| Abstract | This paper demonstrates the feasibility of employing an artificially intelligent automaton to the task of monitoring Amtrak rail-road track system in a real time transportation environment. The neural net-based system (automaton) processes several quantities that portray the localized existence of the Amtrak system. These quantities may be one or more of location of the switch on the rail-road track, switch number, time of observation, and the switch name. Given these quantities, it is desired that the state of the system, (which can only belong to one of several distinct categories) be predicted as outputs of the automaton. Possible outputs are conditions classified as NORMAL, NOT NORMAL, REVERSE, and NOT REVERSE. Implicit in the choice of a configuration of inputs and outputs is the hypothesis of the existence of a multi-variable mapping connecting these inputs and outputs-a mapping that hopefully coincides with the real-world dynamics of the rail-road track. The neural net-based system is tested on a specific, already in place transportation control system-the centralized electrification & traffic control (CETC) system operated by Amtrak on the northeast corridor. The CETC is chosen because the clear value, which such an operational safety and security monitor would bring to it. The test results obtained in this paper confirm that artificial neural networks can be effectively used to solve the pattern recognition problem posed by Amtrak system. To the best of the author's knowledge no similar work is outstanding, planned or anticipated at this time. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
