A bi-level Random Forest based approach for estimating O-D matrices: Preliminary results from the Belgium National Household Travel Survey KU Leuven
© 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V. This paper presents a random forests (RF) based approach to estimate an origin-destination (O-D) matrix on the basis of a travel survey. The trips are predicted on a weekly basis to retain a maximum number of recorded trips for model calibration and validation. The flexibility of the procedure ensures an extension for further disaggregate estimates of O-D matrices. We adopt data stemming from the ...
