Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the existing flight passenger load factor prediction methods only focus on the recent changes in the daily passenger load factor of the flight, and cannot take into account the impact of many other factors on the problem, such as the passenger load factor of other flights near the departure time of the flight route. , the attributes of the flight itself and external factors, etc.

[0092] figure 2 This is a comparison chart of economy class occupancy factors of flights with different departure times on the Beijing-Shanghai route in March 2010. The horizontal axis is the flight departure date, and the vertical axis is the economy class occupancy factors of flights. Different curves represent changes in economy class occupancy factors of flights at different departure times curve. From figure 2 It can be seen that the passenger load factor of the flight has the following characteristics:

[0093] 1. Relevance of take-off time. Given a certain route, the passenger load factors of flights with different departure times on a certain departure day affect each other, and the passenger load factors of flights with closer departure times are closer. Depend on figure 2 It can be seen that the daily economy class passenger load factor and the overall passenger load factor curve of the 8:30AM flight and the 9:00AM flight with similar departure times are close...

Embodiment approach

[0098] Taking the real historical flight passenger load factor data set provided by TravelSky as an example, the flight data of the Beijing-Shanghai route with more than 584 (730*89%) departure days within two years is selected as the experimental data set. If the time is set The window length D=28, and the number of forecast days τ=7, then the statistical information is shown in Table 1.

Abstract

The invention provides a flight passenger flow rate prediction method based on a multi-granularity time attention mechanism. The method comprises the following steps of: constructing a recurrent neural network model based on a multi-granularity time attention mechanism; taking the historical flight passenger rate time sequences of all take-off moments on the air route as input sequences of the encoders, enabling the encoders to encode the input sequences, enabling the decoders to decode the coded information output by the encoders, and obtaining a flight passenger rate time sequence of the target flight. According to the method, the time sequence dependence of flight passenger rates at different take-off moments and the influence of the flight passenger rates at other take-off moments on the target flight passenger rate in the air route where the target flight is located are captured through the take-off moment attention mechanism, and meanwhile the trend and periodicity of the passenger rate sequence of the target flight are captured through the take-off day attention mechanism; and the influence of external factors such as flight attributes and holidays and festivals is considered, so that the model has a good effect on flight passenger flow rate prediction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flight passenger load factor prediction, in particular to a flight passenger load factor prediction method based on a multi-granularity time attention mechanism. Background technique [0002] With the rapid growth of civil aviation passengers, the demand forecast of air passenger transportation is more and more concerned by airlines, ticket agents, aircraft manufacturers and other civil aviation-related enterprises. Air passenger traffic demand forecasting includes airline passenger traffic demand forecasting, airport passenger traffic demand forecasting, airline market share forecasting, and flight passenger traffic demand forecasting. Airline passenger traffic demand forecasting is a finer-grained demand forecasting, and it is the basis of airline seat optimization control and pricing strategy. [0003] For the air passenger transportation market, the passenger load factor of a flight is an important i...
