Abstract
En 中文
Facilitating citizens with accurate traffic flow prediction increases the quality of life. Roadside sensors and devices are used to capture live streams of huge data and the Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming popular for the deployment of effective Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Traffic flow prediction from the live datastreams require building a data-driven model. This is a challenging task and has attracted researchers for better interpretation of the traffic characteristics. The core problem in traffic prediction is modeling a diversity of traffic trends and unpredictable flow variations with temporal dependencies. Initially, statistical and shallow neural network models were applied to some extent. Recently, deep learning has come up with proven and promising outcomes. Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) is a variation of recurrent neural networks used effectively for traffic flow prediction. Like other deep networks, GRU uses hyperparameters and a sliding window time-steps mechanism to prepare and tune the model. Better tuning for hyperparameters and search for optimal window size is a tedious process. In this research work, we present an algorithm for hyperparameters tuning along with sliding window steps optimization. Results obtained on a real-time public traffic dataset show a higher capability of the proposed method to reduce the error and an average gain of the optimized model over the untuned network is 4.5%. Furthermore, we apply the optimal hyperparameters obtained in the experiment to other deep learning models and present that our approach improves prediction accuracy and stability.
