Abstract:

With the development of urbanization,traffic prediction plays an important role in the application of traffic planning and urban management.However,in the task of traffic prediction,it is still a great challenge to capture the highly nonlinear and complex spatio-temporal dependencies of traffic data.In order to effectively capture the time dynamics and global spatial correlation of traffic data and satisfy both long-term and short-term prediction tasks,an attention based spatial-temporal graph neural network for traffic prediction is designed.First,the attention mechanism is introduced to adjust the importance of adjacent roads and non-adjacent roads,which is beneficial to integrating global spatial information.Then,the spatial-temporal correlations are captured by graph convolutional networks and gated linear units with extended causal convolution.Experimental results on two real data sets PeMSD7(M) and PEMS-BAY show that the network model can improve the accuracy of both long and short-term traffic prediction.

Key words: traffic prediction, spatial-temporal correlativity, mechanisms of attention, graph convolutional networks
