DESCRIPTION:\nABSTRACT\nConventional activity-based models primarily rely 
 on household travel survey (HTS) data\, which often suffers from low spati
 al heterogeneity due to limited sampling rates. Passively collected mobili
 ty (PCM) data\, such as cellular traces and transit smart card\, offers e
 xtensive spatial coverage but poses significant challenges for integration
  with HTS data because of differences in spatial resolution and attributes
 . To address these limitations\, this study introduces a novel data fusion
  approach that combines the strengths of both data sources. The proposed m
 ethod focuses on two key components: first\, the generation of multimodal 
 time-dependent origin-destination (OD) matrices by integrating HTS and PCM
  data to improve the representation of multimodal travel demand\; second\,
  the development of complete activity schedules for synthetic populations 
 by fusing the OD matrices generated in the first step with HTS data. With 
 the integration of PCM data\, this approach enables the estimation and rea
 l-time updating of multimodal OD demand matrices and activity schedules\, 
 paving the way for more dynamic\, data-driven\, and resilient transportati
 on planning.  \n\nBIO\nDr Prateek Bansal is a Presidential Young (Ass
 istant) Professor at the National University of Singapore (NUS). Before jo
 ining NUS in 2022\, he was a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellow at Imper
 ial College London and did a Ph.D. from Cornell\, an MSc from UT Austin\, 
 a BTech from IIT Delhi. Prateek leads the Behavioural Cognitive Scien
 ce Lab at NUS and is a co-principal investigator of the Adaptive Mobility 
 module at Future Cities Laboratory\, Singapore. His research group is inte
 rested in creating new methods to address challenging questions related to
  mobility behavior and the adoption of emerging technologies at an individ
 ual level and an urban scale. His research has led to over 70 journal art
 icles. Apart from top Transportation journals\, he regularly publishes in 
 interdisciplinary journals like Energy Economics and Statistics and Comput
 ing. He also serves as the editorial board member of Transportation Resear
 ch Part A: Policy and Practice\, Transportation Research Part B: Methodolo
 gical\, and Journal of Choice Modelling\, among others. He is a member of 
 the TRB’s standing committees on Travel Survey Methods (AEP25) and Trave
 l Forecasting (AEP50)\, and a regular board member of the International As
 sociation of Travel Behavior Research (IATBR).  \n
