Improving Intelligent Decision Making in Urban Planning: Using Machine Learning Algorithms

摘要

Generally, decision making in urban planning has progressively become difficult due to the uncertain, convoluted, and multi-criteria nature of urban issues. Even though there has been a growing interest to this domain, traditional decision support systems are no longer able to effectively support the decision process. This paper aims to elaborate an intelligent decision support system (IDSS) that provides relevant assistance to urban planners in urban projects. This research addresses the use of new techniques that contribute to intelligent decision making: machine learning classifiers, naive Bayes classifier, and agglomerative clustering. Finally, a prototype is being developed to concretize the proposition.
