Abstract
A train operation control system includes: a headcount estimation device that estimates the number of people in a train and the number of people on a platform by using video data outputted from a plurality of on-board cameras and a plurality of ground cameras; and a train rescheduling device that predicts a dwell time required for passengers to board and detrain from the train using the estimated headcount information estimated by the headcount estimation device and schedule information stored in an operation management device, and accordingly performs train operation rescheduling. The train operation control system can predict the dwell time accurately and accordingly perform train operation rescheduling even when the number of passengers fluctuates.
