Abstract

This paper focuses on the problem of traffic flow forecasting, with the aim of forecasting future traffic conditions based on historical traffic data. This problem is typically tackled by utilizing spatio-temporal graph neural networks to model the intricate spatio-temporal correlations among traffic data. Although these methods have achieved performance improvements, they often suffer from the following limitations: These methods face challenges in modeling high-order correlations between nodes. These methods overlook the interactions between nodes at different scales. To tackle these issues, in this paper, we propose a novel model named multi-scale dynamic hypergraph convolutional network (MSDHGCN) for traffic flow forecasting. Our MSDHGCN can effectively model the dynamic higher-order relationships between nodes at multiple time scales, thereby enhancing the capability for traffic forecasting. Experiments on two real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
