Air quality forecasting has been regarded as the key problem of air pollution early warning and control management. In this paper, we propose a novel deep learning model for air quality (mainly PM2.5) forecasting, which learns the spatial-temporal correlation features and interdependence of multivariate air quality related time series data by hybrid deep learning architecture. Due to the nonlinear and dynamic characteristics of multivariate air quality time series data, the base modules of our model include one-dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks (1D-CNNs) and Bi-directional Long Short-term Memory networks (Bi-LSTM). The former is to extract the local trend features and spatial correlation features, and the latter is to learn spatial-temporal dependencies. Then we design a jointly hybrid deep learning framework based on one-dimensional CNNs and Bi-LSTM for shared representation features learning of multivariate air quality related time series data. We conduct extensive experimental evaluations using two real-world datasets, and the results show that our model is capable of dealing with PM2.5 air pollution forecasting with satisfied accuracy.Index Terms-Air quality forecasting, deep learning, convolutional neural networks, long short-term memory networks ---------- ----------

Traffic flow forecasting has been regarded as a key problem of intelligent transport systems. In this work, we propose a hybrid multimodal deep learning method for short-term traffic flow forecasting, which can jointly and adaptively learn the spatialtemporal correlation features and long temporal interdependence of multi-modality traffic data by an attention auxiliary multimodal deep learning architecture. According to the highly nonlinear characteristics of multi-modality traffic data, the base module of our method consists of one-dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks (1D CNN) and Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) with the attention mechanism. The former is to capture the local trend features and the latter is to capture the long temporal dependencies. Then, we design a hybrid multimodal deep learning framework for fusing share representation features of different modality traffic data by multiple CNN-GRU-Attention modules. The experimental results indicate that the proposed multimodal deep learning model is capable of dealing with complex nonlinear urban traffic flow forecasting with satisfying accuracy and effectiveness.
