| description | Short-term traffic flow prediction is an important component of intelligent transportation systems, which can support traffic trip planning and traffic management. Although existing predicting methods have been applied in the field of traffic flow prediction, they cannot capture the complex multifeatures of traffic flows resulting in unsatisfactory short-term traffic flow prediction results. In this paper, a multifeature fusion model based on deep learning methods is proposed, which consists of three modules, namely, a CNN-Bidirectional GRU module with an attention mechanism (CNN-BiGRU-attention) and two Bidirectional GRU modules with an attention mechanism (BiGRU-attention). The CNN-BiGRU-attention module is used to extract local trend features and long-term dependent features of the traffic flow, and the two BiGRU-attention modules are used to extract daily and weekly periodic features of the traffic flow. Moreover, a feature fusion layer in the model is used to fuse the features extracted by each module. And then, the number of neurons in the model, the loss function, and other parameters such as the optimization algorithm are discussed and set up through simulation experiments. Finally, the multifeature fusion model is trained and tested based on the training and test sets from the data collected from the field. And the results indicate that the proposed model can better achieve traffic flow prediction and has good robustness. Furthermore, the multifeature fusion model is compared and analyzed against the baseline models with the same dataset, and the experimental results show that the multifeature fusion model has superior predictive performance compared to the baseline models. |
