The paper introduces FairGIN, a fairness-aware graph neural network designed to predict demand for expanding bike‑sharing systems while addressing cold‑start challenges and equity concerns. It combines expansion‑simulated incremental training, attention‑based knowledge transfer, and income‑stratified regularization to improve predictive accuracy and reduce income‑based disparities. Experiments on NYC and Seattle show that FairGIN outperforms existing methods and supports more inclusive station placement without sacrificing overall efficiency.
The Traffic Assignment Problem is a fundamental but computationally expensive component of transportation planning. While Graph Neural Networks have emerged as fast, data-driven surrogates, their practical deployment is severely constrained by a spatial generalization gap.

arXiv:2608. 19381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Network embedding methods learn low-dimensional representations of graph-structured data to support downstream tasks such as node classification, link prediction, and influence maximization.
JointMatch is a learning-based framework that simultaneously handles request pairing and vehicle assignment for ride‑sharing using a single, sparsified heterogeneous graph neural network. By scoring all candidate decisions in one forward pass, it scales linearly with the number of vehicles and requests, outperforming classical heuristics and two‑stage GNN baselines on New York City Yellow Taxi data. The model achieves significant speedups—over 20× faster per dispatch epoch at city scale—and further improves revenue through supervised training and policy‑gradient fine‑tuning.
arXiv:2607. 06614v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate station-level demand forecasting is essential for the efficient operation of bike-sharing systems, yet it remains challenging due to complex spatio-temporal dependencies and the large scale of urban networks.
