Abstract

This paper designed a heuristic dynamic ridesharing matching algorithm considering user preference to overcome defects that the existing algorithms seldom considered the demand of ridesharing preference among users in dynamic ridesharing system. It established a dynamic ridesharing matching model to satisfy the user's preference demands, which was to address the problem of maximize the system matching rate and minimize the vehicle detour distance. At first, the proposed algorithm filtered the vehicles that did not meet the user's preferences according to the time constraints of travel requests, the travel trajectories of vehicles and users, and the user's interests and preferences. And then, it constructed a temporary matching graph, and set the weight of the edge as the minimum vehicle detour distance when inserted a travel request into the current driving route of a vehicle. Finally, the proposed algorithm used a greedy method to realize the matching between users and vehicles, and adopted the nodes insertion method to insert the origin and destination of a travel request into the current driving route of a vehicle. The simulation results show that the average vehicle detour distance and runtime of proposed algorithm are lower than the existing algorithms, and the system matching rate is higher than the existing algorithms. The user's ridesharing preference requirements such as user's travel time demand, interest preference, reputation, and so on, have a significant impact on the system matching rate.
