A novel approach is proposed to use the Cross Nested Logit (CNL) model in route choice when sampling of paths is considered. It adopts the Metropolis-Hasting algorithm to sample the choice sets for the model. A new expansion factor and an approximation method are put forward to calculate the sampled probabilities of alternatives. We build on state-of-the-art results for the Multivariate Extreme...

Considering that metro network expansion brings us with more alternative routes, it is attractive to integrate the impacts of routes set and the interdependency among alternative routes on route choice probability into route choice modeling. Therefore, the formulation, estimation and application of a constrained multinomial probit (CMNP) route choice model in the metro network are carried out i...

Probabilistic approach of traffic assignment has been primarily developed to provide a more realistic and flexible theoretical framework to represent traveler’s route choice behavior in a transportation network. The problem of path overlapping in network modelling has been one of the main issues to be tackled. Due to its flexible covariance structure, probit model can adequately address the pro...

This paper studies the dynamics of the traveler’s day-to-day route adjustment process in the general transportation network with fixed or elastic demand and homogeneous or heterogeneous users. Each traveler is assumed to adjust his/her route choice according to the excess travel cost between the instantaneous experienced travel cost and a certain referred level, which induces an aggregate path ...
