Abstract
Speed profile optimization plays an important role in optimal train control. Considering the characteristics of an electrical locomotive with regenerative braking, this paper proposes a new algorithm for target speed profile approximation. This paper makes the following three contributions: First, it proves that under a certain calculation precision, there is an optimal coast-brake switching region—not just a point where the train should be switched from coasting mode to braking mode. This is very useful in engineering applications. Second, the paper analyzes the influence of regenerative braking on the optimal coast-brake switching region and proposes an approximate linear relationship between the optimal switching region and the regeneration efficiency. Third, the paper presents an average speed equivalent algorithm for local speed profile optimization in steep sections. In addition, this paper simplifies the proof of the optimality of smooth running on a non-steep track in two steps. The effects on energy consumption from two important factors (optimal coast and running time) are systematically analyzed. Extensive simulations verify these points of view and demonstrate that the proposed approximation approach is computationally efficient and achieves sufficient engineering accuracy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
