Exploiting Network Structure in Multi-criteria Distributed and Competitive Stationary-resource Searching

Abstract

Transportation between satellite cities or inside the city center has always been a crucial factor in contributing to a better quality of life. This article focuses on multi-criteria distributed and competitive route planning for stationary resources in regions where neither real-time nor historical availability of the targeted resource is accessible. We propose an inference-than-planning approach, with an availability inference for stationary resources in areas with no sensor coverage and a distributed routing where no information is shared among agents. We leverage the inferred availability and network structure in the searching space to suggest a two-stage algorithm with three relaxing policies: adjacent cruising, on-orbital annealing, and orbital transitioning. We take two publicly accessible parking-slot datasets from San Francisco and Melbourne for evaluation. Overall results show that the proposed availability inference …
