Researchers have developed a novel approach called GNN-LBBD, which combines graph neural networks with logic-based Benders decomposition to optimize train rescheduling in the face of disruptions. This method aims to minimize worst-case expected total completion delay by jointly optimizing train routes, sequences, and timings under uncertainty. In tests on 28 instances for a five-track station, GNN-LBBD outperformed tabu search and variable neighborhood search, achieving a 16.63% and 20.06% reduction in mean total completion delay, respectively.
