Abstract
A multi-task learning system and method for predicting travel demand on an associated transportation network are provided. Observations corresponding to the associated transportation network are collected and a set of time series corresponding to travel demand are generated. Clusters of time series are then formed and for each cluster, multi-task learning is applied to generate a prediction model. Travel demand on a selected segment of the associated transportation network corresponding to at least one of the set of time series is then predicted in accordance with the generated prediction model.
