Nonlinear Traffic Prediction as a Matrix Completion Problem with Ensemble Learning
arXiv ·
The paper introduces a novel method for short-term, high-resolution traffic prediction, modeling it as a matrix completion problem solved via block-coordinate descent. An ensemble learning approach is used to capture periodic patterns and reduce training error. The method is validated using both simulated and real-world traffic data from Abu Dhabi, demonstrating superior performance compared to other algorithms.
