Abstract
While the investments in rail transportation systems continue without slowing down, various optimization issues come to the fore in order for the systems to work more efficiently. One of the most important of these issues is the optimization of the vehicle speed profile. Improvement in vehicle speed profile increases efficiency in operating traffic. Vehicle speed profile varies depending on the electrical-characteristic features of the vehicle, the distance between the stations and the line geometry. The vehicle's speed profile consists of several parts, such as acceleration, constant speed travel and braking zones. The constant speed in the constant velocity zone refers to the max operating speed, which is recommended for operation in the restricted area and remains within the limits. This part is critical in creating the speed profile of the vehicle. In this study, the estimation of the value of the constant speed time in the speed profile of the vehicles used in the city metro systems was made by using the Stochastic Gradient Descent method, which is one of the machine learning methods, and compared with various well-known methods. Coefficient of determination (R2) values were calculated as 0.9955 and 0.9951, respectively, with random sampling hold out and cross validation methods.
