Exact and Heuristic Dynamic Taxi Sharing with Transfers Using Shortest-Path Speedup Techniques

Authors: Johannes Breitling and Moritz Laupichler

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 137, 25th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2025)

Abstract
We introduce a first-of-its-kind efficient, exact algorithm for the dynamic taxi-sharing problem with single-transfer journeys, i.e., a dispatcher that assigns traveler requests to a fleet of shared taxi-like vehicles allowing transfers between vehicles. We extend an existing no-transfer solution by collecting all viable pickup and dropoff vehicles for a request and computing the optimal transfer point for every pair of vehicles. We analyze underlying shortest-path problems and employ state-of-the-art routing algorithms to compute distances on-the-fly, which serves as the basis of dispatching requests with exact and up-to-date travel time information. We utilize constraints on existing routes, pruning techniques for transfer points, and both instruction- and thread-level parallelism to speed up the computation of the best assignment for every traveler. In addition to the exact variant, we propose a tunable heuristic approach that sacrifices solution quality in favor of improved running time. We evaluate our algorithm on a large road network with realistic input sets (up to 150000 requests). We demonstrate the effectiveness of our speedup techniques and the heuristic. We show first results on the benefits of transfers for taxi sharing on dense request sets, proving that our algorithm is well suited for the analysis of taxi sharing with transfers on large input instances.

Width Parameterizations for Knot-Free Vertex Deletion on Digraphs

Authors: Stéphane Bessy, Marin Bougeret, Alan D. A. Carneiro, Fábio Protti, and Uéverton S. Souza

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 148, 14th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2019)

Abstract
A knot in a directed graph G is a strongly connected subgraph Q of G with at least two vertices, such that no vertex in V(Q) is an in-neighbor of a vertex in V(G)\V(Q). Knots are important graph structures, because they characterize the existence of deadlocks in a classical distributed computation model, the so-called OR-model. Deadlock detection is correlated with the recognition of knot-free graphs as well as deadlock resolution is closely related to the Knot-Free Vertex Deletion (KFVD) problem, which consists of determining whether an input graph G has a subset S subseteq V(G) of size at most k such that G[V\S] contains no knot. Because of natural applications in deadlock resolution, KFVD is closely related to Directed Feedback Vertex Set. In this paper we focus on graph width measure parameterizations for KFVD. First, we show that: (i) KFVD parameterized by the size of the solution k is W[1]-hard even when p, the length of a longest directed path of the input graph, as well as kappa, its Kenny-width, are bounded by constants, and we remark that KFVD is para-NP-hard even considering many directed width measures as parameters, but in FPT when parameterized by clique-width; (ii) KFVD can be solved in time 2^{O(tw)} x n, but assuming ETH it cannot be solved in 2^{o(tw)} x n^{O(1)}, where tw is the treewidth of the underlying undirected graph. Finally, since the size of a minimum directed feedback vertex set (dfv) is an upper bound for the size of a minimum knot-free vertex deletion set, we investigate parameterization by dfv and we show that (iii) KFVD can be solved in FPT-time parameterized by either dfv+kappa or dfv+p. Results of (iii) cannot be improved when replacing dfv by k due to (i).
