A family of spatial interaction models and associated developments

TL;DR: This paper shows that the gravity model is not a single model but that there is a whole family of spatial interaction models, and is particularly concerned with the disaggregation of such models, with the incorporation of time variables, and with the relation of spatial interactions to more general models.

Urban Modelling: Algorithms, Calibrations, Predictions

Michael Batty
TL;DR: Introduces mathematical models of urban phenomena relevant to scientists and planners attempting to understand and predict the form of cities and regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A relationship between the gravity model for trip distribution and the transportation problem in linear programming

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that as ALPHA TENDS TO INFINITY, this tri-trip multiplier is the limit in which the total COST of TRIPS is the least possible allowed by the given origin and destination locations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Calibration of Gravity, Entropy, and Related Models of Spatial Interaction:

TL;DR: Five methods for solving the maximum-likelihood equations are outlined and it appears that the Newton—Raphson method is the most efficient, and this is further tested in the calibration of disaggregated residential location models.

Chapter 9 Spatial interaction, transportation, and interregional commodity flow models

TL;DR: Theoretical methods for studying these phenomena have been modified considerably during the past 30 years to provide operational assistance to transportation planners and, more recently, regional economists as discussed by the authors, and the developments made in the ongoing evolution of models describing spatial interaction, transportation, and the flow of commodities among different regions.

The Analysis of Variance

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic theory of analysis of variance by considering several different mathematical models is examined, including fixed-effects models with independent observations of equal variance and other models with different observations of variance.

The Calibration of Trip Distribution Models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the evidence supplied by a survey to substantiate the distributional hypothesis implied by the model and derived an evidence test which is applicable to trip-distribution models.
