COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS AND SELECTION OF THE BEST METHOD HIGHWAY ROUTE

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to review the methods used in the process of selecting the optimal
route of the highway, the way in which these methods are used, highlighting the advantages and
disadvantages of each method, and comparing the particular case make the favored one of the offered
methods. In addition to mutual comparison criteria optimization work are detailed methods and presents
a concrete example, which can be very useful to researchers in this field.
Comparison of the already complex valuation methods with a large number of influential factors is a
particular challenge to the author. It is extremely difficult to make a comparison method which the
authors used a completely different mathematical approach. Some of the criteria optimization are
incurred in order to concrete problems (air transport of passengers, the annual prediction of accidents,
etc.) and as such are not primarily been designed for the selection of the optimal route of the highway.
After much thought and research criteria optimization, this paper applied the mathematical approach in
comparison method, as follows: Spearman's and Pearson's correlation coefficient and Kendall's
coefficient of correlation.
