7:30-8:30: Keynote by Dr. Peter Vovsha: Recent advances in understanding and modeling travel behavior in digital era ⏯️

Abstract: The presentation summarizes recent advances in development and application of travel behavior models with the emphasis on Agent-Based Modeling, taking advantage on new data sources, and forecasting future scenarios. It describes the underlying theoretical paradigms behind the models of travel behavior and impacts of the digital era, historical evolution of applied Agent-Based Models in transportation, methods for model training and calibration, software platforms and key implementation aspects, as well as approaches to formation of future scenarios. The flexibility and prediction power of the new generation of Agent-Based model is illustrated on the example of a scenario for a large city that adopted Autonomous Vehicles.
