Cooperative Logistics: Can AI Enable Trustworthy Cooperation at Scale?

Abstract:
Cooperative Logistics studies the setting where logistics companies pool their resources together to improve their individual performance. Prior literature suggests carbon savings of approximately 22%. If attained globally, this equates to 440,000,000 tonnes of CO2-eq. Whilst well-studied in operations research –industrial adoption remains limited due to a lack of trustworthy cooperation. A key remaining challenge is fair and scalable gain sharing (i.e., how much should each company be fairly paid?). We propose the use of deep reinforcement learning with a neural reward model for coalition structure generation and present early findings.
