Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In this report we give details of a Discrete Event Simulation (DES) framework coded in Python environment for simulation and analysis of a customized Personal Rapid Transport (PRT) with passenger behavior. The prior analysis of the system is a must before deployment of the autonomous PRT cars (carts) to make decision of initial investment, number of carts required and to design supervisory control algorithms that reduces the defined cost functional in the optimization. The simulation program coded in consideration of training Artificial Intelligent (AI) agents by Deep Reinforcement Learning methods similar to OpenAI Gym environment. The basic requirements for modeling of discreet stochastic simulation and analyses are summarized in the report.
