Big data based metro crowd delivery system by Kun-fang ZHANG, Ming-ming LU, Lin ZHENG

“…In recent years,the demand for urban express delivery experiences fast growing.Several startup delivery corporations,such as iShansong,have provided the delivery services,which are promised to deliver a parcel within 1 or 3 hours in a city.However,since the quality of the promised services have not been fully quantitatively analyzed based on real data,it is quite often that couriers refuse to pick up delivery requests or the accepted parcels fail to be delivered on time.To address the above issue,a metro crowd-delivery system was proposed,which could utilize the historical records of metro passengers to analyze the quality of the delivery service and provide differential service within different period of time.The system not only meet the requirements of high delay requirements of the courier,but also as a city-wide express supplement.At the same time,a courier transit program was proposed.Experiments show that this transfer program is efficient.…”
