用全球开放多源数据+图像化地图,实现跨城市精准交通流量估计。

Network-Wide Traffic Flow Estimation Across Multiple Cities with Global Open Multi-Source Data: A Large-Scale Case Study in Europe and North America

  • 将地理人口数据转为地图图像,结合深度学习融合多源信息。
  • 在欧北美15个城市的测试中,估算精度稳定且普遍达标。
  • 适合做智慧城市交通规划、跨区域交通分析的研究者参考。

网络级交通流量能捕捉一般路网中每条路段的动态车流,是智慧出行应用的基础。然而,由于传感器安装与维护成本高,实际观测数据通常覆盖不全。现有研究尝试利用各类补充数据弥补传感器不足,但不同城市间数据可用性与质量差异大,导致方法常在准确性和泛化性之间权衡。本研究首次提出在先进深度学习框架中使用全球开放多源(GOMS)数据,打破这一困境。GOMS数据主要包括道路拓扑、建筑轮廓和人口密度等地理与人口信息,可在各城市一致获取。更重要的是,这些数据往往是交通活动的原因或结果,具备预测价值。我们采用地图图像表示GOMS数据,而非传统表格,以更丰富地捕捉地理与人口特征。针对多源数据融合,设计了一种基于注意力的图神经网络,有效提取并整合来自GOMS地图的信息,同时建模观测数据中的时空交通动态。在欧洲和北美洲15个城市的大型案例研究中,结果表明该方法在各城市均保持稳定且令人满意的估计精度,验证了该方法可有效解决准确性与泛化性之间的权衡问题。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Network-wide traffic flow, which captures dynamic traffic volume on each link of a general network, is fundamental to smart mobility applications. However, the observed traffic flow from sensors is usually limited across the entire network due to the associated high installation and maintenance costs. To address this issue, existing research uses various supplementary data sources to compensate for insufficient sensor coverage and estimate the unobserved traffic flow. Although these studies have shown promising results, the inconsistent availability and quality of supplementary data across cities make their methods typically face a trade-off challenge between accuracy and generality. In this research, we first time advocate using the Global Open Multi-Source (GOMS) data within an advanced deep learning framework to break the trade-off. The GOMS data primarily encompass geographical and demographic information, including road topology, building footprints, and population density, which can be consistently collected across cities. More importantly, these GOMS data are either causes or consequences of transportation activities, thereby creating opportunities for accurate network-wide flow estimation. Furthermore, we use map images to represent GOMS data, instead of traditional tabular formats, to capture richer and more comprehensive geographical and demographic information. To address multi-source data fusion, we develop an attention-based graph neural network that effectively extracts and synthesizes information from GOMS maps while simultaneously capturing spatiotemporal traffic dynamics from observed traffic data. A large-scale case study across 15 cities in Europe and North America was conducted. The results demonstrate stable and satisfactory estimation accuracy across these cities, which suggests that the trade-off challenge can be successfully addressed using our approach.
