Abstract

The scientific arrangement of the train operation daily schedule allocation has important significance to improve the efficiency of train operation. This paper presents a new train number and trip number matching algorithm based on improved best–worst ant system. First, train operation daily schedule is analyzed and the mathematical model of the problem is described. Then, taking the highest degree of match between the train and the trip as the optimization target, uniqueness constraint, morning peak and designated train order constraint, turnout turn-off times minimum time constraint, and convenience constraint as the constraints, a model of the train operation daily schedule based on improved BWAS is established. Finally, the simulation experiment is carried out with the actual trains, trips, and tracks information, the experimental results show that the algorithm can converge in a short time and greatly improve the balanced use of train, and verify the effectiveness of the algorithm.
