Reliable Decision-Making for Sustainable Transportation explores decision-making methods that incorporate expert and decision-maker opinions for improved reliability. The book examines fuzzy sets that capture ambiguity and enable a more comprehensive analysis of stakeholder perspectives, focusing on transportation case studies to demonstrate techniques for weighing criteria, ranking alternatives, and selecting optimal and reliable decisions. It seeks to advance transportation planning, traffic engineering, road safety, and sustainability by integrating state-of-the-art decision support systems that leverage AI and multiple stakeholder viewpoints.
This approach will benefit researchers and professionals across transportation, decision sciences, supply chain management, and operations looking for innovative ways to model uncertainty and decision-maker reliability and providing methodologies and frameworks for more robust group decisions.
