• Abstract: Recent endeavors aimed at forecasting future traffic flow states through deep learning encounter various challenges and yield diverse outcomes. A notable obstacle arises from the substantial data requirements of deep learning models, a resource often scarce in traffic flow systems. Despite the abundance of domain knowledge concerning traffic flow dynamics, prevailing deep learning methodologies frequently fail to fully exploit it. To address these issues, we propose an innovative solution that merges Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) architecture to enhance the prediction of traffic flow dynamics. A key revelation of our research is the feasibility of sampling training data for large traffic systems from simulations conducted on smaller traffic systems. This insight suggests the potential for referencing a macroscopic-level distribution to inform the sampling of microscopic data. Such sampling is facilitated by the observed scale invariance in the normalized energy distribution of the statistical mechanics model, thereby streamlining the data generation process for large-scale traffic systems. Our simulations demonstrate promising agreement between predicted and actual traffic flow dynamics, underscoring the efficacy of our proposed approach.
