A Practical Method for Timetable Rescheduling in Subway Networks during the End-of-Service Period

This study proposes a biobjective optimization method for timetable rescheduling during the end-of-service period of a subway network, taking all stakeholders’ interests into consideration. We seek to minimize the total transfer waiting time for all transfer passengers, meanwhile minimizing the devi...
