  2. 1. Contributions to the Theory of Measures of Association for Ordinal Variables

    Author : Joakim Ekström; Rolf Larsson; Albert Satorra; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Statistics; Statistik; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we consider measures of association for ordinal variables from a theoretical perspective. In particular, we study the phi-coefficient, the tetrachoric correlation coefficient and the polychoric correlation coefficient. READ MORE

  4. 2. Designing Urban Road Congestion Charging Systems : Models and Heuristic Solution Approaches

    Author : Joakim Ekström; Jan Lundgren; Anders Karlström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : transport modeling; congestion pricing; network design; bi-level optimization; toll locations; traffic assignment; user equilibrium; collection cost; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The question of how to design a congestion pricing scheme is difficult to answer and involves a number of complex decisions. This thesis is devoted to the quantitative parts of designing a congestion pricing scheme with link tolls in an urban car traffic network. READ MORE

  5. 3. Optimization Approaches for Design of Congestion Pricing Schemes

    Author : Joakim Ekström; Jan Lundgren; Richard Connors; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : In recent years, there has been a growing interest in congestion pricing as a tool for solving traffic congestion problems in urban areas. However, the transportation system is complex and to design a congestion pricing scheme, i.e. to decide where and how much to charge the road users, is not trivial. READ MORE

  6. 4. On the use of traffic flows for improved transportation systems : Mathematical modeling and applications

    Author : Henrik Fredriksson; Mattias Dahl; Johan Holmgren; Benny Lövström; Joakim Ekström; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mathematical modeling; Transportation systems; Link flows; Mathematics and applications; Matematik med tillämpningar;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the mathematical modeling of transportation systems for improved decision support and analysis of transportation-related problems. The main purpose of this thesis is to develop and evaluate models and methods that exploit link flows. READ MORE

  7. 5. Data-Driven Approaches for Traffic State and Emission Estimation

    Author : Nikolaos Tsanakas; Jan Lundgren; Joakim Ekström; Johan Olstam; David Gundlegård; J.W.C. van Lint; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Traffic congestion is one of the most severe problems in modern urban areas. Besides the amplified travel times, traffic congestion intensifies the amount of emitted pollutants impacting human health and the environment. READ MORE
