摘要🚣♂️👨🏿🍼：Urban mobility has undergone drastic changes in recent years with the introduction of
application-based taxi and car service e-hailing systems. These systems provide
timely and convenient on-demand ride services to anyone, anywhere and anytime.
E-hailing is now prevalent in the traditional taxi industry by effectively
mitigating information asymmetry and uncertainty between customers and taxi
drivers; E-hailing in the form of ride-sourcing can efficiently match a
requesting customer with an affiliated private car driver nearby for on-demand
ride services. This talk highlights some emerging research issues associated
with ride-sourcing markets, such as demand forecasting, pricing and
ridesharing, as well as analysis of human mobility and network property with
big car trajectory data.
