A Distributionally Robust Reinforcement Learning Framework for Constrained Urban EV Dispatch

arXiv:2604. 25848v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study city-scale control of electric-vehicle (EV) ride-hailing fleets where dispatch, repositioning, and charging decisions must respect charger and feeder limits under uncertain, spatially correlated demand and travel times.
