Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The student will be able to recognize individual types of tasks that can be encountered when solving practical problems in transport forecasting. Based on the analysis of the problem solved, he will be able to choose a suitable method or group of methods (time series analysis methods, regression and correlation analysis, statistical hypothesis testing, gravity models, etc.). It will be able to determine what data and the extent to which it will need to be solved. Last but not least, he will be able to solve the problem by using a suitable software tool.

Summary

The graduate will master the problems of general classical prognostic models based on mathematical statistics (methods of descriptive statistics, statistical theory of estimation, testing of statistical hypotheses, regression and correlation analysis and time series analysis) as well as problems of prognostic models based on unconventional approaches (methods of operational analysis, neural networks). From the field of special prognostic models designed for the needs of transport systems, attention will be focused on modern trends in the development of gravitational models, methods of specific momentum etc.
