Abstract

Demand estimation is an important step for multiple applications in urban studies. However, the level of accuracy required depends on the objective of the study. In dynamic traffic microsimulation, the estimation of demand needs to be accurate, as it is intended to describe individuals' trips on a very small-scale. In this case, poor estimation of trip initiation, path, and endings could result in the wrong estimation of the city-block scale's traffic state. Estimating demand at a large-scale with high-resolution is not only very challenging because it requires a large volume of data from multiple sources, but the underlying mathematical problem is considerable and thus hard to solve.
