Estimating Elasticities of Car Travel Demand Using Pseudo-Panel Data

Demand Elasticities for Highway Travel

An elasticity summarizes a large amount of information in a single number. Levels and distribution of incomes, price levels of the specific good and of substitute and complementary goods, preferences and tastes, transaction costs, etc., can, ceteris paribus, affect the measured value of any particular demand-price elasticity. The elasticity concept normalizes for the measurement scales (e.g., p...

Alternative Techniques of Estimating Import Demand Elasticities

T H E desirability as wel l as the difficulty o f obtaining reliable estimates o f import demand elasticities is clearly demonstrated by the extensive literature on the subject during the last few decades. Interest i n price elasticities o f import demand originated in Marshall's [14] discussion o f the possibility o f a devaluation causing a deterioration rather than an improvement in the bala...

Travel Time Estimation Using Floating Car Data

This project explores the use of machine learning techniques to accurately predict travel times in city streets and highways using floating car data (location information of user vehicles on a road network). The aim of this report is twofold, first we present a general architecture of solving this problem, then present and evaluate few techniques on real floating car data gathered over a month ...
