The notion of time-space prisms has often been used in the context of describing activity-travel patterns of individuals. This paper presents a methodology for estimating the temporal vertices of time-space prisms using the stochastic frontier modeling technique. Observed trip starting and ending times are used as dependent variables and socio-economic characteristics and commute characteristics serve as independent variables. The models are found to offer plausible results indicating that temporal vertices of time-space prisms, though unobservable, can be estimated based on temporal characteristics of observed activity-travel patterns. Comparisons of stochastic frontier models of prism vertices and the distribution of prism vertices are presented using two activity data sets collected in the United States – San Francisco and Miami. Differences and similarities in temporal vertex locations are highlighted in the paper.

Decision trees and production rules, which are among the methods used in knowledge discovery and data mining, are applied in this study to investigate drivers' route choice behavior. These methods have an advantage over artificial neural networks, another data mining method often used in the analysis of travel behavior, that they facilitate the determination of the relationships between the explanatory variables and the choice. Specifically, the C4.5 algorithm, which produces a decision tree and a set of production rules from the tree, is applied in this study. Two surveys were carried out to collect data on drivers' route choice behavior between two alternative routes on expressway networks. The two data sets include the expected minimum, maximum and average travel times along each alternative route as indicated by the respondent, as well as his socio-demographic attributes. The results of the analyses suggest that different expected travel times influence route choice in different cases, and that a maximum or average travel time determines route choice in some cases regardless of other attributes. The results of a comparison analysis between the C4.5 algorithm and discrete choice models indicate the superior ability offered by the former in representing drivers' route choice.

A multi-station electric-vehicle (EV) sharing system has been in operation on an experimental basis in Kyoto, Japan. Members of the system can check out EVs at a station and return them at any station. To reduce the cost of system operation, EVs are not reallocated to stations by the operator. This feature, at the same time, may delimit the efficiency of the system because of the mismatch between the spatial distribution of the demand and the distribution of the EVs among the stations. We construct a simulation model of system operation, and configure the optimal management of the system using genetic algorithms, with the number of checkouts per vehicle set as the objective function to be maximized. The number of vehicles, parking capacity at each station and number of members are among the decision variables. The results suggest that the optimal number of EVs is about a half of the total number of parking stalls. This implies that the efficiency of the system does not necessarily improve as more EVs are introduced. Also, the results suggest that even if a new station is introduced into the system, the efficiency does not necessarily improve.

Constrained by the single-equation specification, traditional logit or probit models for traffic accident severities can only model one severity at a time. Single-equation models fails to account for the simultaneity of injury severity outcomes in multivehicle collisions. An attempt to account for this simultaneity is made by presenting a simultaneous logit model of endogenous interrelationships among injury severities in multivehicle collisions. Car-truck collision data in Washington State between 1990 and 1996 are used for a simultaneous binary logit model to determine the effects of various exogenous factors in the presence of injury simultaneity, and empirical comparisons with traditional single-equation logit models are also provided. The methodology presented provides for significant efficiency gain when correlation between injury severities is high and can easily be extended to multiple severity categories in multi-vehicle collisions. Empirically, it is also found that parameter estimates for key roadway design variables may vary greatly between a simultaneous logit and its single-equation counterparts. Another finding from this methodology is that preventive measures for head-on collisions, or enforcement of drunk-driving regulations among truck drivers, as well as limiting the occurrence of high-speed curve designs on truck routes, appear to be the most likely factors for significant potential savings in social costs from car-truck collisions.

The methodology for weighting endogenous samples is extended in this study and applied to a multi-dimensional choice-based sample and an enriched sample. It is shown that a unified weight exists for a sample obtained from a complex endogenous sampling scheme. Problems with conventional weighting methods for samples from endogenous sampling, such as roadside surveys, are pointed out and an improved weighting scheme is proposed. Coefficient estimates of discrete choice models with and without weights are compared, and the importance of applying appropriate weights and a valid covariance estimator is pointed out.

French government has implemented a periodical vehicle inspection program, which aims at maintaining proper functioning of the vehicle and ensuring the emissions control systems installed on the vehicle work properly. Also, an incentive program for scrapping old vehicles was introduced in 1994 through 1996 to promote the replacement of those vehicles with higher emissions by newer vehicles with lower emissions. A hazard-based duration model of household vehicle transaction behavior has been developed in this study to examine the effects of the inspection program and the grant for scrappage on vehicle transaction timing. The model is developed as a competing risks model assuming the following three types of competing risks: replacing one of the vehicles in the household fleet, disposing of one vehicle in the fleet, and acquiring one vehicle to add to the fleet. The empirical analysis is carried out using the panel data of French households' vehicle ownership from 1984 to 1998, obtained by the panel survey called Parc-Auto, which has been conducted by a French marketing firm, SOFRES, since 1976. The long panel observation period facilitates the introduction of macro-economic indicators into the model, enabling the analysis to distinguish the effects of policy measures from macro-economic factors. The empirical results indicate that the expected vehicle holding duration becomes 1.23 times longer under the inspection program than before the program commenced, given that the vehicle is replaced by another vehicle at the end of the holding duration; and that the conditional probability of replacing a vehicle aged 10 years and over becomes 1.19 times higher when the grant for scrappage is available.

Previous studies have examined injury severity of vehicle accidents in relation with human factors, vehicle type, highway design, and environmental conditions. Several types of statistical models of injury severity have been developed based on driver's injury in some studies, and on most severely injured occupant's severity in others. A bivariate ordered-response probit model of driver's and most severely injured passenger's severity in collisions with fixed objects is developed in this study. Exact severity of passenger is not necessarily observed, especially when only most severe injury of the accident and driver's injury are recorded in the police reports. To accommodate passenger severities as well, we explicitly develop a partial observability model of passengers' injury severity in multi-occupant vehicle. The model has consistent coefficients for the driver's severity between single-occupant vehicle and multiple-occupant vehicle accidents, and provides more efficient coefficient estimates by taking into account the common unobserved factors between driver's severity and passenger's severity. The results of the empirical analysis using 4-year statewide accident data in Washington State reveal the effects of driver's characteristics, vehicle attributes, types of objects, and environmental conditions on both driver's and passengers' injury severities, and that their severities have different elasticities to some of the risk factors.

A two-stage route recommendation system is developed. The system consists of the minimum cost path search stage and the route choice stage. Several routes are selected according to multiple additive cost functions in the former stage, and a recommendation route is chosen from among the selected routes according to another function capable of nonlinear manipulations in the latter stage. These functions are developed as neural networks. The effectiveness of the system is examined using an experimental data set.

Non-compensatory models of driver's choice on dynamic park and ride are developed and examined on the predictability in this study. One of the data mining tools, C4.5, is used to develop decision tree and production rules of driver's choice. The generated decision tree and production rules are compared with the semi-ordered lexicographic model developed in the preceding study. Compared are the similarity of the estimated decision making structures and the distribution of the segments not correctly represented by the models as well as goodness-of-fit and hit ratio. The comparison shows that the semi-ordered lexicographic model has a higher goodness-of-fit and hit ratio than models with data mining tools. The results also suggest that the models developed in this study represent different decision rules from, but have similar distributions of the segments not represented by the models with the semi-ordered lexicographic model. Empirically, the consistent results by models with data mining tools and the semi-ordered lexicographic model suggest that the parking congestion level in CBD has a significant effect on the choice behavior.

本研究では，我が国の自動車保有行動を規定する大きな要因の一つであると考えられる車検制度が世帯の自動車取り替え更新行動に及ぼす影響を明らかにするために，生存時間モデルを適用した自動車取り替え更新行動モデルを構築し，京都市で得られたパネルデータを用いた実証分析を行った．パラメータ推定の結果より， 保有自動車の買い替えや破棄を行う確率は車検までの期間が6ヶ月を切ると急激に増加することが示された．また，推定されたモデルを用いたシミュレーション分析の結果からは，車検費用の引き上げは保有台数に影響を与えることなく買い替えを早める効果がある一方で，車検期間の延長は保有自動車の破棄を遅らせ，保有台数の増加を招く可能性のあることが示された．
