Title: | The role of Occam's razor in activity based modeling | Authors: | MOONS, Elke WETS, Geert AERTS, Marc VANHOOF, Koen |
Issue Date: | 2002 | Source: | Computational Intelligent System for Applied Research: proceedings of the 5th International FLINS Conference, September 16-18 Gent. p. 153-162. | Series/Report: | FLINS 2002 | Abstract: | This paper reports the results of a study conducted to assess the impact of the number of attibutes on the accuracy of tree induction algorithm and to find a good criterion to select the final model. To that effect, activity-travel diary data collected in the Netherlands are used for analysis. The results indicate that significantly smaller trees can be derived with a maximum loss of 2% in accuracy. Transport variables appear to be the most discriminating attributes in order to determine the transport mode chosen for work-related trips. For non-work tours, household characteristics are most important for this purpose. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/5027 | ISBN: | 981-238-066-3 | ISI #: | 000186233300020 | Category: | C1 | Type: | Proceedings Paper | Validations: | ecoom 2004 |
