Optimization method of taxi operation decision based on improved TOPSIS

Abstract

In order to achieve the goal of reducing taxi operating losses, the quantification of losses should first be completed. The average time cost of waiting for drivers is quantified by queuing theory, and the "Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS)" model improved by entropy method quantifies the possibility of carrying passengers in different periods. The possibility is used to complete the quantification of potential loss parameters of no-load. Through the quantitative indicators, a taxi operation loss model is constructed. Based on this model, an operational decision-making scheme to reduce losses is proposed. Finally, the verification of flight and taxi data quoted from Luoyang Beijiao airport proves that the decision-making method of this paper can effectively reduce the operational loss of taxis.
