A method and a device for ascertaining control parameters in a computer-assisted manner for handling a technical system is provided. A starting state and the surroundings of the technical system are detected using at least one sensor, and a physical simulation model of the technical system is generated using same. On the basis of the starting state, different combinations of handling steps of the technical system are simulated with respect to a specified target state using the simulation model, wherein control parameters of the technical system for carrying out the handling steps are varied. The simulation data is used to train a machine learning routine by means of an evaluation of each handling step, and the trained machine learning routine is used to ascertain an optimized combination of handling steps. The control parameters of the optimized combination of handling steps are output to control the technical system is also provided.

Real state information, which influences the switching times of a light signal system, is supplied as input signals to a first neural network in a fixed time cycle. The first neural network calculates estimated state information as a replacement for real state information or parts of the real state information which are not received in good time or are received incorrectly in the fixed time cycle. This estimated state information is output to artificial intelligence which predicts the switching times. The first neural network allows the artificial intelligence to also make good predictions for the switching times of signal groups when one of the many communication paths involved fails or is overloaded. It is therefore possible to predict signal group states in the fixed time cycle in real time with a high degree of robustness and tolerance with respect to gaps in the time cycle of the real state information provided.

A method predicts a switch state and/or a switch time point of a signaling system. The method includes collecting first and second state data, the first and second state data influencing the switch state and/or switch time point. The collection of the first state data includes reading of state data from a signaling system control device of the signaling system by a signaling system interface. The collection of the second state data includes reading in of the state data. A prediction model is provided and configured to make a prediction of the switch time point and/or the switch state of the signaling system based on first and second state data. The switch state and/or the switch time point of the signaling system is predicted via the prediction model using the first and second state data. The predicted switch state and/or switch time point of the signaling system is outputted.

A computer-implemented method for determining at least one remaining time value, to be determined, for a system is provided, having the following steps: a. providing at least one known input data record containing a multiplicity of input elements for at least one determined time; b. providing at least one associated known remaining time value for the at least one input data record; c. determining the at least one remaining time value to be determined by applying an error function to the at least one input data record and the at least one associated remaining time value; and d. providing an output data record containing the at least one determined remaining time value and an associated reliability value. The invention furthermore targets a corresponding determination unit and computer program product.
