A Deep Learning Approach for Long
Term Traffic Flow Prediction With
Multifactor Fusion Using Spatiotemporal
Graph Convolutional Network
Abstract
As a vital research subject in the field of intelligent transportation systems
(ITSs), traffic flow prediction using deep learning methods has attracted much
attention in recent years. However, numerous existing studies mainly focus on
short-term traffic flow predictions and fail to consider the influence of external
factors. Effective long-term traffic flow prediction has become a challenging
issue. As a solution to these challenges, this paper proposes a deep learning
approach based on a spatiotemporal gr
term traffic flow prediction with multiple factors. In the proposed method, our
innovative idea is to introduce an attribute feature unit (AF
external factors into a spatiotemporal graph convolutional networ
proposed method consists of (1) constructing a weighted adjacency matrix
using Gaussian similarity functions; (2) assembling a feature matrix to store
time-series traffic flow; (3) building an external attribute matrix composed of
external factors, including temperature, visibility, and weather conditions; and
