SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BIDDING-BASED RIDESHARING

摘要

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for bidding-based ridesharing are described. One exemplary method includes: obtaining, by a computing device of a ridesharing platform from a terminal device, a trip request for a rider, the trip request comprising an origin, a destination, and a price; identifying, by the computing device, a plurality of driver candidates to match with the trip request; determining, by the computing device, an acceptance probability for each of the plurality of driver candidates to accept the trip request; determining, by the computing device based on the plurality of determined acceptance probabilities, an estimated waiting time and an estimated matching probability for the trip request; and transmitting at least one of the estimated waiting time and the estimated matching probability to the terminal device.
