Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of airport passenger flow prediction, and particularly to a multi-factor fusion prediction method for airport passenger flow based on causal inference. Background Art

[0002] With the increase in travel demand, the civil aviation passenger volume has increased, which has exacerbated the imbalance between airport resources and airport passenger flow, bringing great pressure to the internal resource allocation of the airport and the transportation system around the airport. Predicting the passenger flow in the airport in advance is one of the most effective methods to achieve the balance between airport resources and passenger demand. Through the prediction of passenger flow, airport management can better schedule traffic resources, allocate and arrange resources in advance to cope with emergencies and passenger flow pressure during peak hours. For passengers, the waiting time is reduced and the travel experience is improved; for the airport, the operating cost is reduced and the resource utilization rate is increased. Therefore, predicting the airport passenger flow in advance has practical significance.

[0003] If the predicted value of the airport passenger flow is too low, it will cause passengers to stay in the airport, leading to various problems such as public opinion and paralysis of the surrounding traffic. If the predicted value of the airport passenger flow is too high, it will result in waste of resources and economic losses, such as idle equipment resources and low investment returns. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately predict the airport passenger flow. At the same time, predicting the airport passenger flow itself also faces a series of challenges. The airport passenger flow is affected by multiple related factors, such as flight delays, meteorological conditions, sudden control, etc., and the influencing factors are complex. Moreover, these influencing factors interact and are interrelated, making the airport passenger flow data prone to sudden fluctuations in a short period of time. These reasons make the airport passenger flow prediction problem complex and difficult.

[0004] However, in the existing airport passenger flow prediction methods, the characteristic of the coupling of multiple influencing factors of passenger flow is ignored. In order to make the airport passenger flow prediction method show better performance and better meet the actual needs, an improved prediction method is needed in this technical field, which can fully master the multi-factor coupling intensity of passenger flow data and thus improve the prediction accuracy.

[0010] Step S2: Determine whether Granger tests and analyses have been performed on the flight schedule, carbon dioxide concentration, PM2.5 concentration, temperature, and humidity information in the input data information obtained in Step S0. If so, use all the obtained input features as the multi-factor Granger causality inference results and execute the next step. Otherwise, return to Step S1 to conduct a Granger causality inference test on the remaining influencing factors in the input data information;

[0011] Step S3: Divide the time series of the input features to obtain a new time series;

[0012] Step S4: Extract features within each time period of the obtained new time series, establish an attention mechanism within the time period, and obtain local time series information;

[0042] Step S4.3: Use trainable variables to merge the temporal information before and after within a time period, and calculate the input data X for the i-th time period i with the attention information within:

[0043]

[0044] Step S4.4: Execute Steps S4.1 - S4.3 for the input data of each time period in the newly partitioned time series, and use the obtained attention information as local temporal information.

[0045] Optionally, Step S5 specifically includes the following steps:

[0046] Step S5.1: For the newly partitioned time series X ∈ R P×S×d , perform encoding in the feature dimension d to d m ′, and the mapped data is:

[0047]

[0064] In order to more clearly understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0065] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present invention, but the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0066] The following provides a detailed description of the multi-factor fusion prediction method for airport passenger flow based on causal inference according to the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0067] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the multi-factor fusion prediction method for airport passenger flow based on causal inference according to the embodiments of the present invention includes the following steps.

[0068] Step S0: Obtain input data information, including obtaining passenger flow data, flight schedules, carbon dioxide concentration, PM2.5 concentration, temperature, humidity and other information through databases and sensors. All data in the input data information are time series data. Optionally, the input data information can be historical data information for model construction and training.

[0069] Step S1: Based on the obtained input data information, perform Granger causality inference test on the airport passenger flow to construct a multi-factor causal association. The Granger causality inference test judges the causal relationship through a regression model, including establishing a multivariate regression model and a univariate regression model. Step S1 specifically includes the following steps.

[0070] Step S1.1: Select features from the flight schedule, carbon dioxide concentration, PM2.5 concentration, temperature and humidity information in the obtained input data information to construct a multivariate regression model of airport passenger flow as:

[0071]

[0072] where Y tDenote the passenger flow of the airport at time t as Y t-p Denote the passenger flow of the airport at time t - p Denote the value of the feature at time t - q as β p , η t , γ q Denote the regression parameters obtained by training with data. p represents the variable at time p, and q represents the variable at time q

[0073] Step S1.2: By adding the past values of influencing factors, perform joint regression analysis to construct a univariate regression model for the passenger flow of the airport as follows

[0074] Y t = α 0 + α 1 Y t-1 +…+ α p Y t-p + ε t

[0075] where α p , ε t Denote the regression parameters obtained by training with data

[0076] Step S1.3: Perform an F - test on the established multivariate regression model and univariate regression model of the airport passenger flow to determine whether the past values of feature X t can significantly improve the prediction ability for Y t . This step S1.3 specifically includes the following steps

[0077] Step S1.3.1: Perform an F - test on the established multivariate regression model and univariate regression model of the airport passenger flow to obtain the test value

[0078]

[0079] where RSS r is the sum of squared residuals of the univariate autoregressive model, RSS ur is the sum of squared residuals of the multivariate regression model, q is the number of lag terms introduced, n is the sample size, and k is the number of explanatory variables in the model

[0080] Step S1.3.2: Analyze the result obtained in Step S1.3.1. If the obtained test value F is greater than the preset critical value, it means that the current feature X t Granger - causes Y t . Then use the current feature as the input feature for predicting the airport passenger flow. Otherwise, it means that the current feature has no effect on the prediction and it will be deleted

[0081] Step S2: Determine whether Granger tests and analyses have been performed on all features such as flight schedules, carbon dioxide concentrations, PM2.5 concentrations, temperatures, and humidity information in the input data information obtained in Step S0. If so, use all the input features for predicting airport passenger flow as the results of multi-factor Granger causal inference, and proceed to the next step. Otherwise, return to Step S1 to perform Granger causal inference tests on the remaining influencing factors in the input data information.

[0082] Step S3: Divide the time series to obtain a new time series. Use the time series data X ∈ R of the input features for predicting airport passenger flow obtained as the input, where H represents the length of the time series, d represents the dimension of the feature, and R H×d represents the set of time series data. Use a scale of length S for data division to obtain a new set of time series: H ×d (X

[0083] ,..., X 1 ,..., X i ..., X P ) ∈ R P×S×d

[0084] where X i represents the input data for the i-th time period, and X i ∈ R S×d , P represents the number of time periods obtained after dividing the time series data, Each time period is used as a new unit, called a Patch. The self-attention within each time period needs to be established within each Patch to obtain local temporal information.

[0085] Step S4: Extract features within each time period of the new time series after division, establish an attention mechanism within the time period, and obtain local temporal information. This Step S4 specifically includes the following steps.

[0086] Step S4.1: For the input data X 1 ,..., X i ..., X P ) of the i-th time period in the new time series after division, first encode it in the feature dimension d to obtain: i

[0087]

[0088] where represents the new input data within the i-th time period after encoding in the feature dimension d, and d m represents encoding the feature dimension d to d m .

[0089] Step S4.2. Then, perform a linear transformation on to obtain in the attention mechanism:

[0090]

[0091] where represents the key vector within the time period, and V i intra represents the value vector within the time period.

[0092] Step S4.3. Use the trainable variable to merge the temporal information before and after within the time period, and then calculate the attention information within the i-th time period X i :

[0093]

[0094] Step S4.4. Execute Steps S4.1 - 4.3 for the input data of each time period in the newly partitioned time series, and use the obtained attention information as the local temporal information.

[0095] Step S5. Extract features between the time periods in the newly partitioned time series, establish an attention mechanism between the time periods, and obtain the global temporal information to capture the global correlation. This Step S5 specifically includes the following steps.

[0096] Step S5.1. For the newly partitioned time series X ∈ R P×S×d , first encode it from the feature dimension d to d m ′, and the mapped data is:

[0097]

[0098] where d m ′ = S × d.

[0099] Step S5.2. Perform a self-attention operation between the time periods, so as to model the airport passenger flow data based on the correlation between the time periods. This includes obtaining through the linear mapping of X inter :

[0100]

[0101] Thus, three variables are obtained, Q inter , K inter , V interThey respectively represent the query vector, key vector, and value vector between time periods. The query vector is used to measure the correlation with each key vector. The key vector is used to construct the calculation basis of the attention score. The value vector is used to perform weighted summation according to the attention score to generate the final attention output.

[0102] Step S5.3: Obtain the attention information between time periods:

[0103]

[0104] Step S5.4: Execute Steps S5.1 - 5.3 for all time periods of the newly partitioned time series. The obtained attention information between time periods is the global time series information.

[0105] Step S6: After the above operations, the local time series information including the self - attention information within time periods and the global time series information including the self - attention information between time periods are obtained. They are fused with the Granger causality inference results obtained previously to achieve a weighted effect, and the predicted value of the airport passenger flow is obtained.

[0106] In this step, the model captures the local details and global correlations of the time series data, and fuses the intensity information of causal coupling to obtain the predicted value of the airport passenger flow.

[0107] Step S7: Calculate the error between the obtained predicted value and the true value of the airport passenger flow data obtained in Step S0, and use the gradient descent method to update all weight parameters in the neural network.

[0108] Step S8: Compare the obtained error with a predetermined threshold, and compare the number of iterations with the maximum number of iterations. When either of the two conditions that the error is less than the predetermined threshold and the number of iterations reaches the maximum number of iterations is satisfied, the training of the model ends, and the trained airport passenger flow prediction model is obtained. Otherwise, return to Step S3 to re - partition the time series at a different scale S.

[0109] Step S9: Input the measured real - time data into the obtained trained airport passenger flow prediction model to obtain the airport passenger flow prediction information for airport resource scheduling and allocation. This real - time data is other data and information obtained in real - time at the airport, and may include passenger flow data, flight schedules, carbon dioxide concentration, PM2.5 concentration, temperature, humidity, and other information.

[0110] In airports of various scales, the above-mentioned multi-factor fusion prediction method for airport passenger flow based on causal inference provided by the embodiments of the present invention can be used to predict the airport passenger flow. According to the historical passenger flow data, flight schedules, carbon dioxide concentration, PM2.5 concentration, temperature, and humidity information, after model prediction, the airport passenger flow value at a future time can be obtained, providing advance data support for the airport to reallocate resources and conduct traffic scheduling.

[0111] Any combination of the above all optional technical solutions can form an optional embodiment of the present application, which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0112] It should be understood that the magnitudes of the sequence numbers of the steps in the above embodiments do not mean the order of execution. The order of execution of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.

Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
