Feasible and Novel Synthetic Population Generation with Tabular and Sequential Travel Attributes

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.15867v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Synthetic populations are critical inputs for activity-based travel demand models, yet generating realistic populations from limited survey data remains challenging. Small samples miss valid attribute combinations, known as sampling zeros, and generative models may also produce infeasible structural zeros. Moreover, realistic synthetic populations must capture both static socio-demographic attributes and sequential travel behaviour, such as trip
