High-speed traffic flow prediction method based on multi-modal fusion and graph attention mechanism

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-speed traffic flow prediction method based on multi-modal fusion and a graph attention mechanism. Short-time prediction is carried out on the traffic flow of a target checkpoint road segment in a future time period through fusion of multi-modal data of a highway, including portal frame checkpoint road speed data, toll station access flow data and road segment lane information and the like. According to the method, time and space characteristics in a traffic flow model are comprehensively considered; a plurality of factors are fused in a coding mode, a model forspeed prediction is constructed by integrating methods such as a graph attention mechanism and cavity convolution, a model is constructed by applying measured data of a certain expressway section andverified, and a prediction result and a measured result have a better effect by being compared with a vehicle speed prediction method provided by the research.

[0004] At present, there has been some research on traffic flow forecasting: the literature "Yu, Bing, Haoteng Yin, and Zhanxing Zhu. "Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolutional Networks: A Deep Learning Framework for Traffic Forecasting." Proceedings of the Twenty-Seventh International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (2018): n.pag.Crossref.Web" proposed the STGCN model to predict traffic flow. The model includes two spatio-temporal graph convolution blocks (ST-Conv Block) and an output fully connected layer (Output layer), which is used as The core ST-Conv Block is composed of two time-gated convolutions (GLU) and one spatial convolution (GCN); the model only uses the convolutional layer to design the network structure, and uses the bottleneck strategy (bottleneck strategy) to achieve the pass The scaling and feature compression of the compression channel reduces the parameters of the training process, but the GCN module in the model has limited ability to capture the features of complex topological structures, and GLU is only implemented by adding a gating mechanism to the convolutional layer on the basis of CNN. long-term memory capture
