Abstract: A concierge system identifies retail locations within a distance of a picker client device of a picker. This distance defines a zone and the system provides a map of the zone for display within a picker client application. For each retail location in the zone, the system determines a batch volume for the retail location and an average batch volume for the zone and generates a batch availability score using a model trained on batch volumes for the retail location and batch volume for the zone. The batch availability score can be a value reflecting batch availability or busyness of the retail location relative to other retail locations or can be a wait time prediction in minutes until the picker receives a batch at the retail location. The system modifies how the retail locations are displayed on the map to emphasize those with batch availability scores above a threshold value.

Abstract: An online concierge system identifies a set of attributes of one or more future time periods and accesses a machine learning model trained to predict a set of working hours for a picker during a future time period, in which the set of working hours describes an availability of the picker to service orders placed with the online concierge system. The online concierge system then applies the machine learning model to the set of attributes to predict the set of working hours for the picker during the future time periods and stores the predicted set of working hours for the picker during the future time periods.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to determining shopper-location pairs. In particular, the methods and systems of the present disclosure may identify a set of available shoppers associated with an online shopping concierge platform and located in a geographic area; identify a set of available warehouse locations associated with the online shopping concierge platform and located in the geographic area; and determine, based at least in part on the set of available shoppers, the set of available warehouse locations, and one or more machine learning (ML) models, a set of shopper-location pairs optimized based at least in part on time required by the set of available shoppers to travel from their respective current locations to one or more of the set of available warehouse locations.
