Research on the Forecasting of Road Freight Volume Based on Support Vector Machine

The paper first analyzes the significance of road freight volume forecasting and introduces the prevalent forecasting methods both abroad and at home.Then it summarizes the core ideas and basic principles of support vector machine and builds thereupon a road freight volume forecasting model,presenting the modeling procedures and parameter demarcation and correction process.Finally,with basic data from Beijing,it constructs a model of support vector manchine for its road freight volume forecasting,which,together the application of the software LibSVM,verifies the effectiveness,feasibility and practicality of the model.
