The need for latent variables for modelling decision-making in evacuation simulations (2022)
Book Chapter
Lovreglio, R., Borri, D., Ronchi, E., Fonzone, A., & dell’Olio, L. (2022). The need for latent variables for modelling decision-making in evacuation simulations. In C. De Lucia, D. Borri, A.

Evacuation models generally tend to make over-simplifications in the representation of human behaviour in fire due to the difficulties to capture its complexity. This work shows how discrete choice model approaches allow overcoming this issue. A desc... Read More about The need for latent variables for modelling decision-making in evacuation simulations.

Access to Ubiquitous Real-Time Information by Bus Passengers in Urban Contexts (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Islam, M. F., Fonzone, A., & Fountas, G. (2021, June). Access to Ubiquitous Real-Time Information by Bus Passengers in Urban Contexts. Presented at 2021 7th International Conference on Models and Technologies for Intelligent Transportation Systems (MT-ITS), Heraklion, Greece

Due to higher smartphone uptake and Internet penetration rate, Ubiquitous Real-time Passenger Information (URTPI) has become available to and required by larger segments of the public transit passenger population. URTPI can influence perceptions rega... Read More about Access to Ubiquitous Real-Time Information by Bus Passengers in Urban Contexts.
