 An Optimal Adaptive Routing Algorithm for Large-Scale Stochastic Time-Dependent Networks
 Developing the first optimal adaptive routing algorithm practical for real-life large networks that considers
complete time-wise and link-wise stochastic dependency.
 Applicable to large networks with improvements in realistic modeling features, memory, and runtime.
 Adaptive Route Choice Models: Specification, Choice Set Generation, and Estimation
 Design and implementation of computer algorithms for choice set generation in real-life large networks.
 Estimation of the first adaptive route choice model using revealed preference (RP) data, where travelers are
provided with real-time information.
 Latent-class, latent-choice, latent-path Policy Size Logit model - a multinomial logit (MNL) model adding a
term to the deterministic utility to correct for the overlapping among alternatives.
 Significant step towards building a more accurate traffic prediction model under real-time information.
 Case study is conducted in Stockholm, Sweden.
 Adaptive Route Choice Models Without Choice Set Generation: Specification and Estimation
 Design and implementation of computer algorithms for an adaptive route choice model with unrestricted
choice set, which consistently estimates parameters based on path observations through repeated link choice.
 Equivalent to a MNL form but with infinitely many alternatives.
