Abstract
This paper proposes a state reduction method for learning-based model predictive control (MPC) for train rescheduling in urban rail transit systems. The state reduction integrates into a control framework where the discrete decision variables are determined by a learning-based classifier and the continuous decision variables are computed by MPC. Herein, the state representation is designed separately for each component of the control framework. While a reduced state is employed for learning, a full state is used in MPC. Simulations on a large-scale train network highlight the effectiveness of the state reduction mechanism in improving the performance and reducing the memory usage.
