Decision-Making Research on Tour Lines of Tourist-Dedicated Train Based on Vague Sets and Prospect Theory

Tourist-dedicated train is the product of the combination of railway transportation and tourism, and its tour line selection includes the selection of nodes and lines. Based on the principle of decision-making, taking technical factors, tourism factors, regional economic factors, and passenger flow...

description Tourist-dedicated train is the product of the combination of railway transportation and tourism, and its tour line selection includes the selection of nodes and lines. Based on the principle of decision-making, taking technical factors, tourism factors, regional economic factors, and passenger flow factors as criteria, this paper analyzes the decision-making indices affecting the tour line and establishes the decision-making index system. Subsequently, the prospect theory considering the bounded rationality and psychological factors of decision makers is combined with vague set fuzzy decision theory, and a comprehensive decision method based on vague set and prospect theory is proposed. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed decision method is verified by an example. The research shows that the established decision-making index system is representative, and the proposed decision-making method is scientific and effective for the decision making of tourist lines of tourist-dedicated train. The decision-making results can be used as a reference for the formulation of tour lines and line plans of tourist-dedicated train.
