报告简介

Ride-sourcing servicesare now reshaping the way people travel by effectively connecting drivers andpassengers through mobile internets. Online matching between idle drivers andwaiting passengers is one of the most key components in a ride-sourcing system.The average pickup distance or time is an important measurement of systemefficiency since it affects both passengers’ waiting time and drivers’utilization rate. It is naturally expected that a more effective bipartitematching (with smaller average pickup time) can be implemented if the platformaccumulates more idle drivers and waiting passengers in the matching pool. Aspecific passenger request can also benefit from a delayed matching sincehe/she may be matched with closer idle drivers after waiting for a few seconds.Motivated by the potential benefits of delayed matching, this paper establishesa two-stage framework which incorporates a combinatorial optimization andmulti-agent deep reinforcement learning methods. The multi-agent reinforcementlearning methods are used to dynamically determine the delayed time for eachpassenger request (or the time at which each request enters the matching pool),while the combinatorial optimization conducts an optimal bipartite matchingbetween idle drivers and waiting passengers in the matching pool. Tworeinforcement learning methods, spatio-temporal multi-agent deep Q learning(ST-M-DQN) and spatio-temporal multi-agent actor-critic (ST-M-A2C) aredeveloped. Through extensive empirical experiments with a well-designed simulator,we show that the proposed framework is able to remarkably improve systemperformances.
