Abstract

Firstly, we formulate the bi-objective timetable optimization problem as an expected value model with speed profile control. Secondly, we use the ɛ-constraint method within a genetic algorithm framework to determine the Pareto optimal solutions. Finally, numerical examples based on the real-life operation data from the Beijing Metro Yizhuang Line are presented in order to illustrate the practicability and effectiveness of the approach developed in the paper.
