This is a re-publication of A Self-Instructing Course in Mode Choice Modeling, originally prepared by Frank Koppelman and Chandra Bhat for the Federal Transit Administration. The mathematics and instruction provided by this course have been extraordinarily helpful to a generation of choice modelers and other transportation professionals in academic and practical settings.
The explosion of open-source packages for logit modeling and literate programming more generally warrants this re-publication in bookdown.
The R code to compute the choice models in this book is embedded within the text and exposed to the viewer. In this way, the book serves not only as a primer on choice modeling, but on how to estimate and interpret choice modelers in R. This conversion project was undertaken by members of the AEP50(5) subcommittee on travel forecasting resources on behalf of the transportation modeling community.
