Modeling Equity in Transportation Systems

Explore the complexities of modeling equity in transportation systems through this insightful lecture presented by M. Grazia Speranza from Università di Brescia. Delve into various interpretations of equity within different transportation contexts, including traffic assignment and collaboration initiatives among service providers. Examine specific examples of how to approach and model equity, focusing on scenarios such as treating drivers with identical origins and destinations, managing congestion across multiple network arcs, and addressing fairness in transportation company partnerships. Gain valuable insights into the mathematical foundations underlying equitable transportation systems and their practical applications. Recorded as part of IPAM's Mathematical Foundations for Equity in Transportation Systems Workshop at UCLA, this 48-minute talk offers a comprehensive look at the challenges and potential solutions in creating more equitable transportation models.
