New Approaches to Pricing Management of Transport Services

Development of new approaches to formation analytics mechanisms for the purpose pricing management services is an important aspect increasing efficiency transport processes. Research aimed at improving tools determining optimal parameters ratio quality and price service a competitive efficient tariff policy continues remain relevant in demand modern market conditions. The objective study, presented article, analyse evaluate prospects implementation areas improve apparatus assessing elasticity railway passenger as transition use non-linear terms customer behaviour modelling functions, well introduction most effective algorithms from set global mathematical optimisation tools. research conclusions are based on system analysis mechanisms, methods economic optimisation, non-parametric statistics results array data passengers branded trains include: comparative assessment using 15 functions that nonlinear parameters; promising search unknown non-smooth customers identified three-stage procedure performance more than 60 (including calculation minima medians sums squares errors, bootstrap analysis, Kruskal– Wallace Mann–Whitney tests, metric specially developed by authors degree superiority one algorithm over another within framework analysis). findings seem able be successfully used relation other modes solving similar problems developing toolkit managing prices services.
