Hierarchical Vehicle Scheduling Research on Tide Bicycle-Sharing Traffic of Autonomous Transportation Systems

“…Equation (10) indicates that the vehicle departs from the terminus at time zero; equation (11) means that the time calculation for a vehicle to arrive in an area; equation (12) demonstrates that the scheduling cannot arrive in area j from area i before…”

“…As current diversifed mobility demands tend to be managed and fulflled by more intelligent and automated systems with fewer human intervention [10], it is an urgent need to collaborate corresponding functions to renovate the conventional MS of ITS in the context of ATS [11], i.e., update the ability to sense user demands and rearrange system supplies [12,13]. Hence, to promote the MS provided by ATS, this paper proposes a hierarchical autonomous vehicle scheduling model based on tide bicycle-sharing trafc, namely, HATB.…”

A Federated Mixed Logit Model for Personal Mobility Service in Autonomous Transportation Systems

“…In recent years, along with the rapid development of advanced technologies, e.g., the internet of things (IoT), big data (BD), and artificial intelligence (AI), [1], various emerging services and devices applied in the field of transportation, e.g., autonomous vehicles for vehicle to everything [2][3][4], e-scooter with ride-sharing [5], to support the upgrade of transportation systems (TS) by elevating their level of automation and intelligence [6]. Accordingly, a novel form of modern TS, named autonomous TS (ATS) [7], is being enlightened. Compared to past conventional TS (CTS) and present intelligent TS (ITS) [8], ATS can manage diversified demands and automatized supplies through a self-actuating cycle consisting of sensing, learning, rearranging, and reacting steps, further improving the safety, reliability, convenience, efficiency, and sustainability of TS [7].…”

“…However, such MSs still have non-negligible limitations in achieving an equilibrium between diverse mobility demands and supplies. To foster mobility on integration and explore the advancement of the future-stage ATS, a novel service to bridge individual demands with system supplies comprehensively, called personal mobility service (PMS), is being studied [7,12,13].…”
