Route choice models and smart phone data

Sponsor: Swiss National Science Foundation

Team: Michel Bierlaire (PI), Jingmin Chen (PM), Jingmin Chen

Period: October 01, 2010-September 30, 2013

Smart phones are able to collect a great wealth of information about the mobility patterns of individuals, including their itinerary. In addition to GPS tracks, smart phones contain several sensors and software revealing various aspects of the user's behavior (nearby Bluetooth devices, WiFi antenna, media players, etc.) Route choice models rely on the knowledge of the origin and the destination of the trip, and the transportation mode. They may also benefit from other contextual data, such as the trip purpose or the chain of subsequent activities. We plan to investigate how to infer this information from the smart phone data.

Disaggregate behavioral models exploiting data from Nokia devices

Sponsor: Nokia Research Center

Team: Michel Bierlaire (PI), Jeffrey Newman (PM), Jingmin Chen

Period: December 01, 2008-June 30, 2010

The projects aims at investigating how to perform an appropriate fusion of data from smartphones in order to predict the mobility behavior of a given individual.
