematic, but essential to appraise travelers' perceptions of route characteristics, to forecast travelers' behavior under hypothetical scenarios, to predict future traffic conditions on transportation networks and to understand travelers' reaction and...

At present, there appears to be no qualitative dependent model that can simultaneously account for data sets in which the variable of interest is potentially ordered but also has strong heterogeneity of the observed outcomes. This heterogeneity of particular outcomes, inherently attracts...

Background: User fees, transportation costs, and time costs impair access to healthcare by rural communities in low and middle income countries. However, effects of time costs on demand for healthcare are less understood than effects of user fees for health providers. In addition, prospective...

The discrete choice literature has evolved from the analysis of a choice of a single item from a fixed choice set to the incorporation of a vast array of more complex representations of preferences and choice set formation processes into choice models. Modern discrete choice models include rich...

The implementation of a theoretically sound, two-stage discrete-choice modelling paradigm incorporating probabilistic choice sets is impractical when the number of alternatives is large, which is a typical case in most spatial choice contexts. In the context of residential location choice,...

Residential location search has become an important topic to both practitioners and researchers as more detailed and disaggregate land-use and transportation demand models are developed which require information on individual household location decisions. The housing search process starts with...
