  • Publication number: 20200134558
    Abstract: An order allocation method and apparatus are provided. The order allocation method includes: obtaining an unallocated order corresponding to a first delivery business; determining a first matching degree between the unallocated order and each of allocated order groups of a plurality of candidate delivery persons, wherein the allocated order groups include an order group corresponding to a second delivery business; and if there is an allocated order group that meets a matching degree requirement, assigning the unallocated order to that allocated order group. Each of the allocated order groups may include allocated orders corresponding to the first delivery business and the second delivery business. Therefore, joint allocation and scheduling of orders of the two delivery businesses in a same order group can be implemented based on the matching degree, so that different delivery businesses can share a same batch of delivery persons, thereby improving utilization of the delivery capacity.

  • Publication number: 20200134762
    Abstract: An order group allocation method and apparatus are disclosed. The order group allocation method includes: determining, based on a matching score between each of a plurality of to-be-processed order groups and each of a plurality of delivery persons, an order group with a lowest matching score corresponding to each delivery person; dividing the to-be-processed order groups and the delivery persons into a plurality of non-intersecting sub-combinations; and allocating the to-be-processed order group based on an order group allocation process for each sub-combination, so that each to-be-processed order group in each sub-combination is allocated to a delivery person in a corresponding sub-combination. The method of the present disclosure improves order group allocation efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20200118075
    Abstract: A delivery area division method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium are disclosed. The method includes: performing clustering process on a plurality of historical orders based on similarities between geographical locations of the plurality of historical orders to obtain N class clusters; obtaining, based on the geographical location of each of one or more historical orders in each of the N class clusters, a coverage area for each of the N class clusters; and determining, based on the coverage areas, a delivery area corresponding to each of the N class clusters. Coverage areas of different class clusters can be relatively independent of each other by using the foregoing clustering process. Therefore, automatic division of delivery areas is performed based on clustering process for geographical locations of a large quantity of historical orders, and the number cross-area orders can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20200111051
    Abstract: An order assignment method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: determining a first delivery person corresponding to an order; estimating a delivery efficiency indicator corresponding to delivery performed by the first delivery person for the order; determining that the order is a recallable order if the delivery efficiency indicator is higher than a corresponding preset delivery efficiency indicator threshold, and associating the order with a recallable attribute, and assigning the order to the first delivery person. The first delivery person can conveniently perform a recall operation on the order based on the recallable attribute. Moreover, by first determining whether an order is a recallable order based on the delivery efficiency indicator, the validity of the recall of the order may be ensured.

  • Publication number: 20200057993
    Abstract: An order scheduling method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: determining delivery capacity pressure corresponding to a delivery area within a current scheduling period; predicting, based on historical data, a delivery capacity pressure change trend variable corresponding to the current scheduling period; adjusting the delivery capacity pressure based on the delivery capacity pressure change trend variable; and scheduling, based on the adjusted delivery capacity pressure, a plurality of orders corresponding to the delivery area within the current scheduling period. Since orders within the current scheduling period are scheduled by taking the future delivery capacity pressure change into consideration, the scheduling on a plurality of orders within the current scheduling period can better adapt to a delivery capacity pressure change, which improves the delivery efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20180247265
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a task grouping method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: obtaining a similarity threshold according to a processing resource load pressure in a task source, and grouping multiple to-be-processed tasks in the task source according to similarity between the multiple to-be-processed tasks and the similarity threshold, to obtain a grouping result. A similarity threshold used for obtaining task groups by grouping is obtained according to the current processing resource load pressure in the task source, i.e., the similarity threshold dynamically changes according to the processing resource load pressure. Therefore, the task grouping result can adapt to the processing resource load pressure, and this helps improve processing resource utilization and task processing efficiency.
