Abstract

Although the individuals’ transport behavioural modelling is a complex task, it has a notable social and economic impact. Thus, in this paper Fuzzy Cognitive Maps are explored to represent the behaviour and operation of such systems. This technique allows modelling how the travellers make decisions based on their knowledge of different transport modes properties at different levels of abstraction. We use learning of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps to describe travellers’ behaviour and change trends in different abstraction levels. The results of this study will help transportation policy decision makers in better understanding of people’s needs and consequently will help them actualizing different policy formulations and implementations.
