Popis: Understanding city-wide traffic problems may benefit many downstream applications, such as city planning and public transportation development. One key step to understand traffic is to reveal how many people travel from one location to another during one period (we call TOD, short for temporal origin-destination). With TOD, we can rebuild the city-wide traffic by simulating the volume and speed on each road segment.Frequently used mobility data, e.g., GPS trajectories, surveillance cameras, can only cover a subset of vehicles or selected regions of the city. Hence, we propose to use pervasive speed data to recover TOD, and use other mobility data as auxiliary data. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to work on this challenging problem. It is highly challenging because the speed is generated from a complex process from TOD, and there exists multiple TOD distributions that may generate similar city-wide road speed observations. We propose a new method that models the complex process via separate modules and takes auxiliary data to eliminate infeasible solutions. Extensive experiments on synthetic and real datasets have shown the superior performance of our model over baselines.
