Evaluation of Spatial and Temporal Performance of Deep Learning Models for Travel Demand Forecasting: Application to Bike-Sharing Demand Forecasting
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Deep learning approaches are widely employed for forecasting short-term travel demand to respond to real-time demand. Although it is critical for demand forecasting to be evenly distributed in the spatial and temporal views to support real-time mobility service operations, in related studies, the predictive performance of models has been evaluated only in terms of aggregated errors. Therefore, the present study was conducted to investigate the distribution of errors to explore spatiotemporal correlations. Six deep learning models with the same architecture, except for the base module, consisting of three stacked layers, were constructed. These models were used to forecast demands for a station-based bike-sharing service in Seoul, South Korea. To attain our goals, global and local Moran’s I of the errors was introduced to evaluate the spatial and temporal performances of the deep learning approaches. The results showed that the model with convolutional long short-term memory layers, which are effective at predicting spatiotemporal data, outperformed the other models in terms of aggregated performance. However, the global Moran’s I of the errors in the model reflects spatial dependency over the regions. This suggests that the best predictive performance of the model does not necessarily imply that it performs well in demand forecasting in all regions. Furthermore, cluster and outlier analyses of the errors indicated that excessive or insufficient predictions were clustered or dispersed throughout the regions. These results can be used to enhance the model by introducing the spatial correlation index into the loss function or by incorporating additional features for handling spatial correlations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
