Traffic Volume Prediction
Traffic volume prediction aims to forecast traffic flow, crucial for optimizing transportation systems and mitigating congestion. Current research heavily utilizes deep learning models, such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), and ensemble methods, often incorporating spatio-temporal data from various sources (e.g., sensor networks, satellite imagery) to capture complex traffic patterns. These advancements improve the accuracy of both short-term and long-term predictions, impacting traffic management, urban planning, and the efficiency of transportation services like ride-sharing. The field is actively exploring methods to handle data heterogeneity, outliers, and uncertainties inherent in real-world traffic conditions.
