An Empirical Activity Sequence Approach for Travel Behavior Analysis in Vilnius City

The approach defines the process of conducting an empirical research of the travel behavior patterns of residents of Vilnius city. It defines survey methodology and important mobility parameters such as activity sequences and their probabilities of homogeneous urban population segments during the we...
