Abstract:We introduce a modeling framework for stochastic rider‐driver matching in many‐to‐one ridesharing systems, in which drivers have to be selected before the exact rider demand is known. The modeling framework allows for the use of driver booking fees and penalties for unmatched drivers, therefore supporting different system operating modes. We model this problem as a two‐stage stochastic set packing problem. To tackle the intractability of the stochastic problem, we introduce three model approximations and evalu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
