A Review of Activity-based Disaggregate Travel Demand Models

Michel Bierlaire, Negar Rezvany, Marija Kukic

This paper reviews the literature on disaggregated travel demand models from a choice perspective, focusing on activity-based models (ABMs) and synthetic population generators as example approaches to capture these choice dimensions. We discuss the links b ...

Light electric vehicle sharing systems: Functional design of a comprehensive decision making solution

Michel Bierlaire, Nikola Obrenovic, Selin Ataç

The functional design of a decision support system for a state-of-the-art vehicle sharing system (VSS) inevitably includes the selection or definition of methodologies for planning and managing the observed VSS. In this paper, our focus is on an innovative ...

A Spatial Branch and Bound Algorithm for Continuous Pricing with Advanced Discrete Choice Demand Modeling

Michel Bierlaire

In this paper, we present a spatial branch and bound algorithm to tackle the continuous pricing problem, where demand is captured by an advanced discrete choice model (DCM). Advanced DCMs, like mixed logit or latent class models, are capable of modeling de ...

OASIS: Optimisation-based Activity Scheduling with Integrated Simultaneous choice dimensions

Michel Bierlaire, Janody Pougala, Timothy Michael Hillel

Activity-based models offer the potential of a far deeper understanding of daily mobility behaviour than trip-based models. However, activity-based models used both in research and practice have often relied on applying sequential choice models between sub ...

An instance-based learning approach for evaluating the perception of ride-hailing waiting time variability

Michel Bierlaire, Nejc Gerzinic

Understanding user’s perception of service variability is essential to discern their overall perception of any type of (transport) service. We study the perception of waiting time variability for ride-hailing services. We carried out a stated preference su ...

Divide-and-conquer one-step simulator for the generation of synthetic households

Michel Bierlaire, Marija Kukic

This paper presents a novel simulation approach for generating synthetic households, addressing several literature gaps from the methodological viewpoint. The generation of hierarchical datasets such as complete households is challenging since it must guar ...

Stochastic adaptive resampling for the estimation of discrete choice models

Michel Bierlaire, Nicola Marco Ortelli, Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent

In the field of choice modeling, the availability of ever-larger datasets has the potential to significantly expand our understanding of human behavior, but this prospect is limited by the poor scalability of discrete choice models (DCMs): as sample sizes ...

Simulating intra-household interactions for in- and out-of-home activity scheduling

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Negar Rezvany

Various interactions, time arrangements, and constraints exist for individuals scheduling their day as a member of a household, which affect their in-home as well as out-of-home activity schedule. However, the existing activity-based models are mostly base ...

Sampling of alternatives in migration aspiration models

Michel Bierlaire, Evangelos Paschalidis

The use of discrete choice models (DCMs) is a regular approach to investigating migration aspirations concerning destination choices. However, given the complex substitution patterns between destinations, more advanced model specifications than the multino ...
