摘要
The energy-efficient train operation methodology is the focus of this paper, and a Q-Learningbased eco-driving approach is proposed. Firstly, the core idea of energy-distribution-based method (EDBM) that converts the eco-driving problem to the finite Markov decision process is presented. Secondly, Q-Learning approach is proposed to determine the optimal energy distribution policy. Specifically, two different state definitions, i.e., trip-time-relevant (TT) and energy-distribution-relevant (ED) state definitions, are introduced. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified in a deterministic and a stochastic environment. It is also illustrated that TT-state approach takes about 20 times more computation time compared with ED-state approach while the space complexity of TTstate approach is nearly constant. The hyperparameter sensitivity analysis demonstrates the robustness of the proposed approach. (C) 2021 ISA. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
