Abstract
Accurate bus arrival time prediction supports passenger information services and transit dispatching, but irregular sampling and time-varying traffic conditions make the task strongly nonlinear. This paper proposes a Spatial Attention Multi-Scale Traffic-State Gated Long Short-Term Memory (SA-MS-TG-LSTM) network. Seven trajectory features are constructed from Global Positioning System (GPS) records, including acceleration, congestion index, and speed volatility. Scale-preserving Spatial Feature Attention (SFA) first reweights the feature dimensions, and three Traffic-State Gated Long Short-Term Memory (TG-LSTM) branches subsequently encode the latest 5, 10, and 15 time steps. Their outputs a... More >
