Central composite discrepancy (CCD) has been proposed to measure the uniformity of a design over irregular experimental region. However, how CCD-based optimal uniform designs can be efficiently computed remains a challenge. Focusing on this issues, we proposed a particle swarm optimization-based...

The utilization of multiple fidelity simulators for the design and analysis of computer experiments has received increased attention in recent years. In this paper, we study the contour estimation problem for complex systems by considering two fidelity simulators. Our goal is to design a...

The airline-specific gate, which is exclusively used by a specific airline, has been utilized in many airports. Differing from the traditional gate assignment, allocating flights to airline-specific gates is based on the perspective of the airline rather than that of the airport authority. In...

This paper explores access mode choice behavior, using a survey data collected in Taiwan. The latent class nested logit model is used to capture flexible substitution patterns among alternatives and preference heterogeneity across individuals while simultaneously identifying the number, sizes,...

This article investigates the effects of shortening standard workweek on workers with different income levels. Using two repeated cross-sectional survey data, the Taiwanese Manpower Utilization Survey and Human Resource Survey, we estimate the impacts of the new policy on working hours and...
