The Application of Fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision Making to the Transit System Performance Evaluation

  • Conference paper
Multiple Criteria Decision Making

Abstract

A double model based on fuzzy synthetic decision and approximation reasoning is presented for the evaluation of transit operations performance. A heuristic algorithm for evaluating Taipei transit system performance is developed and domonstrated in a case study. In the end, we will compare the traditional approach with our model.
