In this paper, researchers tackle two major challenges in travel choice analysis: limited survey data and balancing model accuracy with explainability. They propose a novel Large Language Model (LLM) framework that addresses these issues by transforming input variables into textual form, building demonstrations, and applying them to a well-trained LLM. This approach is tested on two widely used datasets, London Passenger Mode Choice (LPMC) and Optima-Mode, with promising results. The LLM outperforms state-of-the-art methods in predicting individual choices, while also providing explicit explanations for these predictions.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper helps us better understand why people make certain travel choices by developing a new Large Language Model framework that improves prediction accuracy and provides clear explanations. The researchers solve two big problems in this field: using limited data to make good predictions, and making those predictions easy to understand. They test their approach on real-life datasets from London and Switzerland, showing it works well.
