传统的时空预测方法缺乏对复杂时空非线性关系的描述,且难以顾及空间多尺度特征对于预测结果的影响.针对这一问题,本文提出了一种融合空间多尺度特征的时空网络模型(MST-Net),将流量预测的回归问题转换为具有时空特性的判别模型.首先,通过并联卷积提取空间多尺度特征;然后,通过引入注意力机制的门控循环单元提取时间特征;最后,...

A spatio-temporal network for human activity prediction based on deep learning

The traditional spatio-temporal prediction methods could hardly model the complex nonlinear relationship of spatio-temporal phenomenons,thus they lack the ability to consider the influence of spatial multi-scale characteristics into the prediction results.In order to overcome this deficiency,a novel model of space-time network(MST-Net)is proposed in this paper,which transforms the regression problem of volume prediction into a discriminant model with time-space characteristics.The spatial and temporal characteristics of spatio-temporal data are extracted by multi-scale parallel convolution and gate recurrent unit respectively.Thus the extracted features are fused with the attention mechanism introduced to capture the long-term features.Finally,the prediction results can be obtained by using the full connection layers.In order to prove the reliability and validity of the model,the model is tested on two challenging social media sign-in datasets.The results indicate that the proposed model outperformed other algorithms in two prediction results evaluation indexes,namely the root mean square errors(RMSE)and mean absolute percentage errors(MAPE),which illustrate that the proposed method could achieve higher prediction accuracy and could better fit the nonlinear relationship of the space-time problem.The proposed model is suitable to predict the flow of human activities.
