Ricardo Daziano

Ricardo Daziano is a Professor and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University. His research focuses on engineering decision making, with an emphasis on theoretical and applied econometrics of consumer behavior and discrete choice models applied to technological innovation in transportation and energy. Daziano's empirical research interests include the analysis of air travel demand and the study of pro-environmental preferences toward low-emission vehicles. His work also involves modeling transportation and energy systems to inform policy and technological advancements.

Ricardo Daziano is a professor at Cornell University specializing in discrete choice models, willingness to pay, and energy demand. His research explores consumer behavior in response to technological innovations, such as autonomous vehicles and electric vehicles, using stated preference experiments and Bayesian hybrid choice models. Daziano's work also examines the impact of environmental factors, including CO2 emissions and weather, on transportation mode choice. His studies integrate latent variables and mixed multinomial logit models to better understand individual heterogeneity in decision-making processes. By analyzing data from various regions, including Santiago de Chile and the United States, Daziano contributes to the development of mobility-on-demand systems and sustainable energy policies.
