Machine learning models make important developments in the field of spatiotemporal data modeling - like how to forecast near-future traffic states of road networks. But what happens when these models are built with incomplete data commonly collected in real-world systems?

About this Project

In the transdim (transportation data imputation) project, we build machine learning models to help address some of the toughest challenges of spatiotemporal data modeling - from missing data imputation to time series prediction. The strategic aim of this project is creating accurate and efficient solutions for spatiotemporal traffic data imputation and prediction tasks.

In a hurry? Please check out our contents as follows.

Tasks and Challenges

Missing data are there, whether we like them or not. The really interesting question is how to deal with incomplete data.

Figure 1: Two classical missing patterns in a spatiotemporal setting.
  • Missing data imputation 🔥

    • Random missing (RM): Each sensor lost their observations at completely random. (★★★)
    • Non-random missing (NM): Each sensor lost their observations during several days. (★★★★)

Implementation

Open data

In this repository, we have adapted the publicly available data sets into our experiments. If you want to view or use these data sets, please download them at the ../datasets/ folder in advance, and then run the following codes in your Python console:

import scipy.io

tensor = scipy.io.loadmat('../datasets/Guangzhou-data-set/tensor.mat')
tensor = tensor['tensor']
random_matrix = scipy.io.loadmat('../datasets/Guangzhou-data-set/random_matrix.mat')
random_matrix = random_matrix['random_matrix']
random_tensor = scipy.io.loadmat('../datasets/Guangzhou-data-set/random_tensor.mat')
random_tensor = random_tensor['random_tensor']

If you want to view the original data, please check out the following links:

In particular, we take into account large-scale traffic data imputation/prediction on PeMS-4W and PeMS-8W data sets:

You can download the data sets from Zenodo and place them at the folder of datasets (data path example: ../datasets/California-data-set/pems-4w.csv). Then you can open data in Python by using Pandas:

import pandas as pd

data = pd.read_csv('../datasets/California-data-set/pems-4w.csv', header = None)

For model evaluation, we mask certain entries of the "observed" data as missing values and then perform imputation for these "missing" values.

Model implementation

In our experiments, we have implemented some machine learning models mainly on Numpy, and written these Python codes with Jupyter Notebook. So, if you want to evaluate these models, please download and run these notebooks directly (prerequisite: download the data sets in advance).

Imputation/Prediction performance

  • Imputation example (on Gdata)

example (a) Time series of actual and estimated speed within two weeks from August 1 to 14.

example (b) Time series of actual and estimated speed within two weeks from September 12 to 25.

The imputation performance of BGCP (CP rank r=15 and missing rate α=30%) under the fiber missing scenario with third-order tensor representation, where the estimated result of road segment #1 is selected as an example. In the both two panels, red rectangles represent fiber missing (i.e., speed observations are lost in a whole day).

Quick Start

This is an imputation example of Low-Rank Tensor Completion with Truncated Nuclear Norm minimization (LRTC-TNN). One notable thing is that unlike the complex equations in our paper, our Python implementation is extremely easy to work with.

  • First, import some necessary packages:
import numpy as np
from numpy.linalg import inv as inv
  • Define the operators of tensor unfolding (ten2mat) and matrix folding (mat2ten) using Numpy:
def ten2mat(tensor, mode):
    return np.reshape(np.moveaxis(tensor, mode, 0), (tensor.shape[mode], -1), order = 'F')
def mat2ten(mat, tensor_size, mode):
    index = list()
    index.append(mode)
    for i in range(tensor_size.shape[0]):
        if i != mode:
            index.append(i)
    return np.moveaxis(np.reshape(mat, list(tensor_size[index]), order = 'F'), 0, mode)
  • Define Singular Value Thresholding (SVT) for Truncated Nuclear Norm (TNN) minimization:
def svt_tnn(mat, alpha, rho, theta):
    tau = alpha / rho
    [m, n] = mat.shape
    if 2 * m < n:
        u, s, v = np.linalg.svd(mat @ mat.T, full_matrices = 0)
        s = np.sqrt(s)
        idx = np.sum(s > tau)
        mid = np.zeros(idx)
        mid[:theta] = 1
        mid[theta:idx] = (s[theta:idx] - tau) / s[theta:idx]
        return (u[:,:idx] @ np.diag(mid)) @ (u[:,:idx].T @ mat)
    elif m > 2 * n:
        return svt_tnn(mat.T, tau, theta).T
    u, s, v = np.linalg.svd(mat, full_matrices = 0)
    idx = np.sum(s > tau)
    vec = s[:idx].copy()
    vec[theta:] = s[theta:] - tau
    return u[:,:idx] @ np.diag(vec) @ v[:idx,:]
  • Define performance metrics (i.e., RMSE, MAPE):
def compute_rmse(var, var_hat):
    return np.sqrt(np.sum((var - var_hat) ** 2) / var.shape[0])

def compute_mape(var, var_hat):
    return np.sum(np.abs(var - var_hat) / var) / var.shape[0]
  • Define LRTC-TNN:
def LRTC(dense_tensor, sparse_tensor, alpha, rho, theta, epsilon, maxiter):
    """Low-Rank Tenor Completion with Truncated Nuclear Norm, LRTC-TNN."""
    
    dim = np.array(sparse_tensor.shape)
    pos_missing = np.where(sparse_tensor == 0)
    pos_test = np.where((dense_tensor != 0) & (sparse_tensor == 0))
    
    X = np.zeros(np.insert(dim, 0, len(dim))) # \boldsymbol{\mathcal{X}}
    T = np.zeros(np.insert(dim, 0, len(dim))) # \boldsymbol{\mathcal{T}}
    Z = sparse_tensor.copy()
    last_tensor = sparse_tensor.copy()
    snorm = np.sqrt(np.sum(sparse_tensor ** 2))
    it = 0
    while True:
        rho = min(rho * 1.05, 1e5)
        for k in range(len(dim)):
            X[k] = mat2ten(svt_tnn(ten2mat(Z - T[k] / rho, k), alpha[k], rho, np.int(np.ceil(theta * dim[k]))), dim, k)
        Z[pos_missing] = np.mean(X + T / rho, axis = 0)[pos_missing]
        T = T + rho * (X - np.broadcast_to(Z, np.insert(dim, 0, len(dim))))
        tensor_hat = np.einsum('k, kmnt -> mnt', alpha, X)
        tol = np.sqrt(np.sum((tensor_hat - last_tensor) ** 2)) / snorm
        last_tensor = tensor_hat.copy()
        it += 1
        if (it + 1) % 50 == 0:
            print('Iter: {}'.format(it + 1))
            print('RMSE: {:.6}'.format(compute_rmse(dense_tensor[pos_test], tensor_hat[pos_test])))
            print()
        if (tol < epsilon) or (it >= maxiter):
            break

    print('Imputation MAPE: {:.6}'.format(compute_mape(dense_tensor[pos_test], tensor_hat[pos_test])))
    print('Imputation RMSE: {:.6}'.format(compute_rmse(dense_tensor[pos_test], tensor_hat[pos_test])))
    print()
    
    return tensor_hat
  • Let us try it on Guangzhou urban traffic speed data set (Gdata):
import scipy.io

tensor = scipy.io.loadmat('../datasets/Guangzhou-data-set/tensor.mat')
dense_tensor = tensor['tensor']
random_tensor = scipy.io.loadmat('../datasets/Guangzhou-data-set/random_tensor.mat')
random_tensor = random_tensor['random_tensor']

missing_rate = 0.2

### Random missing (RM) scenario:
binary_tensor = np.round(random_tensor + 0.5 - missing_rate)
sparse_tensor = np.multiply(dense_tensor, binary_tensor)
  • Run the imputation experiment:
import time
start = time.time()
alpha = np.ones(3) / 3
rho = 1e-5
theta = 0.30
epsilon = 1e-4
maxiter = 200
LRTC(dense_tensor, sparse_tensor, alpha, rho, theta, epsilon, maxiter)
end = time.time()
print('Running time: %d seconds'%(end - start))

This example is from ../experiments/Imputation-LRTC-TNN.ipynb, you can check out this Jupyter Notebook for advanced usage.
