Travel Demand
Most transportation trips are derived demand Trips are a function of the activities that they serve
Some recreational transportation trips may not be derived demand
Demand can be induced when changes to infrastructure or services reduce the cost of transportation

The Four Step Model
Trip Generation Determine the number of person or vehicle trips to and from different land uses
in an analysis zone
Trip Distribution Predict origin-destination flows from zone to zone
Mode Choice Predict the share of users who will choose to travel using each available mode
Trip Assignment Allocate trips to specific routes

Trip Ends: Productions and Attractions
A production is a trip-end connected with a residential land use in a zone Estimated as a function of socieconomic characteristics of a zone or household
An attraction is a trip-end connected to a non-residential land use in a zone Estimated as a function of the availability and intensity of non-residential opportunities in
a zone

Normal Distribution
Normal distribution is symmetric about the mean
For a two-tailed distribution: 1 std. dev. : 68.3% of values
1.96 std. dev. : 95.0% of values
3 std. dev. : 99.7% of values
Z is the number of standard deviations corresponding to a specific confidence level
![Page 10: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Estimated vs. True Value
The values calculated using sample data provide only an estimate of the true mean and standard deviation
![Page 11: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Central Limit Theorem
For a large sample size, has approximately a normal distribution regardless of the shape of the distribution
![Page 12: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Standard Error of the Mean
The std. dev. of the sample mean (or standard error) is given by:
where N is the population size, n is the sample size, and σ2 is the population variance
For a single sample, the best estimate of the population variance is the sample variance
For large populations and small sample sizes, (N-n)/N approaches one, so:
![Page 13: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Estimating Sample Size
To estimate the required sample size for an infinite population, we rearrange the equation to:
Then, if necessary, we correct for finite population size:
′
′
1 ′
![Page 14: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sample Size Determination
Estimating sample size for a population parameter is a function of 3 variables Variability
Desired degree of precision
Population size
Sampling error can be reduced by increasing sample size
However, budget constraints may limit sample size
Must assume a best estimate sample variance (standard deviation)
*Except in surveys of very small populations, it is the number of observations in the sample, rather than the sample size as a percentage of the population, which determines the precision of the sample estimates.*
![Page 15: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Confidence Level and Confidence Interval
In order to determine the statistical validity of an estimate, we must first define the desired precision level The precision level is the degree of confidence(percent p) that the sampling
error of a produced estimate will fall within a desired range
The confidence level is often defined in terms of the level of significance,
α= (100-p)
We must also define the acceptable range of error of an estimate (x-μ) Absolute: a fixed number
Relative: defined as a percentage of the true value
![Page 16: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Standard Normal Distribution
In a standard normal distribution,μ= 0
σ= 1
The sample mean is distributed normally with parameters x and standard error( ).
We can convert this variable to a standard normal variable, z, using the formula:
Replacing x and σ in the z equation, we get:

Cross-Classification
Trip rates are derived from survey data and “cross-classified” with one or more individual variables to estimate trip rates
Number of categories increases exponentially with the number of variables included
![Page 19: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Linear Regression
Used to estimate trips as a linear function of household, individual, or land use variables
For one independent variable (Y) and one dependent variable (X)
![Page 21: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Linear Regression Example
![Page 22: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Method of Least Squares
We want to determine the values of a and b that minimize S
At the minimum, the partial derivatives of S with respect to a and b will be equal to zero
Setting the derivatives equal to zero and solving the equations simultaneously yields formulas for a and b
![Page 23: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Sum of Squared Residuals
The residual is an error term that accounts for the difference between an observed value and its model estimate
The sum of squared residuals is a measure used in statistics to quantify the fit of a model to an observed dataset
![Page 24: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
R2
R2 is a measure of how well a model fits the observed data
R2 represents the proportion of variability in a dataset that is accounted for by the model
R2 values range from 0 (no predictive power) to 1 (perfect model)

Multivariate Linear Regression
Linear regression can also be used to estimate Y as a linear function of multiple variables
Solving for multiple variables manually is extremely tedious Software packages, including Excel, can be used to estimate parameter
values

Production-Attraction Matrix vs. Origin-Destination Matrix
• PA VS. OD MATRIX
• CONVERTING FROM PA TO OD
![Page 29: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
P-A vs. O-D Matrix
Production-Attraction Matrix Used in Trip Distribution stage as input to Gravity or Growth Factor Model
Productiveness and attractiveness of zones will change as a function of demographicsand land use
Origin-Destination Matrix Used in Traffic Assignment stage to determine sources (location where trips created)
and sinks (location where trips are consumed) for trips
![Page 30: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Production-Attraction Matrix
For home-based trips, does not indicate directionality
![Page 31: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Origin-Destination Matrix
Indicates directionality for all trips
![Page 32: CE 326 F2013 Lecture 4-5 Trip Generation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051316/563dbbb3550346aa9aaf7f90/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Home Based vs. Non-Home Based Trips
Home-based-trips either begin or end at a residence Will have one production end and one attraction end
Home end is the production end regardless of directionality
Non-home-based trips neither begin nor end at a residence In reality, both ends are attractions
In order to develop a production-attraction matrix, by definition the origin end is defined as the production end
