1 Transferability of Household Travel Data Across Geographic Areas Using NHTS 2001 Jane Lin PhD Assistant Professor Department of Civil and Materials Engineering Institute for Environmental Science and Policy University of Illinois at Chicago Northwestern University Transportation Seminar May
2 Background Household travel surveys are expensive instruments Data become outdated Small MPOs lack resources General approach of data transferability study involves data clustering and updating e.g. Greaves and Stopher (2000) Wilmot and Stopher (2001) Reuscher et al. (2002) Debates over model transferability have never stopped Spatial and temporal transferability Level of aggregation (e.g. Wilmot 1995) Model specification (e.g. Koppelman and Wilmot 1986) 2
3 Objective Focuses on data transferability To examine transferability of household travel survey data across geographic areas Impact of neighborhood type on household travel is of particular interest Urban versus suburban and rural Land use (e.g. density roads intersections) City low income versus suburban wealthy Hispanic versus White or Black etc. 3
4 Definition of transferability We define travel data transferability as the possibility of transferring household travel attributes across geographic areas as well as the trip generation models built on the transferred data which has the following form where y s m i β sm 0 Ks k 1 β smk smik y smi = ith dependent variable for household (i = 1 N sm ) in homogeneous group s (s = 1 S) and geographic area m (m = 1 M) smk = kth model coefficient of intercept (k=0) or household attribute (k = 1 2 K s ) x smik = kth continuous independent variable (household attribute) for household i in homogeneous group s and geographic area m smi = random error term for household i in homogeneous group s and geographic area m x ε smi (1) 4
5 Research questions Suppose we have already clustered households into homogeneous groups across geographic areas including the area of interest. The aggregated information at the group level is available for all of the areas let us call that background attributes associated with each group of the area. Can we associate the dependent variable y smi with the background attributes? Can we estimate coefficients smk s based on the area s background attributes given that individual household attributes are not available? If the predictions are accurate we say the travel data (and model coefficients smk s) are transferable. 5
6 In mathematical language β smk γ sk 0 Q q 1 γ skq w smkq υ smk (2) where w smkq = qth background attribute associated with coefficient smk (k = 1 2 K s ) of group s and geographic area m skq = qth weight for intercept (q = 0) or background attribute (q = 12 Q) smk = random error term associated with coefficient smk of group s and geographic area m 6
7 7 Final model Or in matrix form Y m = X m m + Z m m + m m = W m + m Y m = X m W m + Z m m + (X m m + m ) i m k k i m k m m j j i m j m k k i m q q k m q k k q q m q i m x z x w w y m i j j m i j m K k k m i m k m i m ε z α x β β y s 1 0 k m Q q q k m q k k k m υ w γ γ β 1 0
8 This is a two-level hierarchical modeling problem. For any group s Level 2 Area 1 Area 2 Area M Level 1 Household 1 2 N N N M 8
9 Properties of random errors εm ~ N( 0 R) where R σ 2 I (7) υ m ~ N( 0 G) where G τ τ 00 K s τ 0 τ 0 k kk τ K s τ k 0K τ s K s K s (8) cov ( ε m υ m ) 0 (9) 9
10 Hypotheses Fixed effects ( kq and mj ) H 0 : kq = 0 and mj = 0 for mkq. That is there are no fixed effects of the covariates on the dependent variable if the null hypothesis is accepted. Random effects ( mk ) H 0 : mk = 0 for mk. If the null hypothesis is accepted there are no deviations from the fixed effects across all areas. We then say the household travel data (and the model coefficients) are transferable. Covariance components (R and G) H 0 : kl = 0 tests the goodness-of-fit of the hierarchical model. 10

33 Conclusions We have showed that transferability can be formulated into a two-level random coefficient model and thus transferability can be statistically tested. Transferability is affected not only by the internal household characteristics but also the surrounding environment. Neighborhood approach allows us to test that The case study of transferability across the fourteen MSAs/CMSAs showed that in general the coefficient variability across geographic areas can be ignored. But there are exceptions. The model results also confirm the influence of neighborhood specific features on travel behavior of the households living within 33
34 Limitations We assembled a set of household and neighborhood variables available to us for the modeling Do they meet the minimum model specification? It is important to keep in mind when interpreting the model results that the model does not explain the causal relationships between the dependent variable and covariates. Only household auto work trip rates were examined. Different conclusions may be drawn for other measures such as mode share and number of shopping trips. 34
