Abstract

The demand for transportation brought about by urban population expansion has been increasing in the last few decades, and since the construction of transportation infrastructure is becoming highly saturated, it is tougher for regular traffic management measures to effectively ease traffic congestion in daily travel. Due to the wide application of deep learning in the field of transportation, a great number of deep learning models have been applied to traffic flow prediction in a various traffic environments, and short-term traffic flow prediction is undoubtedly among the most economical and effective measures to assist traffic management. In this paper, a hybrid neural network of KOA-CNN-BiGRU-MultiAttention based on pytorch deep learning framework for short-term traffic flow prediction is proposed. This model shows significant advantages of high prediction accuracy and robustness compared with traditional CNN-BiGRU-Attention prediction model, and its rapid response has significant advantages in predicting the characteristics of road network traffic flow.
