Freeway Traffic Speed Prediction under the Intelligent Driving Environment: A Deep Learning Approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The intelligent transportation system (ITS) has been proven capable of effectively addressing traffic congestion issues. For vehicles to perform effectively and improve mobility under the intelligent driving environment, real-time prediction of traffic speed is undoubtedly essential. Considering the complex spatiotemporal dependency inherent in traffic data, conventional prediction models encounter many limitations. To improve the prediction performance and investigate the temporal features, this study focuses on emerging deep neural networks (DNNs) using the Caltrans Performance Measurement System (PeMS) data. This research also establishes an intelligent driving environment in the simulation and compares the traditional car-following model with deep learning methods in terms of multiple performance metrics. The results indicate that both supervised learning and unsupervised learning are superior to the simulation-based model on the freeway, and the two deep learning networks are almost identical to one another. Besides, the result reveals that all models have their latent features for different time dimensions under the low traffic loads, transition states, and heavy traffic loads. This is critical in the application of prediction technologies in ITS. The findings can assist transportation researchers and traffic engineers in both traffic operation and management, such as bottleneck identification, platooning control, and route planning.

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.
