A new research paper titled "Unequal Trips, Unequal Places" investigates delay inequity in autonomous vehicle fleet coordination systems. The study, using data from Manhattan, Chicago, and San Francisco, found that while systems are often optimized for aggregate travel time, this can mask significant disparities in how delays are distributed across different trips and regions. The research introduces a new framework called SPatially Aware RErouting (SPARE) designed to improve both efficiency and fairness by intelligently allocating replanning capacity and rerouting based on observed waiting pressures.
