Scalable Dynamic Mixture Model with Full Covariance for Probabilistic Traffic Forecasting

no code implementations10 Dec 2022 Seongjin Choi, Nicolas Saunier, Vincent Zhihao Zheng, Martin Trepanier, Lijun Sun

Deep learning-based multivariate and multistep-ahead traffic forecasting models are typically trained with the mean squared error (MSE) or mean absolute error (MAE) as the loss function in a sequence-to-sequence setting, simply assuming that the errors follow an independent and isotropic Gaussian or Laplacian distributions.
