• Abstract: Because of increased urban complexity and growing populations, more and more challenges about predicting city-wide mobility behavior are being organized. Traffic Map Movie Forecasting Challenge 2020 is secondly held in the competition track of the Thirty-fourth Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS). Similar to Traffic4Cast 2019, the task is to predict traffic flow volume, average speed in major directions on the geographical area of three big cities: Berlin, Istanbul, and Moscow. In this paper, we apply the attention mechanism on U-Net based model, especially we add an attention gate on the skip-connection between contraction path and expansion path. An attention gates filter features from the contraction path before combining with features on the expansion path, it enables our model to reduce the effect of non-traffic region features and focus more on crucial region features. In addition to the competition data, we also propose two extra features which often affect traffic flow, that are time and weekdays. We experiment with our model on the competition dataset and reproduce the winner solution in the same environment. Overall, our model archives better performance than recent methods.

  Long-term urban mobility predictions play a crucial role in the effective management of urban facilities and services. Traditionally, urban mobility data has been structured as videos, treating longitude and latitude as fundamental pixels. In our research, we introduce a fresh perspective on urban mobility prediction. Instead of oversimplifying urban mobility data as traditional video data, we regard it as a complex time series.

  We present a novel framework for modeling traffic congestion events over road networks. Using multi-modal data by combining count data from traffic sensors with police reports that report traffic incidents, we aim to capture two types of triggering effect for congestion events. Current traffic congestion at one location may cause future congestion over the road network, and traffic incidents may cause spread traffic congestion.
