Researchers have developed a novel quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithm combined with neighborhood search (QEA-NS) to optimize train arrival and departure track utilization during short-term railway disruptions. This algorithm was tested against CP-SAT using timetable data from Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof, Germany. QEA-NS demonstrated a 25.2% reduction in total delay compared to CP-SAT, achieving lower delays in all tested perturbation instances, though it required a longer solution time. AI
IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient railway operations and reduced passenger delays through improved AI-driven scheduling.
