The paper introduces LoReST, a Local-Region Spatial Temporal network designed for large-scale traffic forecasting. LoReST captures local spatial heterogeneity by relation-aware aggregation within node neighborhoods and incorporates cross-region context through mean pooling, inter-region attention, and broadcasting back to nodes. Experiments on the LargeST benchmark demonstrate significant improvements, reducing MAE, RMSE, and MAPE by 4.78%, 3.60%, and 5.75% respectively.

FedeRICo is a federated traffic forecasting framework that addresses heterogeneity across client sensor subgraphs by combining gradient-level collaboration with boundary-aware residual communication. It uses a dual-branch architecture: a globally guided branch for transferable forecasting structure and a private residual branch that preserves client-specific corrections and incorporates boundary residual signals. Experiments on four real-world traffic benchmarks show that FedeRICo outperforms state‑of‑the‑art federated spatial‑temporal baselines while keeping training runtime competitive.

The paper introduces a gated graph attention network (GAT) to better explain spatial information flow in short‑term traffic forecasting models. By adding a gate that learns how much of a sensor’s updated state comes from its neighbors versus itself, the authors can progressively withdraw neighbor information and observe its impact on accuracy. Applied to the ST‑MetaNet architecture on data from 498 loop detectors in England, the gated GAT shows that neighbor influence is higher for busy sensors, improves accuracy slightly with mild regularisation, and reveals that the two GAT layers are largely redundant.

STCFormer is an adaptive spatio‑temporal Transformer that dynamically clusters weather stations within each temporal patch, combining fine‑grained local attention inside clusters with global attention over regional summaries. The model’s design is supported by a Lipschitz upper bound that suggests robustness benefits, and it achieves the lowest 24‑hour mean squared error across eight temperature and wind forecasting tasks on three real‑world datasets, ranking first or second in 47 of 48 comparisons. Ablation studies and case analyses confirm the advantages of locally adaptive grouping and complementary local‑global interactions.
