Google Research developed a simple linear regression model to predict the probability of EV charging port availability at a station within a given time frame, using hour-of-day features. The model outperforms a baseline of assuming no change in port availability.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://research.google/blog/reducing-ev-range-anxiety-how-a-simple-ai-model-predicts-port-availability/:

> We developed a unique model to predict the probability with which an EV charging port will be available at a certain station within a certain amount of minutes from the current time
