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.

STHMoE is a Spatio‑Temporal Hypergraph‑Enhanced Mixture of Experts framework designed for urban traffic forecasting. It separates traffic dynamics into frequency‑, time‑, spatial‑, and higher‑order representations, each handled by a prompt‑guided expert built on a partially frozen large language model. The higher‑order expert uses an adaptive hypergraph module to learn evolving spatial structures, while an entropy‑aware router balances expert usage and fuses outputs, achieving competitive results on ten real‑world traffic benchmarks.

The paper introduces SCRR-Net, a scene-conditioned spatial relation routing framework designed to forecast urban cellular activity by jointly modeling heterogeneous spatiotemporal signals such as SMS usage, mobile network traffic, and call activity. SCRR-Net integrates a context encoder, a spatial graph expert routing module, a temporal Transformer encoder, and a task knowledge routing module, allowing urban contextual information to control spatial dependency selection and cross-task knowledge transfer. Experiments on Milano and Trento datasets show that SCRR-Net consistently outperforms competing methods across all three forecasting tasks while offering interpretable routing behaviors.

The paper introduces DF-LLM, a Dynamic Fusion Large Language Model designed for traffic flow prediction. It combines a spatiotemporal embedding module, a fusion module that uses graph convolution to capture spatial topology and dynamic dependencies, and an LLM backbone with differentiated parameter adaptation and context aggregation attention. Experiments on four datasets show that DF-LLM outperforms existing methods in predictive accuracy.
The paper introduces TransMod, a unified framework for forecasting urban mobility demand across multiple transportation modes. It creates a shared zone-level spatial representation to align systems with different spatial granularities, reducing structural mismatch and distributional shift. TransMod then learns transferable spatio-temporal patterns from data-rich source modes and adapts them to data-scarce target modes, improving forecasting performance when target data is limited.
