    摘要: A computer-implemented method for evaluating a dataset. The dataset is generated by a physical process. According to the method, the dataset has a) a plurality of first data points, which can be assigned to a first label, wherein the first data points at least partially form at least one first local cluster area, and b) a plurality of second data points, which can be assigned to a second label and the second data points at least partially form at least one second local cluster area. The first data points and the second data points are separable. Creating a range of uncertainty at least between the first cluster area of the first data points and the second cluster area of the second data points; and evaluating the dataset based on the range of uncertainty so created.

    摘要: A transport vehicle system includes a transport vehicle to travel along a track, a controller to control the transport vehicle, and a power supply provided at each of a plurality of sections of the track. Each of the power supplies includes a sensor to monitor a state of the power supply and a communicator to transmit the monitoring result by the monitor to the controller. The controller is configured or programmed to control the transport vehicle in accordance with the monitoring result.

    摘要: A method and an apparatus for a train control installation are disclosed, and are based on the absolute permissive block concept. The train control installation employs a plurality of generic absolute block signal units (ABSU), wherein each signal unit includes means for detecting the crossing of a train passed a discrete point, means for exchanging data with adjacent ABSUs, means for generating and communicating a movement authority limit to a train, means for generating and displaying a signal indication, and means for enforcing a stop aspect. The train control installation can be used in conjunction with a communication based train control (CBTC) system to provide a degraded mode of operation without impacting the availability and the reliability of the CBTC system. Further, the train control installation has a self-healing feature to maintain train service during an ABSU failure.

    摘要: A computing device communicatively coupled to a light assembly that is coupled to a railroad track and that is operable to emit light in a plurality of different colors, determines a current train state of a plurality of different train states at a first location. In response to determining that the current train state is a first train state of the plurality of different train states, the computing device causes the light assembly to emit a first color of the plurality of different colors emittable by the light assembly.

    摘要: A track switching arrangement for a track-based guided transportation system, wherein the track switching arrangement forms diverging pathways and enables vehicle-side switching of a vehicle in the guided transportation system. The track switching arrangement includes an upstream pathway; two downstream pathways; and a path switching transition region having the diverging pathways between the upstream pathway and the two downstream pathways. Each of the pathways includes track elements configured to interact with one or more respective bearings of the vehicle to provide levitation to the vehicle and/or guidance for the vehicle.
