Abstract: Abstract Traffic flows are the result of movements of people and goods. They are modeled with the help of behavioral patterns that are supposed to remain relatively constant over time. In traditional transport modeling, some of these patterns are described by trip distribution functions, which represent the propensity to make trips with certain costs. The distribution functions (DF) are used to estimate a priori origin destination (OD) matrices.
