Abstract
A method for managing moving agents is provided. The method comprises identifying goods agents, moving agents, and a plurality of requests within a predetermined area, generating a nodal graph including the moving agents, requests, and goods as vertices and edges defining relations between two vertices, obtaining actions for the moving agents by inputting the nodal graph to a reinforcement-learning based graphical neural network model stored in the moving agents, the reinforcement-learning based graphical neural network outputs the action for the moving agent in response to receiving the nodal graph, and instructing the moving agents to operate based on the actions to satisfy at least one of the plurality of requests.
