A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11967239B2) discloses a computer-implemented method for optimizing vehicle dispatching through the use of offline and online state value networks. The method involves training an offline state value network based on historical vehicle trajectories, initializing an online state value network for dispatching vehicles, and ensembling the two networks to improve dispatching efficiency. The online state value network is retrained more frequently than the offline network, ensuring real-time adaptation to changing conditions. The method also includes training the offline network by extracting vehicle state transitions, determining vehicle state values, and updating network parameters to minimize errors.

Furthermore, the patent describes a system comprising processors and computer-readable memories configured to execute the method for optimizing vehicle dispatching. The system involves obtaining offline and online state value networks, dispatching vehicles based on the online network, and retraining the online network using data from the dispatching period. By ensembling the online and offline networks, the system aims to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of vehicle dispatching operations. The method and system outlined in the patent offer a comprehensive approach to improving the efficiency and performance of vehicle dispatching systems through the integration of offline and online state value networks.
