  5. 9. Reinforcement learning for train dispatching : A study on the possibility to use reinforcement learning to optimize train ordering and minimize train delays in disrupted situations, inside the r ail simulator OSRD

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Teodora Popescu; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Train dispatching is a complex process, especially when the train traffic is disrupted, as the decisions taken by the dispatchers can have substantial consequences on the delays of the trains. The most frequent dispatching decisions consists in changing the order of trains at convergence points, where two tracks unite to become a single track. READ MORE

  6. 10. Artificial Intelligence applications for railway signalling

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Benjamin Smakic; [2021]
    Keywords : Artificial Intelligence; AI; Machine Learning; ML; Computer Vision; railway signalling; ERTMS level 3; GPS; autonomous train operations; Artificiell Intelligens; Maskininlärning; datorseende; signalteknik; autonoma tåg; självkörande tåg.;

    Abstract : The main purpose of this Master Thesis is to investigate how front-facing, train-mounted cameras and Computer Vision, a type of Artificial Intelligence (AI), can be used to compensate for GPS inaccuracies. By using footage from track-recording cameras, Computer Vision can be utilized to determine the number of tracks and the track occupancy of the train, which would compensate GPS inaccuracies in the lateral positioning.
