Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligent transportation technology, and in particular to a dynamic pricing method and device, medium, and equipment based on the supply and demand relationship of online car-hailing. Background Art

[0002] At present, it is difficult for online ride-hailing platforms to accurately predict the demand and time distribution of users. If the platform overestimates demand and the actual demand is lower, it will lead to a situation where supply exceeds demand. On the contrary, if the platform underestimates demand and the actual demand is higher, it will lead to a situation where supply exceeds demand. Common reasons for the imbalance between supply and demand are as follows: (1) Time factors: During rush hour, holidays, and traffic congestion, travel demand surges. This periodic peak demand often leads to a shortage of online ride-hailing services because the number of available drivers cannot effectively match the sudden increase in demand; (2) Geographic factors: Specific popular areas, such as commercial centers, large-scale event venues, tourist attractions, etc., often have local supply and demand imbalances due to their characteristics of attracting people. In these areas, the demand of passengers far exceeds the number of drivers available to provide services; (3) Weather factors: Severe weather conditions, such as rain, snow, and storms, not only increase the difficulty of travel, but also significantly increase the demand for taxis, while affecting drivers' willingness to drive.

[0003] The following problems may arise in the case of the above-mentioned supply-demand imbalance: (1) Passenger waiting time is prolonged: In the case of supply-demand imbalance, passengers may have to wait for a long time to get service, which directly leads to a decline in user experience; (2) Driver pressure increases: Drivers working during peak hours or in bad weather face greater work pressure and also face safety risks; (3) Service quality fluctuations: When demand exceeds supply, in order to respond quickly to demand, service quality may decline; and when supply exceeds demand, drivers may provide excessive service in order to compete for orders. Summary of the invention

[0004] To this end, the present invention provides a dynamic pricing method and device, medium, and equipment based on the supply and demand relationship of online ride-hailing, aiming to solve the technical problems of prolonged passenger waiting time, increased driver pressure, and fluctuating service quality caused by the imbalance of supply and demand of online ride-hailing in the prior art.

[0069] The exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0071] The embodiment of the present invention provides a dynamic pricing method based on the supply and demand relationship of online car-hailing. Figure 1 As shown, at least the following steps S101 to S105 may be included:

[0072] Step S101, determine the current honeycomb area in the target city, and obtain historical order data and quasi-real-time order data in the current honeycomb area.

[0073] Dynamic pricing is a strategy that addresses the imbalance between supply and demand by adjusting prices. When passenger demand is high and vehicle supply is insufficient, the platform can increase prices to attract more drivers to join the service, thereby increasing supply. Conversely, when passenger demand is low and vehicle supply is excessive, the platform can lower prices to encourage more passengers to use the service, thereby balancing the supply and demand relationship.

[0074] The embodiment of the present invention first divides the target city that needs to be dynamically priced into multiple honeycomb areas, considers the supply and demand relationship of the current honeycomb area, and obtains the historical order data and quasi-real-time order data of the current honeycomb area as necessary. It should be noted that the collection period range of the quasi-real-time order data and the historical order data can be set according to actual needs, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0075] Step S102, analyzing supply and demand related indicators of the current honeycomb area based on historical order data and quasi-real-time order data.

[0076] The supply and demand related indicators in the embodiment of the present invention include the first-round winning rate A, the first-round vehicle dispatch rate B, the average dispatch time C, the order quantity D and the average dispatch time E.

[0077] Among them, the first-round winning rate A is the winning rate of user orders in the first round of dispatching. This indicator reflects the proportion of orders successfully matched to drivers in the first round of dispatching. A higher first-round winning rate usually means a better balance between supply (available drivers) and demand (order volume), that is, there are enough driver resources to meet order demand.

[0078] The first-round car dispatch rate B is the number of orders that have available drivers selected within the first-round selection range of user orders / the number of orders that enter the dispatch. This indicator indicates the proportion of orders that can successfully select available drivers within the first-round selection range. A higher first-round car dispatch rate means that more orders can find available drivers, indicating a higher degree of match between supply and demand.

[0079] Average dispatch times C is the number of drivers with available cars in the first round / the number of available cars in the first round. This indicator indicates the average number of orders dispatched by each available driver. A higher average dispatch times in the first round means that each driver can receive more orders, indicating that the supply (driver resources) is relatively sufficient and can meet more order demands.

[0080] The order volume D is the number of orders placed with the starting point within the current honeycomb area. This indicator indicates the number of orders placed with the starting point within the honeycomb. A higher order volume means that there are more order demands and more driver resources may be needed to meet these orders.

[0081] The average dispatch time E is the sum of (order receiving time - order placing time) or (cancellation time - order placing time) of all orders / the number of orders received + cancellations in the corresponding period. This indicator represents the average dispatch time of all orders. A lower average dispatch time means that the order is dispatched faster and the matching efficiency between supply and demand is higher.

[0082] It is understandable that when the first-round winning rate A, the first-round vehicle dispatch rate B, and the first-round average dispatch times C are high, the order volume D is moderate, and the average dispatch time E is low, it can be considered that the balance between supply and demand is good and the supply and demand relationship is relatively stable. On the contrary, if these indicators are low or unbalanced, there may be an imbalance between supply and demand, and corresponding measures need to be taken to adjust the relationship between supply and demand.

[0083] The embodiments of the present invention analyze historical supply and demand related indicators based on the historical order data of the current honeycomb area, and obtain the historical first-round winning rate A1; the historical first-round vehicle dispatch rate B1; the historical average dispatch times C1; the historical order quantity D1; and the historical average scheduling time E1; and analyze the quasi-real-time supply and demand related indicators based on the quasi-real-time order data of the current honeycomb area, and obtain the quasi-real-time first-round winning rate A2; the quasi-real-time first-round vehicle dispatch rate B2; the quasi-real-time average dispatch times C2; the quasi-real-time order quantity D2; and the quasi-real-time average scheduling time E2.

[0084] Step S103, calculating the historical price adjustment ratio and the quasi-real-time price adjustment ratio based on the historical supply-demand related indicators and the quasi-real-time supply-demand related indicators respectively.

[0085] like Figure 2 As shown, the calculation of the adjustment ratio using supply and demand related indicators specifically includes the following steps S1031 to S1033:

[0086] Step S1031: Calculate the historical supply-demand relationship tension and the quasi-real-time supply-demand relationship tension of the current honeycomb area based on the historical supply-demand related indicators and the quasi-real-time supply-demand related indicators respectively.

[0087] Specifically, based on historical supply and demand related indicators, the historical supply and demand tension of the current honeycomb area can be calculated using the following formula:

[0088]

[0089] a1+b1+c1+d1+e1=1

[0090] Among them, S1 is the historical supply-demand tension; A1 is the historical first-round winning rate; a1 is the historical first-round winning rate weight; B1 is the historical first-round car dispatch rate; b1 is the historical first-round car dispatch weight; C1 is the historical average number of dispatches; c1 is the historical average number of dispatches; D1 is the historical order volume; d1 is the historical order volume weight; E1 is the historical average dispatch time; e1 is the historical average dispatch time weight.

[0091] Furthermore, based on the quasi-real-time supply and demand related indicators, the following formula can be used to calculate the quasi-real-time supply and demand tension of the current honeycomb area:

[0092]

[0093] a2+b2+c2+d2+e2=1

[0094] Among them, S2 is the tension of quasi-real-time supply and demand relationship; A2 is the quasi-real-time first-round winning rate; a2 is the weight of the quasi-real-time first-round winning rate; B2 is the quasi-real-time first-round vehicle dispatch rate; b2 is the weight of the quasi-real-time first-round vehicle dispatch rate; C2 is the average number of dispatches per quasi-real-time order; c2 is the weight of the average number of dispatches per quasi-real-time order; D2 is the quasi-real-time order volume; d2 is the weight of the quasi-real-time order volume; E2 is the average dispatch time per quasi-real-time order; e2 is the weight of the average dispatch time per quasi-real-time order.

[0095] The embodiment of the present invention sets weights for different supply-demand related indicators and performs weighted processing on each indicator to obtain the tension of the supply-demand relationship. It can be understood that when the tension of the supply-demand relationship is between (0, 1), when the tension of the supply-demand relationship is infinitely close to 0, it means that the supply is insufficient to meet the demand, and when the tension of the supply-demand relationship is infinitely close to 1, it means that the supply exceeds the demand. It should also be noted that in actual applications, the weights of various supply-demand related indicators, that is, the degree of influence on the tension of the supply-demand relationship, can be adjusted according to actual conditions, so that the tension of the supply-demand relationship can be more accurately reflected.

[0096] Step S1032: Calculate the historical relative tension and quasi-real-time relative tension of the current honeycomb area in the target city by using the historical supply-demand tension and the real-time supply-demand tension respectively.

[0097] Specifically, the historical supply-demand tension dataset and the real-time supply-demand related tension dataset of all honeycomb areas in the target city can be obtained, and the median of the historical supply-demand tension dataset and the median of the real-time supply-demand related tension dataset can be determined. That is, the quasi-real-time supply-demand tension and the historical supply-demand tension of all honeycomb areas in the target city are calculated according to the formula for calculating the supply-demand tension in step S1 above, and they are sorted respectively, and the medians are obtained as M1 and M2 respectively.

[0098] Furthermore, based on the historical supply-demand tension of the current honeycomb area, the historical relative tension is calculated using the following formula:

[0099]

[0100] Among them, Q1 is the historical relative tension; S1 is the historical supply and demand tension; M1 is the median of the historical supply and demand tension data set.

[0101] Based on the quasi-real-time supply-demand tension in the current honeycomb area, the quasi-real-time relative tension is calculated using the following formula:

[0102]

[0103] Among them, Q2 is the quasi-real-time relative tension; S2 is the quasi-real-time supply and demand tension; M2 is the median of the quasi-real-time supply and demand tension data set.

[0104] The embodiment of the present invention calculates the supply-demand tension of all honeycomb areas and sorts them, and takes the median as a reference value, which can avoid the influence of extreme values ​​on the results and more accurately evaluate the tension of the supply-demand relationship.

[0105] Step S1033: Calculate the historical price adjustment ratio and the quasi-real-time adjustment ratio by using the historical relative tension and the quasi-real-time relative tension respectively.

[0106] Specifically, the historical price adjustment ratio can be calculated based on the historical relative tension using the following formula:

[0107] Rate1=x1*arctan(Q1*x2+x3)+x4

[0108] Among them, Rate1 is the historical price adjustment ratio; Q1 is the historical relative tension; x1, x2, x3, and x4 are constants.

[0109] Furthermore, based on the quasi-real-time relative tension, the quasi-real-time price adjustment ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

[0110] Rate2=x1*arctan(Q2*x2+x3)+x4

[0111] Among them, Rate2 is the quasi-real-time price adjustment ratio; Q2 is the quasi-real-time relative tension; x1, x2, x3, and x4 are constants.

[0112] The embodiment of the present invention sets a constant and uses the arctan function to calculate the rate, so that the tension of the supply and demand relationship can be mapped to a suitable range. This can better reflect the tension of the supply and demand relationship and serve as a basis for subsequent price adjustment strategies. It should be noted that the constant can be data obtained based on expert experience or experiments, and in actual applications, it can also be adjusted according to demand.

[0113] Step S104, using the preset price adjustment rules, based on the calculation of historical price adjustment ratios and quasi-real-time adjustment ratios, calculate the final price adjustment ratio.

[0114] The final price adjustment ratio is calculated based on the preset historical price adjustment ratio weight and the quasi-real-time adjustment ratio weight. The formula is as follows:

[0115] Rate=weight1*Rate1+weight2*Rate2

[0116] Among them, Rate is the final price adjustment ratio; weight1 is the weight of the historical price adjustment ratio; Rate1 is the historical price adjustment ratio; weight2 is the weight of the quasi-real-time price adjustment ratio; Rate2 is the quasi-real-time price adjustment ratio.

[0117] The final price adjustment coefficient of the embodiment of the present invention is obtained by weight calculation, which comprehensively considers the tension of the supply and demand relationship and the importance of each indicator. In this way, dynamic price adjustment can be carried out according to actual conditions to balance the supply and demand relationship and improve the operation effect of the platform.

[0118] Step S105, using the final price adjustment ratio to adjust the price of online taxi orders in the current honeycomb area.

[0119] The embodiment of the present invention provides a dynamic price adjustment method based on the supply and demand relationship of online car-hailing, which determines the current honeycomb area located in the target city, obtains historical order data and quasi-real-time order data in the current honeycomb area; analyzes the supply and demand related indicators of the current honeycomb area based on the historical order data and the quasi-real-time order data; the supply and demand related indicators include historical supply and demand related indicators and quasi-real-time supply and demand related indicators; calculates the historical price adjustment multiplier and the quasi-real-time adjustment multiplier based on the historical supply and demand related indicators and the quasi-real-time supply and demand related indicators respectively; calculates the final price adjustment multiplier based on the calculation of the historical price adjustment multiplier and the quasi-real-time adjustment multiplier; and adjusts the price of the online car-hailing order in the current honeycomb area using the final price adjustment multiplier. The present invention combines quasi-real-time with historical data, and comprehensively considers multiple indicators such as the first round winning rate, the first round car dispatch rate, the average dispatch number, the order quantity and the average dispatch time, so as to comprehensively evaluate the tension of the supply and demand relationship, comprehensively consider the supply and demand situation in the area where the current order is located, and better predict future supply and demand changes.
