Abstract

This paper discusses important developments in discrete choice modeling for transportation applications. Since there have been a number of excellent recent surveys of the discrete choice literature aimed at transportation applications (see Bhat, 1997 and 2000a), this paper will concentrate on new developments and areas given less weight in recent surveys. Small and Winston (1999) give an excellent review of the transportation demand literature that includes many examples of how discrete choice models have been used in demand analysis.
