Abstract

This book deals with logit type models which are commonly used in studying spatial interaction. The first approach we could call the Lagrangian paradigm. It is based on the formulation of a mathematical optimization problem the solutions of which have the desired properties, such as user equilibriumroute choice and gravity model trip matrix. The second approach is the Additive Random Utility Maximizing ARUM paradigm. This book represents a third approach; a new definition of cost-minimizing behavior is used to derive and analyze logit type models for spatial interaction. This gives motivation for the models and admits verification of the structure of themodels against observations.We start with an historical overview of different problems and the related development of ideas on how to formulate and solve the problems.
