Traffic prediction for diverse edge IoT data using graph network

Abstract

More researchers are proposing artificial intelligence algorithms for Internet of Things (IoT) devices and applying them to themes such as smart cities and smart transportation. In recent years, relevant research has mainly focused on data processing and algorithm modeling, and most have shown good prediction results. However, many algorithmic models often adjust parameters for the corresponding datasets, so the robustness of the models is weak. When different types of data face other model parameters, the prediction performance often varies a lot. Thus, this work starts from the perspective of data processing and algorithm models. Taking traffic data as an example, we first propose a new data processing method that processes traffic data with different attributes and characteristics into a dataset that is more common for most models. Then we will compare different types of datasets from the perspective of multiple model parameters, and further analyze the precautions and changing trends of different traffic data in machine learning. Finally, different types of data and ranges of model parameters are explored, together with possible reasons for fluctuations in forecast results when data parameters change.
