A Sparse Optimization Approach for Energy-Efficient Timetabling in Metro Railway Systems

In this paper, we propose a sparse optimization approach to maximize the utilization of regenerative energy produced by braking trains for energy-efficient timetabling in metro railway systems. By introducing the cardinality function and the square of the Euclidean norm function as the objective fun...
