Researchers have developed a novel semi-Markov reinforcement learning approach for optimizing city-scale electric vehicle (EV) ride-hailing fleets. This method addresses complex decisions like dispatch, repositioning, and charging while respecting physical constraints such as charger and feeder limits. The system uses a combination of high-level intentions and a mixed-integer linear program to ensure feasibility, and employs a robust optimization technique to handle uncertain demand and travel times. Experiments in a NYC taxi data-based simulator demonstrated that this approach significantly outperforms existing baselines, achieving a net profit of $1.22 million. AI
