英文摘要：

This technical report presents a solution for the 2020 Traffic4Cast Challenge. We consider the traffic forecasting problem as a future frame prediction task with relatively weak temporal dependencies (might be due to stochastic urban traffic dynamics) and strong prior knowledge, \textit{i.e.}, the roadmaps of the cities. For these reasons, we use the U-Net as the backbone model, and we propose a roadmap generation method to make the predicted traffic flows more rational. Meanwhile, we use a fine-tuning strategy based on the validation set to prevent overfitting, which effectively improves the prediction results. At the end of this report, we further discuss several approaches that we have considered or could be explored in future work: (1) harnessing inherent data patterns, such as seasonality; (2) distilling and transferring common knowledge between different cities. We also analyze the validity of the evaluation metric.

Learning to Transfer for Traffic Forecasting via Multi-task Learning

Layer 6 AI

Deep neural networks have demonstrated superior performance in short-term traffic forecasting. However, most existing traffic forecasting systems assume that the training and testing data are drawn from the same underlying distribution, which limits their practical applicability. The NeurIPS 2021 Traffic4cast challenge is the first of its kind dedicated to benchmarking the robustness of traffic forecasting models towards domain shifts in space and time. This technical report describes our solution to this challenge. In particular, we present a multi-task learning framework for temporal and spa…

SwinUNet3D -- A Hierarchical Architecture for Deep Traffic Prediction using Shifted Window Transformers

Khalifa University（哈利法大学）

Traffic forecasting is an important element of mobility management, an important key that drives the logistics industry. Over the years, lots of work have been done in Traffic forecasting using time series as well as spatiotemporal dynamic forecasting. In this paper, we explore the use of vision transformer in a UNet setting. We completely remove all convolution-based building blocks in UNet, while using 3D shifted window transformer in both encoder and decoder branches. In addition, we experiment with the use of feature mixing just before patch encoding to control the inter-relationship of th…

Traffic Accident Risk Forecasting using Contextual Vision Transformers

University of Technology Sydney（悉尼科技大学）

Recently, the problem of traffic accident risk forecasting has been getting the attention of the intelligent transportation systems community due to its significant impact on traffic clearance. This problem is commonly tackled in the literature by using data-driven approaches that model the spatial and temporal incident impact, since they were shown to be crucial for the traffic accident risk forecasting problem. To achieve this, most approaches build different architectures to capture the spatio-temporal correlations features, making them inefficient for large traffic accident datasets. Thus,…

Traffic Forecasting on Traffic Moving Snippets

ETH Zurich（苏黎世联邦理工学院）

Advances in traffic forecasting technology can greatly impact urban mobility. In the traffic4cast competition, the task of short-term traffic prediction is tackled in unprecedented detail, with traffic volume and speed information available at 5 minute intervals and high spatial resolution. To improve generalization to unknown cities, as required in the 2021 extended challenge, we propose to predict small quadratic city sections, rather than processing a full-city-raster at once. At test time, breaking down the test data into spatially-cropped overlapping snippets improves stability and robust…

A Hybrid Traffic Speed Forecasting Approach Integrating Wavelet Transform and Motif-based Graph Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network

State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Survey, Mapping and Remote Sensing（测绘遥感信息工程国家重点实验室）

Traffic forecasting is crucial for urban traffic management and guidance. However, existing methods rarely exploit the time-frequency properties of traffic speed observations, and often neglect the propagation of traffic flows from upstream to downstream road segments. In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach that learns the spatio-temporal dependency in traffic flows and predicts short-term traffic speeds on a road network. Specifically, we employ wavelet transform to decompose raw traffic data into several components with different frequency sub-bands. A Motif-based Graph Convolutional Re…

ProSTformer: Pre-trained Progressive Space-Time Self-attention Model for Traffic Flow Forecasting

School of Business Administration, Faculty of Business Administration, Southwestern University of Finance and Economics（西南财经大学工商管理学院）

Traffic flow forecasting is essential and challenging to intelligent city management and public safety. Recent studies have shown the potential of convolution-free Transformer approach to extract the dynamic dependencies among complex influencing factors. However, two issues prevent the approach from being effectively applied in traffic flow forecasting. First, it ignores the spatiotemporal structure of the traffic flow videos. Second, for a long sequence, it is hard to focus on crucial attention due to the quadratic times dot-product computation. To address the two issues, we first factorize …

Traffic4cast-Traffic Map Movie Forecasting -- Team MIE-Lab

Institute of Cartography and Geoinformation, ETH Zurich（苏黎世联邦理工学院制图与地理信息研究所）；Visual Geometry Group, University of Oxford（牛津大学视觉几何组）

The goal of the IARAI competition traffic4cast was to predict the city-wide traffic status within a 15-minute time window, based on information from the previous hour. The traffic status was given as multi-channel images (one pixel roughly corresponds to 100x100 meters), where one channel indicated the traffic volume, another one the average speed of vehicles, and a third one their rough heading. As part of our work on the competition, we evaluated many different network architectures, analyzed the statistical properties of the given data in detail, and thought about how to transform the probl…

Traffic Flow Forecasting with Maintenance Downtime via Multi-Channel Attention-Based Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolutional Networks

George Mason University（乔治梅森大学）

Forecasting traffic flows is a central task in intelligent transportation system management. Graph structures have shown promise as a modeling framework, with recent advances in spatio-temporal modeling via graph convolution neural networks, improving the performance or extending the prediction horizon on traffic flows. However, a key shortcoming of state-of-the-art methods is their inability to take into account information of various modalities, for instance the impact of maintenance downtime on traffic flows. This is the issue we address in this paper. Specifically, we propose a novel model…

Because Every Sensor Is Unique, so Is Every Pair: Handling Dynamicity in Traffic Forecasting

RMIT University（皇家墨尔本理工大学）；Data61/CSIRO（联邦科学与工业研究组织Data61）；UC Davis（加州大学戴维斯分校）；UNSW（新南威尔士大学）；ANU（澳大利亚国立大学）

Traffic forecasting is a critical task to extract values from cyber-physical infrastructures, which is the backbone of smart transportation. However owing to external contexts, the dynamics at each sensor are unique. For example, the afternoon peaks at sensors near schools are more likely to occur earlier than those near residential areas. In this paper, we first analyze real-world traffic data to show that each sensor has a unique dynamic. Further analysis also shows that each pair of sensors also has a unique dynamic. Then, we explore how node embedding learns the unique dynamics at every se…

Ateneo de Manila University（马尼拉雅典耀大学）

The widespread adoption of smartphones in recent years has made it possible for us to collect large amounts of traffic data. Special software installed on the phones of drivers allow us to gather GPS trajectories of their vehicles on the road network. In this paper, we simulate the trajectories of multiple agents on a road network and use various models to forecast the short-term traffic speed of various links. Our results show that traditional techniques like multiple regression and artificial neural networks work well but simpler adaptive models that do not require prior training also perfor…
