A large-scale simulation platform and AI-driven operational strategies for on-demand ride services（基于大规模仿真平台和人工智能的需求响应出行服务运营策略）

五、报告摘要

In this work, we develop a novel multi-functional and open-sourced simulation platform for on-demand ride service operations, which can simulate the behaviors and movements of various agents (including drivers and passengers) on a real transportation network. It provides a few accessible portals for users to train and test various optimization algorithms, especially reinforcement learning algorithms, for a variety of tasks, including on-demand matching, idle vehicle repositioning, and dynamic pricing. Evaluated by experiments based on real-world datasets, the simulator is demonstrated to be an efficient and effective test bed for various tasks related to on-demand ride service operations.
