Keywords:
Traffic forecasting, Spatio-Temporal Embedding (STE) generator, Long Short Term Memory (LSTM), Group Search Optimizer (GSO), Al-Biruni Earth Radius (BER).Abstract
Traffic signals utilized to forecast are commonly produced by sensors next to the roads that may be indicated as nodes on a graph. Normally, these sensors generate common signals indicating traffic flows and abnormal signals represent unknown traffic disruptions. Graph convolution networks are broadly deployed for traffic forecasting owing to the capability for capturing the relation amid network nodes. Nevertheless, the task is difficult owing to the expected intricacy and improbability of traffic patterns. To address this shortcoming, a traffic forecasting model is established with Nonlinear Autoregressive models with exogenous inputs Long Short Term Memory Forward Taylor Network (NxLFTNet) enabled Al-Biruni Group search optimization (BGSO_NxLFTNet). The input traffic network is given to spatio-temporal embedding (STE) generator for identifying daily and weekly embedding of time corresponding to current traffic signal. The outcome of input traffic network and STE generator is subjected to traffic detection, which is executed by employing NxLFTNet trained by BGSO. Here, NxLFTNet is combined by NARX and LSTM; also BGSO is incorporated by Group Search Optimizer (GSO) and Al-Biruni Earth Radius (BER). The measures taken for BGSO_NxLFTNet such as, Mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), Root Mean square error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) gained 0.001, 0.010 and 0.011.
