  • GRAVITY BASED ROUTING OPTIMIZATION FOR GOODS OR DATA
    Publication number: 20230229982
    Abstract: From a first set of natural language documents describing a demand for a movable physical item, a set of demand features is extracted. From a second set of natural language documents describing a supply of the movable physical item, a set of supply features is extracted. A correlation quantifying a relationship between the set of demand features and the set of supply features is computed. Using the correlation and the correlation trend, an attraction between the set of demand features and the set of supply features is modeled as a gravitational force. Using a routing determined according to the attraction, the movable physical item is caused to be transported.
