Abstract
A recommendation system for generating location recommendations for drivers of public service vehicles is disclosed. The system segments a map of an area of interest into segments or regions and analyzes historical call data to estimate demand in the regions. The analysis also determines values of the calls in the regions. For example, the analysis estimates the probability of the calls and values of such calls in each region. The analysis may include time patterns to improve accuracy of the estimation. By using the results of the analysis along with current information, such as current location of a vehicle, current time, and real-time traffic information, a holding location recommendation is generated.
