Abstract

This paper first studies the definition and connotation of transportation efficiency. And then the main impact factors of urban transportation efficiency of each city are summarized. Based on fuzzy mathematics theory, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation is applied in the transportation efficiency evaluation, combining the actual situation list to evaluate the general level of transportation efficiency by fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. By setting up the factor sets, the evaluation sets, subjection functions and the weighting set. The evaluation of the weighting sets are made by Information Entropy. The applying example indicates that the researched method is feasible and effective and it can be used widely in the transportation efficiency assessment.
