On the Formulation of a Stochastic User Equilibrium Model Consistent with the Random Utility Theory – A Conjugate Dual Approach

The results presented in this paper include: (1) establishing the correspondence relation between the entropy maximization model and the random utility model; (2) depriving the user equilibrium within the context of conjugate correspondence; and (3) proposing a computation procedure based on the contraction mapping method. All of these results are expected to serve for making further research possible. Therefore, it is appropriate to touch on a few of the remaining problems of each result mentioned above for further research.
