Abstract

A novel double attention hypergraph convolution neural network (A2HGCN) was proposed to address the challenge of explicitly modeling spatiotemporal correlations between non-adjacent nodes in existing traffic flow prediction models. The method used the construction of hyperedges based on similarities between nodes and creating hypergraphs through node connectivity to represent spatial correlations. A hypergraph convolution model was proposed, which employed hypergraph convolution and line graph convolution after expanding hypergraph lines into graphs to capture potential spatial correlations. Meanwhile, a convolutional long short-term memory network integrated with a double attention mechanism was used to capture temporal features. The algorithm made predictions based on spatial and temporal features. In the PEMS-BAY dataset, the A2HGCN method achieved evaluation metrics of MAE, MAPE, and RMSE at a prediction step of 15 minutes as 1.223, 2.617%, and 2.547, respectively; at 30 minutes as 1.554, 3.541%, and 3.420; and at 60 minutes as 1.867, 4.578%, and 4.224. In the PEMSM dataset, the method achieved evaluation metrics of MAE, MAPE, and RMSE at a prediction step of 15 minutes as 1.858, 4.385%, and 3.339; at 30 minutes as 2.374, 5.775%, and 4.362; and at 60 minutes as 3.046, 7.713%, and 5.479. The results demonstrated that the proposed method outperformed baseline models at different prediction steps, validating the effectiveness of considering spatiotemporal correlations between non-adjacent nodes in enhancing traffic prediction accuracy. It is concluded that hypergraph convolutional neural networks have an advantage in capturing spatiotemporal correlations.
