摘要

This study evaluates and compares the performance of traditional multiple linear regression (MLR) with advanced machine learning (ML) approaches such as support vector machine (SVM) and artificial neural network (ANN) for predicting household trip generation in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, India. Data was collected through household surveys comprising 1000 samples, incorporating socio-demographic characteristics, travel behaviour, and trip information. The analysis employed 16 independent variables including household characteristics and age categories, with daily trips as the dependent variable. After correlation analysis and variable selection (p < 0.05), significant predictors were identified and used across all three models. The ANN model, with an 11-40-1 architecture, demonstrated superior performance (R2 = 0.77, MSE = 1.048, MAE = 0.92), followed by MLR (R2 = 0.686, MSE = 2.228, MAE = 1.18) and SVM (R2 = 0.69, MSE = 2.21, MAE = 1.16). Total trip length and number of teenagers emerged as the most influential factors. While ANN showed the best prediction accuracy, MLR provided better interpretability, and SVM offered a balance between both. The results aid in understanding of trip generation trends in Indian cities and indicate that, although sophisticated machine learning methods can increase prediction accuracy, the modelling strategy selected should be in line with planning needs and the computational resources at hand..
