The design goal of the recommender system for taxi drivers is to maximize their net profits by following the recommended routes for searching passages. In particular, the system can provide an entire driving route and the drivers are able to find a customer with the largest potential profit using our efficent recursive searching strategy.
The following problems have been investigated:
1) Dynamic taxi pick-up possibility prediction model;
2) Taxi driver Maximum Net Profit (MNP) route recommendation system;
3) Road rebalancing strategy for taxi crowdedness.
