Abstract:

With the development of Internet travel mode, the contradiction between the demand of taxi service and the supply of vehicle resources is increasingly prominent. In view of the basic theoretical research on travel demand forecast for Internet private hire vehicles (IPHVs), a large number of domestic and foreign research literature are summarized and analyzed. Firstly, this paper analyzes the travel behavior characteristics of IPHV users, and then summarizes the contents, methods and key technologies of IPHV demand forecast from time dimension and event dimension. Finally, main problems in the study of IPHV demand forecast are discussed, and potential research topics in the future are suggested.

Key words: Internet private hire vehicle (IPHV), travel characteristics, demand forecast, time dimension, event dimension
