ASTGCN

Attention Based Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Networks for Traffic Flow Forecasting (ASTGCN)

This is a Pytorch implementation of ASTGCN and MSTCGN. The pytorch version of ASTGCN released here only consists of the recent component, since the other two components have the same network architecture.

Configuration

Step 1: The loss function and metrics can be set in the configuration file in ./configurations

Step 2: The last three lines of the configuration file are as follows:

loss_function = masked_mae
metric_method = mask
missing_value = 0.0

loss_function can choose 'masked_mae', 'masked_mse', 'mae', 'mse'. The loss function with a mask does not consider missing values.

metric_method can choose 'mask', 'unmask'. The metric with a mask does not evaluate missing values.

The missing_value is the missing identification, whose default value is 0.0

Datasets

Step 1: Download PEMS04 and PEMS08 datasets provided by ASTGNN.

Step 2: Process dataset

• on PEMS04 dataset

  python prepareData.py --config configurations/PEMS04_astgcn.conf

• on PEMS08 dataset

  python prepareData.py --config configurations/PEMS08_astgcn.conf

Train and Test

• on PEMS04 dataset

  python train_ASTGCN_r.py --config configurations/PEMS04_astgcn.conf

• on PEMS08 dataset

  python train_ASTGCN_r.py --config configurations/PEMS08_astgcn.conf
