Traffic condition prediction is crucial for executing traffic control and scheduling tasks within intelligent transportation systems. With diversified data sources, effectively modeling the complex spatial-temporal dependencies in the whole traffic network and predicting nonlinear general traffic condition changes become primary challenges for intelligent transportation systems. In this article, a double-layer spatial-temporal feature extraction and evaluation (DL-STFEE) model is proposed, aimed at accurately predicting the traffic condition transferring of the whole traffic network. Firstly, a public traffic dataset is processed to extract the spatial and temporal features of vehicles, as well as the clusters of traffic conditions of the entire traffic network. Secondly, a double-layer deep learning traffic condition predictor is proposed. The model incorporates a spatial-temporal feature extraction layer, which leverages the graph convolution network (GCN) and attention mechanism to obtain spatiotemporal features across the whole traffic network. Additionally, a spatial-temporal combination layer employs a high-dimensional self-attention mechanism to integrate features across spatial-temporal combinations, bolstering prediction accuracy. Finally, through rigorous experiments, the contributions of neural network structures on the spatial-temporal feature extraction are comprehensively analyzed and the experiments also validate the effectiveness of traffic condition prediction by the proposed DL-STFEE model.
