In this paper, a learning-based optimal transportation algorithm for autonomous taxis and ridesharing vehicles is introduced. The goal is to design a mechanism to solve the routing problem for a fleet of autonomous vehicles in real-time in order to maximize the transportation company's profit. To solve this problem, the system is modeled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP) using past customers data. By solving the defined MDP, a centralized high-level planning recommendation is obtained, where this offline solution is used as an initial value for the real-time learning. Then, a distributed SARSA reinforcement learning algorithm is proposed to capture the model errors and the environment changes, such as variations in customer distributions in each area, traffic, and fares, thereby providing an accurate model and optimal policies in real-time. Agents are using only their local information and interaction, such as current passenger requests and estimates of neighbors' tasks and their optimal actions, to obtain the optimal policies in a distributed fashion. The agents use the estimated values of each action, provided by distributed SARSA reinforcement learning, in a distributed game-theory based task assignment to select their conflict-free customers. Finally, the customers data provided by the city of Chicago is used to validate the proposed algorithms.

This paper considers local scour around a pipeline under turbulent *** Navier-Stokes equations are solved with a shear stress turbulence *** original bed deformation equation based on an analytical sediment transport model is used to describe the changes in the bottom *** proposed sediment transport equation is based on Coulomb’s friction law for granular flow,Prandtl’s friction law for turbulent flow,and agrees with a large number of phenomenological formulas by other authors.A numerical algorithm for solving the mathematical model of bed surface erosion is implemented in *** simulations of the problem show that under the influence of turbulent flow generated at the pipeline streamline,a characteristic bottom wave of low steepness appears,the parameters of which asymptotically agree with the experimental *** on the analysis of experimental and numerical studies of the considered case,an assumption about the self-similar behavior of the bed surface evolution is *** on this assumption,a new method of constructing the self-similar dependence of the bed surface on time and space coordinates is *** the proposed approach,the average values of tangential bottom stresses are determined for a number of self-similar bottom surface shapes,and then the rates of change of bottom wave lengths and amplitudes are calculated using the proposed analytical model.A comparison with experimental data and numerical calculations shows that the solution error does not exceed a few percent and the computational time is reduced by up to 30 times.
