Abstract
Communication-based train-control (CBTC) systems are aimed at replacing conventional rail signaling with train control enabled by wireless communication between the train and a network of access points. The position of the access points has a significant impact on the performance of such a system. This paper presents an efficient optimization framework of access point placement through combining a site-specific electromagnetic simulator and an optimization algorithm. The aim of this approach is to select an optimal distribution of access points in order to maximize the coverage of the system. To that end, radio-wave propagation is modeled with the vector parabolic equation method, while the optimization of the access point location is pursued via the robust and well-convergent Hooke and Jeeves algorithm. Practical constraints and engineering considerations associated with the deployment of CBTC systems are taken into account. Numerical results are compared with experimental measurements in an actual CBTC deployment site, demonstrating the validity and usefulness of the proposed methodology.

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
