Trip generation models estimate the number of trips produced by households based on their attributes, using cross-classification which groups households into cells based on factors like size and income to calculate average trip rates. This method has advantages like not requiring assumptions about relationships and allowing different forms between classes, but disadvantages include not permitting extrapolation beyond calibration groups and requiring large sample sizes for reliable cell values. The document also provides examples of cross-classification models and attraction models for home-based work trips.

Definition Category Analysis/Cross Classification It is based on estimating the response (e.g. No. of trips per household for a given purpose) as a function of household attributes. Based on the assumption that trip generation rates are relatively stable over time for certain household stratifications. Example of cross classification model Model Specification Cross classification is based on grouping the households in different strata; for example, a specific cell is based on household size and household income. The trip production rate for that specific cell then is total number of trips in that cell divided by the number of household in that cell. Categories basis Choice of categories is based on the notion that trip rate distribution for a particular household type have its standard deviation as minimum as possible. Advantages of the Method Cross-classification groupings are independent of the zone system of the study area. No prior assumptions about the relationship are required (i.e. they dont even have to be monotonic, let alone linear) Relationship can differ in form from class to class (e.g. the effect of changes in household size for one or two car-owning households may be different.) Disadvantage of the method It does not permit extrapolation beyond its calibration strata. There are no statistical goodness-of-fit measure for the model. It requires large sample sizes (25 household per cell); otherwise cell values will vary in reliability. There is no effective way to choose among variables for classification, or choose best groupings of a given variable; the minimization of st. deviation process requires an extensive trial and error procedure which may be considered infeasible in practical studies. If it is required to increase the number of stratifying variables, it might be necessary to increase the sample enormously. Attraction Models (Example)
