Aspects concern a method for controlling a transport system comprising determining historical data of a multiplicity of transport trips performed by the transport system, training a neural network to perform an invertible mapping of transport trips to latent representations to fulfil, by the distribution of the latent representations of the multiplicity of transport trips, a predetermined fitting criterion with respect to a predetermined latent representation base distribution, sampling a multiplicity of latent representations from the base distribution, mapping each of the sampled latent representations to a respective transport trip by using the trained neural network to perform the inverse of the invertible mapping to generate a multiplicity of synthetic transport trips, determining a control scheme for the transport system using the multiplicity of synthetic transport trips and controlling the transport system using the determined control scheme.
