Research on Coordinated Development of a Railway Freight Collection and Distribution System Based on an “Entropy-TOPSIS Coupling Development Degree Model” Integrated with Machine Learning

الملخص EN

In recent years, with the gradual networking of high-speed railways in China, the existing railway transportation capacity has been released.

In order to improve transportation capacity, railway freight transportation enterprises companies have gradually shifted the transportation of goods from dedicated freight lines to passenger-cargo lines.

In terms of the organization form of collection and distribution, China has a complete research system for heavy-haul railway collection and distribution, but the research on the integration of collection and distribution of the ordinary-speed railway freight has not been completed.

This paper combines the theories of the integration of collection and distribution theory, coordination theory, and coupling theory and incorporates the machine learning fuzzy mathematics to construct an “Entropy-TOPSIS Coupling Development Degree Model” for dynamic intelligent quantitative analysis of the synergy of railway freight collection and distribution systems.

Finally, we take the Tongchuan Depot of “China Railway Xi’an Group Co., Ltd.” as a research object to construct a target system and use the intelligent information acquisition system to collect basic data.

The analysis results show that through the coordinated control of the freight collection and distribution system, the coordination between the subsystems of the integrated freight collection and distribution system is increased by 5.94%, which verifies the feasibility of the model in the quantitative improvement of the integration of collection and distribution system.

It provides a new method for the research of integrated development of railway freight collection and distribution.
