  • Abstract
    In this paper, the question of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques usage is discussed in the light of European standards. An application of predictive fuzzy logic for a train control system is then presented and a solution for the question is employed. Some benefits like headway shortening and less energy consumption may be achieved. Finally, some conclusions taken from the application results lead to the possibility of using Al techniques without compromising the system safety.
