Abstract:
This paper presents a modelling approach based on the Possibility Theory to reproduce drivers’ choice behaviour under Advanced Traveller Information Systems (ATIS). The Possibility Theory is introduced to model uncertainty embedded in human perception of information through a fuzzy data fusion technique. Drivers’ choice models are often developed and calibrated by using, among other, Stated Preferences (SP) surveys. An experiment is presented, aimed at setting up an SP-tool based on driving simulator developed at the Technical University of Bari. The obtained results are analysed in order to compare the outcomes of the proposed model with preferences stated in the experiment.
