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

Nejc Geržinič, Oded Cats, Niels van Oort +3

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…

Robust discrete choice models with t-distributed kernel errors

Rico Krueger, Michel Bierlaire, Thomas Gasos +1

Outliers in discrete choice response data may result from misclassification and misreporting of the response variable and from choice behaviour that is inconsistent with modelling…

Bayesian Automatic Relevance Determination for Utility Function Specification in Discrete Choice Models

Filipe Rodrigues, Nicola Ortelli, Michel Bierlaire +1

Specifying utility functions is a key step towards applying the discrete choice framework for understanding the behaviour processes that govern user choices. However, identifying t…

Dimension Reduction for Origin-Destination Flow Estimation: Blind Estimation Made Possible

Jingyuan Xia, Wei Dai, John Polak +1

This paper studies the problem of estimating origin-destination (OD) flows from link flows. As the number of link flows is typically much less than that of OD flows, the inverse pr…

The robust single machine scheduling problem with uncertain release and processing times

Nitish Umang, Alan L. Erera, Michel Bierlaire

In this work, we study the single machine scheduling problem with uncertain release times and processing times of jobs. We adopt a robust scheduling approach, in which the measure…
