Requirements

Python 3.6

• numpy==1.14.5
• networkx==2.2
• shapely==1.6.4
• pickle

Dataset

We organize our dataset into two archives, i.e., MALMCS_data.zip and PREDICTION_data.zip

1. MALMCS_data.zip

• frames_20180101_20181101_24.npy: this is the hourly crowd flows data in Beijing Happy Valley from 01/01/2018 to 01/11/2018 scraped from the Tencent Heat Map. The last month is used for evaluation, and previous months are used for training & validation.

• pred_all_stresnet_mf4_masked.pkl: this is the predicted results from the prediction model for evaluation acceleration purpose. In the paper, those results are obtained by training MF-STN.

2. PREDICTION_data.zip

This archive provides some external factors for crowd flow prediction, which can be used to train the crowd flow prediction model together with frames_20180101_20181101_24.npy. This dataset is also a data source for UrbanFM.

• holiday features: external/holiday_20180101_20181101_24.npy
• meteorology features: external/mete_cy_20180101_20181101_24.npy
• ticket price features: external/price_20180101_20181101_24.npy
• time of day features: external/tod_20180101_20181101_24.npy
