Optimizing on-demand food delivery with BDI-based multi-agent systems and Monte Carlo tree search scheduling.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
On-demand food delivery services are a rapidly expanding sector within the logistics industry, yet optimizing delivery routes in real-time remains a significant challenge, particularly in high-demand and complex environments. This gap hinders operational efficiency and customer satisfaction, highlighting the need for advanced decision-making frameworks. In response, we propose a multi-agent system (MAS) using the Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) framework to enhance delivery efficiency. Our dynamic model simulates interactions between platforms, riders, and shops, utilizing Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) and Insertion Heuristic methodologies to optimize routes. Through simulations of varying complexity, we demonstrate that MCTS outperforms the Insertion Heuristic, especially in complex scenarios, by effectively managing multiple objectives and maintaining high service quality. These results indicate that advanced intention scheduling methods like MCTS can significantly improve real-time decision-making, thereby enhancing both customer satisfaction and operational efficiency in high-demand delivery contexts.
