摘要

The emergence of ridesharing, led by companies such as DiDi, Uber, and Lyft, has revolutionized the form of personal mobility. Per (FortuneBusinessInsights 2021), the global rideshare market size was US$76.48 billion in 2020 and is projected to grow to a total market value of US$242.73 billion by 2028. However, how to improve operational efficiency is a major challenge for rideshare platforms, e.g., long passenger waiting time (Smith 2019) and as high as 41% vacant time for ridesharing vehicles in a large city (Brown 2020). The success of ridesharing, from the perspectives of the platforms, drivers, and passengers, requires sophisticated optimization of all the integrated components that collectively deliver the services.
