Urban rail transit (URT) has emerged as a crucial mode of transportation in metropolitan areas. For the effective operation of expanding URT networks, accurate short-term origin–destination (OD) demand distribution predictions are essential. This study introduces a novel deep-learning-based model for predicting short-term OD distribution in extensive networks, taking destination choice behaviors into account. First, we perform a comprehensive analysis of station passenger flows and OD flows from both temporal and spatial dimensions. Then, we develop the origin–destination distribution prediction (ODDP) model, combining the destination choice model (DCM) with the deep learning model (DLM). The DCM aims to understand OD distribution patterns from a behavioral perspective by transforming real-time inflows into OD distributions. Meanwhile, the DLM, employing attention and convolution layers, effectively captures the intricate temporal and spatial dynamics of passenger flows. Our model is evaluated using data from the Guangzhou Metro network in China, showing significant enhancements in prediction accuracy, model interpretability, and overall robustness. The implementation of our model promises substantial benefits for the operational efficiency of URT systems.
