Stop Skipping Control over Heterogeneous Transit System Using Reinforcement Learning
摘要
A sustainable urban city cannot be envisioned without an efficient and reliable public transport system. From the existing infrastructure, to enhance passenger experience by reduce wait times, this research proposes a MARL based stop- skipping strategy over a heterogeneous fleet of transit vehicles. The aim is to develop intelligent control systems capable of adapting to dynamic and varied passenger demand. Modern reinforcement learning techniques are proven to be able to approximate solving complexities as in such problems, and using buses of varied capacities allows to further fulfil its potential. The results from simulation show that proposed method significantly reduce the average waiting times of the passengers.
