Applications of Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process in Urban Mobility System

Abstract

Importance of urban mobility system is increasing from year to year. This is the reason why decision making process is increasingly complex requiring taking into account more and more different criteria. One of the important and commonly used techniques that support decision making processes is Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) while for the purpose of supporting a more realistic way of decision making, fuzzy logic is used. The paper examines the use of fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) in the urban mobility system. With the use of systematic literature review (SLR) it categorises peer reviewed journals' articles related to the applications of FAHP in urban mobility system and extracted from Scopus and Web of science database, and analyses them methodologically. Papers were classified based on basic attributes of research papers, features of urban mobility system (UMS) where the FAHP was used, and use characteristics of the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP). The results of this study indicated that the use of FAHP in urban mobility system is increasing with the first published paper in 2009. Our review has found that FAHP is used for very different purposes such as evaluation of customer expectations or citing a selection problem. Most often it is used in combination with other methods. Interestingly, there is only one paper that uses FAHP for decision making in the whole urban mobility system.

Comprehensive Power Transformers Evaluation based on Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approach

“…In order to rationalize the uncertainty accompanying the decision-making process, it is necessary that new approaches to dealing with uncertainty within the conventional AHP process, such as fuzzy Set Theory, should be incorporated. Fuzzy logic provides a more realistic way for dealing with undetermined human judgments [21], this theory is oriented towards the conversion of human perceptions, such as linguistic statements, into an arithmetical form by representing vague data by using fuzzy numbers [22]. Triangular fuzzy Numbers (TFN) are most often used to describe fuzzy events.…”

Multi-Criteria Analysis for the Evaluation of Urban Freight Logistics Solutions: A Systematic Literature Review

“…Furthermore, in the review conducted by Kramar and Topolšek [25], which focused on applying the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (F-AHP) method in the urban mobility field, there is only one reference linked to freight logistics. This same paper has also been identified in the current literature review.…”
