      Content of Learning Activity

      * Basic concepts in transport modelling: a general vision of the interest of modeling techniques to solve practical transport problems (such as the improvement of public transport) will be presented. The objective will also be to introduce the basic concepts and methodologies that will be useful for understanding the subsequent models.
      * Introduction to the 4-step model: the different stages will be introduced gradually, and illustrated with simple examples, with the overarching goal of ensuring a critical analysis of the advantages and disadvantages associated with the underlying assumptions. In particular, the focus will be put on:
      - Demand modelling using data analytics
      - Network modelling and the traffic assignment problem through optimization techniques
      Guided labs on dedicated software will be organized to illustrate these aspects.
