Learning Drivers’ Utility Functions in a Coordinated Freight Routing System Based on Drivers’ Actions

  • Principal Investigator Petros Ioannou, Ph.D.
  • University of Southern California
This project explores the probability of developing a centrally coordinated routing system for trucks. The project develops a method for estimating the utility functions of truck drivers based on their response to a centrally coordinated routing system that they are participating, and it also evaluates the impact of assumed wrong utility functions that could be viewed as non-compliance on the system optimum cost.
