Research on the forecasting of L-OD demand based-on interval analysis.

Analyzed the uncertainty of logistics demand, combined with the four stages of transport planning methods, applys the concept of interval analysis, constructs the system about the forecasting of L-OD demand based-on interval analysis. Defining interval variables about the system of L-OD, proposes the appropriate internal combination methods and views to solve models. Applying to the example to analyze, and comparing with the traditional prediction methods, describing the advantages of interval forecasting. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
