* New CMC paper*
A key challenge in using passive #bigdata for #transportmodelling is the scepticism regarding accuracy levels. Here we use simulated data to compare the accuracy of GPS, GSM & CDR data. - with Dr KE Zannat, @stephane_hess Prof Watling @ITSLeeds doi.org/10.1049/itr2.12563

Multitasking poses an issue when modelling time use, as the total time spent on activities may exceed the 24-hour budget generally used in MDCEV models. We look at this issue in our new paper, comparing approaches to deal with this. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
