Abstract

This study aimed to develop an AI-based system to evaluate delivery complexities and reduce system vulnerabilities more accurately. The approach of the study is empirical where dataset from different systems is used to develop ML and DL models to forecast more accurately transportation time and improve profitability. Various models, e.g., linear regression, deep learning, and distributed long short-term memory (DLSTM) networks are used. It is found that the DLSTM regression model shows superior performance in forecasting the delivery times compared to the other models, achieving an accuracy of around 90%, as the model has the ability to handle complex and nonlinear relationships among variables. The findings underscore the potential of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) in improving predictability and profitability aimed increasing digitalisation in global transportation.
