A Mixed Integer Linear Programming Model For Ride-sharing With Advanced Air Mobility
Dengfeng Sun, PhD
In this talk, Professor Dengfeng Sun will present some research outcomes from the project, “Ride-sharing with Advanced Air Mobility.” In this project, researchers from Purdue University developed a comprehensive and efficient mixed integer linear programming model for the autonomous aerial ridesharing service. They used one unified model to simultaneously solve two problems:
1) the optimal assignment problem between the air taxis and the users, and
2) the optimal path planning problem of the air taxis.
The model aims to minimize the waiting time of the users, the operation cost of the air taxis, the number of unserved ride-sharing requests, and the completion time of received requests. They will present challenges encountered during the project and share some computational results from the model.
