Bridging Traffic State and Trajectory for Dynamic Road Network and Trajectory Representation Learning

Effective urban traffic management is vital for sustainable city development, relying on intelligent systems with machine learning tasks such as traffic flow prediction and travel time estimation. Traditional approaches usually focus on static road network and trajectory representation learning, and overlook the dynamic nature of traffic states and trajectories, which is crucial for downstream tasks. To address this gap, we propose TRACK, a novel framework to bridge traffic state and trajectory data for dynamic road network and trajectory representation learning. TRACK leverages graph attention networks (GAT) to encode static and spatial road segment features, and introduces a transformer-based model for trajectory representation learning. By incorporating transition probabilities from trajectory data into GAT attention weights, TRACK captures dynamic spatial features of road segments. Meanwhile, TRACK designs a traffic transformer encoder to capture the spatial-temporal dynamics of road segments from traffic state data. To further enhance dynamic representations, TRACK proposes a co-attentional transformer encoder and a trajectory-traffic state matching task. Extensive experiments on real-life urban traffic datasets demonstrate the superiority of TRACK over state-of-the-art baselines. Case studies confirm TRACK’s ability to capture spatial-temporal dynamics effectively.

Cross City Traffic Flow Generation via Retrieval Augmented Diffusion Model

Traffic flow data are of great value in smart city applications. However, limited by data collection costs and privacy sensitivity, it is rather difficult to obtain large-scale traffic flow data. Therefore, various data generation methods have been proposed in the literature. Nevertheless, these methods often require data from a specific city for training and are difficult to directly apply to new cities lacking data. To address this problem, this paper proposes a retrieval-augmented diffusion generation model with representation alignment. We use data from multiple source cities for training, extract consistent representations across multiple cities, and leverage retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) technology to incorporate historical data from source cities under similar conditions into the condition, aiming to improve the accuracy of data generation in the target city. Experiments on four real-world datasets demonstrate that, compared with existing deep learning methods, our method achieves better cross-city transfer performance.

HygMap: Representing All Types of Map Entities via Heterogeneous Hypergraph

Maps are crucial for various smart city applications as a core component of city geographic information systems (GIS). Developing effective Map Entity Representation Learning methods can extract semantic information for downstream tasks like crime rate prediction and land use classification, with significant application potential. A map comprises three entity types: land parcels, road segments, and points of interest. Most existing methods focus on a single entity type, losing inter-entity relationships and weakening representation effectiveness for real-world applications. Thus, jointly modelling and representing multiple map entity types is essential. However, designing a unified framework is challenging due to map data's unstructured, complex, and heterogeneous nature. We propose a novel method, HygMap, to represent all map entity types. We model the map as a heterogeneous hypergraph, design an encoder for map entities, and introduce a hybrid self-supervised training scheme. This architecture comprehensively captures the heterogeneous relationships among map entities at different levels. Experiments on nine downstream tasks with two real-world datasets show that our framework outperforms all baselines, with good computational efficiency and scalability.
