摘要: 熵最大化方法被广泛应用于交通规划,为交通需求预测模型提供了理论依据.本文使用信息论中的熵概念描述居民出行分布,并根据最大信息熵理论提出了基于原点矩典型特征量约束条件下的出行分布模型,详细阐述了模型中各个参数的实际含义,该模型是一个普适性模型,其具体形式决定于最高阶原点矩阶数的取值,此值对模型精度及参数标定难易程度有重要影响.为确定模型参数,提出了实用的参数标定方法.由于模型中原点矩的最高阶数对模型精度有较大影响,为找到两者之间的关系,利用长春市出行调查数据研究了四种出行方式分别时应于五种原点矩最高阶数的模型拟合情况.因文中所建立的模型是一系列模型,为比较其描述问题的优劣差异,按照最大信息熵原理给出了确定系统分布的熵方法,并运用该方法对前述模型进行了比较.调查数据的验证结果表明,出行分布的信息熵模型可以正确地描述出行分布规律,熵方法可以简单有效地评价不同模型对同一问题描述的优劣差异.本文提出的熵模型和熵方法对城市交通规划具有指导意义.

Abstract: Entropy maximization approach has been widely used in transportation planning.It provides theoretical basis for a class of forecast models on traffic demand. In this paper,the concept of entropy from information theory is borrowed to describe inhabitant trip distribution and then a trip distribution model is presented under constraints of typical characteristics based on origin moments. The actual meaning of the parameters in the built models is instructed in details. The model is characteristic of generality. The concrete form of the model depends on the order of the highest origin moment which has a great impact on the precision of the model and the labor of parameters calibration. In order to ascertain the parameters in the models,the applied method of calibrating parameters is put forward. Because the number of the most order origin moment has larger effect on the precision of the models,the simulated case of the models of which four trip mode respectively correspond with five most order origin moment is studied by applying the data of trip survey in Changchun city for finding the relation between the two. Because the built models in the paper are a series of models,the entropy method which can ascertain system distribution is educed according to the maximum information entropy theory in order to compare the difference of which the differenmodels describe the same problem. And the above models are compared by using the method. The validated results of survey data show that the information entropy model of trip distribution can correctly describe trip distribution principle and the entropy method can simply and effectively evaluate the difference of which the different models describe the same problem. The entropy models and the entropy method mentioned in the paper have the instructed meaning to traffic planning in city.
