New POLO framework optimizes multi-platform delivery with partial observability

Researchers have developed POLO, a new framework for optimizing dispatch in multi-platform instant delivery systems. This approach uses partially observable multi-agent reinforcement learning, allowing each platform to learn dispatch policies using only its own local data. POLO incorporates an attention-based policy representation to aggregate inter-courier information and a counterfactual reward shaping mechanism to handle joint actions across different grids. Experiments show POLO improves platform revenue and courier travel efficiency compared to existing methods. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient logistics and delivery services by enabling better decision-making in complex, multi-platform environments.
