Crowdsourcing Logistics Pricing Optimization Model Based on DBSCAN Clustering Algorithm

From the perspective of platform economics, crowdsourcing is a very efficient business model, and the pricing of crowdsourcing tasks is a key factor for the sustainable development of the crowdsourcing model. In the logistics industry, crowdsourcing provides a new idea of sustainable development for logistics enterprises, and reasonable distribution pricing is the key to achieving sustainable development. This paper innovatively adds dynamic and decentralized characteristics of logistics on the basis of a detailed analysis of pricing methods and uses this as a basis to build a pricing model. First, based on existing crowdsourced photography task pricing data, this paper establishes a project-centric domain and builds metrics into the attributes of each project based on the data in that domain. Then, a regression model is used to fit the completion rate of previous projects, and a multiple linear regression and optimal pricing mechanism are established. Finally, the DBSCAN algorithm is used to cluster areas with a high project density, and a pricing optimization model based on polynomial Logit (MNL) is established. We found through the model analysis that the optimized pricing strategy of crowdsourcing logistics services has a better packaging completion rate based on a combination of complex factors including bundling and outliers. In short, the main contributions of this paper are to build a complex mathematical model for crowdsourcing tasks, improve the algorithmic deficiencies of the previous crowdsourcing task pricing methods, and provide a reference for further research on crowdsourcing tasks.
