Overall Research Project Description | Origin-destination (OD) demand matrices are crucial for transit agencies to design and operate transit systems. We want to build a Bayesian model to estimate transit OD matrices from bus occupancy data. A similar study to estimate OD using boarding/alighting counts is here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.04742 |
Research Tasks | Derive a Bayesian model to estimate transit OD matrices from bus occupancy data. A similar study is here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.04742 |
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: | Interested in this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.04742 Taken a statistics course and understand Bayes' theorem required. |
Mentoring Philosophy | My mentoring philosophy revolves around collaboration and mutual support. We learn best when we learn together, sharing knowledge and experiences. Flexibility is key to adapting to individual needs, yet maintaining productivity through clear goals and feedback. Together, we cultivate a culture of growth, empowerment, and achievement. |
