Order dispatch systems play a vital role in ride-hailing services, which directly influence operator revenue, driver profit, and passenger experience. Most existing work focuses on improving system efficiency in terms of operator revenue,…
The witnessed boom in mobility results in many problems such as urbanization, costly construction of many highways and air pollution. In an attempt to address these problems, in this master, we are interested in the implementation of a…
Safe and computationally efficient local planning for mobile robots in dense, unstructured human crowds remains a fundamental challenge. Moreover, ensuring that robot trajectories are similar to how a human moves will increase the…
The advent of large language models (LLMs) presents new opportunities for travel demand modeling. However, behavioral misalignment between LLMs and humans presents obstacles for the usage of LLMs, and existing alignment methods are…
Electric vehicles (EVs) play a pivotal role in sustainable ride-hailing services primarily due to their potential in reducing carbon emissions and enhancing environmental protection. Despite their significance, current research in the realm…
Cooperative perception is a promising technique for intelligent and connected vehicles through vehicle-to-everything (V2X) cooperation, provided that accurate pose information and relative pose transforms are available. Nevertheless,…
Transportation services play a crucial part in the development of modern smart cities. In particular, on-demand ridesharing services, which group together passengers with similar itineraries, are already operating in several metropolitan…
One-way car-sharing systems are transportation systems that allow customers to rent cars at stations scattered around the city, use them for a short journey, and return them at any station. The maximum customers' satisfaction problem…
Ride-pooling, which accommodates multiple passenger requests in a single trip, has the potential to significantly increase fleet utilization in shared mobility platforms. The ride-pooling assignment problem finds optimal co-riders to…
Ride-sharing or vehicle-pooling allows commuters to team up spontaneously for transportation cost sharing. This has become a popular trend in the emerging paradigm of sharing economy. One crucial component to support effective ride-sharing…
In a ride-pooling system, travellers experience discomfort associated with a detour and a longer travel time, which is compensated with a sharing discount. Most studies assume travellers receive either a flat discount or, in rare cases, a…
Motivated by applications in online marketplaces such as ride-hailing, we study how strategic servers impact the system performance. We consider a discrete-time process in which, heterogeneous types of customers and servers arrive. Each…
Problem definition: In many matching markets, some agents are fully flexible, while others only accept a subset of jobs. For example, ridesharing drivers can specify on the platform the destinations they are willing to accept. Conventional…
Robust robot planning in dynamic, human-centric environments remains challenging due to multimodal uncertainty, the need for real-time adaptation, and safety requirements. Optimization-based planners enable explicit constraint handling but…
We propose a centralized transportation system that integrates public transit with ridesharing to provide multimodal transportation. At each time interval, the system receives a set of personal drivers, designated drivers, and public…
The shift from private vehicles to public and shared transport is crucial to reducing emissions and meeting climate targets. Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop a multimodal transport trip planning approach that integrates…
The culture of sharing instead of ownership is sharply increasing in individuals behaviors. Particularly in transportation, concepts of sharing a ride in either carpooling or ridesharing have been recently adopted. An efficient optimization…
Ride-pooling has become an important service option offered by ride-hailing platforms as it serves multiple trip requests in a single ride. By leveraging customer data, connected vehicles, and efficient assignment algorithms, ride-pooling…
The recent advancement in vehicular networking technology provides novel solutions for designing intelligent and sustainable vehicle motion controllers. This work addresses a car-following task, where the feedback linearisation method is…
Recommending routes by their probability of having a rider has long been the goal of conventional route recommendation systems. While this maximizes the platform-specific criteria of efficiency, it results in sub-optimal outcomes with the…
