Constrained Diffusion Models for the Prediction of Multi-Class Motor Vehicle Ownership. Volume 1: Travel Behavior

The ownership structure of motor vehicles in Taiwan is quite different from that in the developed countries. This paper reports a process for building and testing the diffusion models on the basis of traditional logistic curves, including the specification and estimation of saturation levels. As reported in this paper, the newly developed models give promising results in an empirical study with Taiwan’s licensing data of car and motorcycle ownership.
