Development of Safe, Profitable, and Fair Robotaxi Deployment Strategy
The project aims to develop a safe, profitable, and fair deployment strategy for robotaxis by studying the possibility to deploy a fleet of autonomous vehicles with different functionalities. The requirement for AVs will be studied using the traffic primitive method and synthesized with transportation demands. Strategies will be developed to minimize the costs by commanding AVs with different functionalizes to appropriate routes while maintaining a similar level of safety standard. Deployment cost and average waiting time in different communities will be studied to balance the business cost and social benefits.
