• Title: Traffic Forecasting on Traffic Moving Snippets
• Authors: Nina Wiedemann, Martin Raubal
• Abstract summary: In the traffic4cast competition, short-term traffic prediction is tackled in unprecedented detail. We propose to predict small quadratic city sections, rather than processing a full-city-raster at once. With the performance on the traffic4cast test data and further experiments on a validation set it is shown that patch-wise prediction indeed improves accuracy.

• Abstract: Advances in traffic forecasting technology can greatly impact urban mobility. In the traffic4cast competition, the task of short-term traffic prediction is tackled in unprecedented detail, with traffic volume and speed information available at 5 minute intervals and high spatial resolution. To improve generalization to unknown cities, as required in the 2021 extended challenge, we propose to predict small quadratic city sections, rather than processing a full-city-raster at once. At test time, breaking down the test data into spatially-cropped overlapping snippets improves stability and robustness of the final predictions, since multiple patches covering one cell can be processed independently. With the performance on the traffic4cast test data and further experiments on a validation set it is shown that patch-wise prediction indeed improves accuracy. Further advantages can be gained with a Unet++ architecture and with an increasing number of patches per sample processed at test time. We conclude that our snippet-based method, combined with other successful network architectures proposed in the competition, can leverage performance, in particular on unseen cities.

  Our solution ranks first in the Argoverse 2 End-to-end Forecasting Challenge, with 63.82 mAPf. We depart from the current trend of tackling this task via end-to-end training from perception to forecasting, and instead use a modular approach. We surpass forecasting results by +17.1 points over last year's winner and by +13.3 points over this year's runner-up.

  arterial traffic prediction plays a crucial role in the development of modern intelligent transportation systems. Many existing studies on arterial traffic prediction only consider temporal measurements of flow and occupancy from loop sensors and neglect the rich spatial relationships between upstream and downstream detectors. We fill this gap by enhancing a deep learning approach, Diffusion Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network, with spatial information generated from signal timing plans at targeted intersections.

  Trajectory Proposal Network (TPNet) is a novel two-stage motion prediction framework.
