A Scalable Reinforcement Learning Algorithm for Scheduling Railway Lines

This paper describes an algorithm for scheduling bidirectional railway lines (both single- and multi-track) using a reinforcement learning (RL) approach. The goal is to define the track allocations and arrival/departure times for all trains on the line, given their initial positions, priority, halt...
