- Abstract
- As rail transport becomes more important, the e±cient operation of it will
be more required. We considered two issues on this regard, one is on collecting
and analyzing information related to rail transport, and the other is on ¯nding
solutions to operations based on the analysis of relevant information.
For the first issue, we consider the estimation of passengers' connection.
The estimation of passengers' connection lies at a culmination of Smart Card
data analysis. Such an estimation has an enormous impact on planning and
operation of a public transit network. We propose a method for this purpose
by exploiting the alighting and boarding behavior of passengers from Smart
Card data analysis.
For the second issue, we consider the e±cient operation for a train-conflict
resolution. In practice, a train-conflict resolution is decentralized around dispatchers each of whom controls a few segments in a global railway network
with her rule-of-thumb to operational data. Conceptually, the global sub-
optimality or infeasibility of the decentralized system is resolved by a network
controller who coordinates the dispatchers and train operators at the lower
layers on a real-time basis. However, such notion of a multi-layer system
cannot be effectual unless the top layer is able to provide a global solution
soon enough for the dynamic lower layers to adapt in a seamless manner. Unfortunately, a train-conflict resolution problem is NP-hard and an effective
solution method traded off between computation time and solution quality
has been lacking in literature. Thus, we propose a column-generation-based
algorithm that exploits the separability of the problem. A key ingredient
of the algorithm is an efficient heuristic for the pricing subproblem for column generation. The performance of the proposed algorithm is compared to
the ones of the previous MIP-based heuristic by [41] and the priority-based
heuristic by [36].
