Application of Principal Component Analysis Method in Calculating the Weights of the Indexes of the Highway Nodes’ Importance

Abstract

Abstract: This paper first analyzes the problem of current calculating methods of the weights of indexes of the highway nodes’ importance, and the principal component analysis method is put forward as a new thought.With the principal component analysis, the information of original indexes is combined by proper principal component, and the correlation lies in original indexes is eliminated. The variance contribution rates of the principal components by analyzing are the weights of the new indexes of the highway nodes’ importance. At last an example is introduced with good results.

Key words: principal component analysis, node important degree, index, weight

摘要： 通过分析现有公路网节点重要度的指标的权重计算方法中存在的问题，提出利用主成分分析法进行公路网节点重要度的指标权重计算的思想.主成分分析法以适当的主成分综合原始指标的信息.克服原始指标中存在的相关性等不良影响.通过分析得到的主成分的方差贡献率，即为公路网节点重要度的各项新指标的权重系数.并给出应用实例.效果良好.
