Abstract

In many deep learning tasks, feature extraction and fusion in multivariate time series is an indispensable part of passenger flow prediction. Because there is also a certain correlation between passenger flow time series, it is very meaningful to successfully capture the time characteristics of the series and the dependencies between each series. Therefore, this study combined Residual Network (ResNet) and Attention Gated Recurrent Unit (Attention GRU) to build a ResGRU model for predicting subway passenger flow data during peak hours. This study has improved ResNet and attention GRU, then designed the ResGRU model architecture. Among them, the subway network topology is constructed by graphs, ResNet is used to capture the hidden spatial features between data, attention GRU captures the deep temporal features between data. This study not only considered passenger flow data, but also added subway network topology data, even weather and air pollution index data. Finally, three time solts of 10, 15 and 30 min were used to forecast the peak passenger flow on the public dataset. The ResGRU model was compared with the single model, the combined model and an ablation experiment. The experimental results demonstrate the high robustness and superiority of the model.
