自动驾驶按需出行(AMoD)系统依赖机器人、控制与机器学习技术,通过集中调度自动驾驶车队实现高效个性化出行。然而该领域发展迅速,缺乏统一的评估与报告标准,导致研究结果难以复现。随着控制算法日益复杂且数据驱动,建模假设、实验设置与算法实现的不透明严重阻碍科学进步并削弱结果可信度。本文系统分析了AMoD研究中复现性问题,涵盖系统建模、控制问题、仿真设计、算法描述与评估等环节,识别关键失真点。通过对文献实践的调研,揭示现有空白,并提出一套结构化框架以提升可复现性。具体包括可操作的指导原则与“复现检查清单”,助力未来研究实现可复制、可比较、可扩展的结果。本工作虽聚焦于AMoD,但其原则可推广至依赖网络化自主与数据驱动控制的更广泛类别的信息物理系统,旨在推动智能出行系统研发形成更透明、可复现的研究文化。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand (AMoD) systems, powered by advances in robotics, control, and Machine Learning (ML), offer a promising paradigm for future urban transportation. AMoD offers fast and personalized travel services by leveraging centralized control of autonomous vehicle fleets to optimize operations and enhance service performance. However, the rapid growth of this field has outpaced the development of standardized practices for evaluating and reporting results, leading to significant challenges in reproducibility. As AMoD control algorithms become increasingly complex and data-driven, a lack of transparency in modeling assumptions, experimental setups, and algorithmic implementation hinders scientific progress and undermines confidence in the results. This paper presents a systematic study of reproducibility in AMoD research. We identify key components across the research pipeline, spanning system modeling, control problems, simulation design, algorithm specification, and evaluation, and analyze common sources of irreproducibility. We survey prevalent practices in the literature, highlight gaps, and propose a structured framework to assess and improve reproducibility. Specifically, concrete guidelines are offered, along with a "reproducibility checklist", to support future work in achieving replicable, comparable, and extensible results. While focused on AMoD, the principles and practices we advocate generalize to a broader class of cyber-physical systems that rely on networked autonomy and data-driven control. This work aims to lay the foundation for a more transparent and reproducible research culture in the design and deployment of intelligent mobility systems.
