Abstract:

To reduce the impact of the missing traffic data on traffic flow prediction, advanced driving assistance, traffic state estimation, and other traffic applications, an adaptive rank Tucker decomposition-based imputation approach (ARTDI) is proposed to recover the missing data and improve the data quality. Multi-lane traffic flow data are represented as a tensor to make full use of the spatial-temporal characteristics of traffic flow. The objective function of the imputation approach is determined through Tucker decomposition and solved by the momentum gradient descent method. Three missing types of traffic datasets including the completely random missing, random missing, and mixed missing were constructed based on the lane-scale traffic speed data of the multiple road sections of the expressway in Beijing. The experimental results indicate that the mean absolute percentage errors (MAPE) of the ARTDI approach are 11.67%, 12.03%, and 11.89% respectively under the three missing types. Besides, the results demonstrate that with the increase of the missing rate, the ARTDI approach outperforms the benchmark approaches in terms of recovery accuracy under different missing types and the MAPEs of the ARTDI approach does not increase significantly. Hence, the ARTDI approach is stable and applicable.
