Abstract
We move towards an era of smart cities and factories, where autonomous vehicles will provide on-demand transportation while making our streets safer, and mobile robots will automate processes in coexistence with humans. These applications require novel methods for real-time large-scale routing of thousands of vehicles and multi-objective task assignment. In this talk and building upon our seminal work on on-demand high-capacity ridesharing via dynamic trip-vehicle assignment, I will give an overview of our recent work in this field. I will first analyze some of the sources of uncertainty present in ride pooling systems, followed by a discussion of
methods for predictive routing that utilize a model of future demand, how these systems could be combined with public transit, and how an equilibrium can be achieved. Secondly, I will discuss an extension of these methods for flash deliveries and a multi-objective optimization that enables us to design the required vehicle fleet accounting for the trade-off between quality of service and operation cost. Finally, and looking into a multi-robot task pickup and delivery problem, I will discuss how we can compute statistically distinct plans for multi-objective task assignment, which could later be employed by a user to select the desired operational point of the system.
