Abstract:

In order to improve the accuracy of carpooling demand prediction, thereby enhancing the efficiency of ride hailing services and effectively alleviating traffic congestion, a regional carpooling probability prediction model was proposed by optimizing the traditional decision tree machine learning model using time feature extraction and Kepler optimization algorithm. An experiment was conducted to predict carpooling demand based on the Chicago ride hailing probability dataset, and the model was compared with traditional decision tree models. The experimental results show that the optimized model outperforms traditional decision tree models in terms of prediction accuracy, with a decrease of 0.044 in mean absolute error (MAE) and 0.054 in root mean squared error (RMSE). The optimized model has higher accuracy in predicting carpooling demand compared to traditional decision tree models.
