Popis: Expressway section speed can visually reflect the section operation condition, and accurate short time section speed prediction has a wide range of applications in path planning and traffic guidance. However, existing expressway speed prediction data have defects, such as sparse density and incomplete object challenges. Thus, this paper proposes a framework for a combined expressway traffic speed prediction model based on wavelet transform and spatial-temporal graph convolutional network (WSTGCN) of the Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) gantry transaction data. First, the framework pre-processes the ETC gantry transaction data to construct the section speeds. Then wavelet decomposition and single-branch reconstruction are performed on the section speed sequences, and the spatial features are captured by graph convolutional network (GCN) for each reconstructed single-branch sequence, and the temporal features are extracted by connecting the gated recurrent unit (GRU). The experiments use the ETC gantry transaction data of the expressway from Quanzhou to Xiamen. The results indicate that the WSTGCN model makes notable improvements compared to the model of the baseline for different prediction ranges.
