Overview

In the era of big data, traditional analysis methods are insufficient to meet the growing demand for green and low-carbon travel orders in shared bicycle systems. To address this issue, a new order demand forecasting model, named the “convolutional neural network (CNN)”—“long short-term memory (LSTM)” model (CNN-LSTM), is proposed by integrating CNN and LSTM techniques. The research further validates the spatiotemporal prediction performance of this model. The experimental results demonstrate that LSTM exhibits favorable prediction performance in terms of time feature analysis, as evidenced by the overlapping of the true value (TV) and predicted value (PV) curves. Notably, LSTM achieves an impressively low mean squared error (MSE) value of 0.0063, which is significantly lower compared to CNN (0.0082) and XGBoost (0.0074). Upon incorporating date and weather characteristics, the predictive performance improves significantly, achieving an outstanding MSE value of 0.0043. However, when it comes to spatial feature analysis, the LSTM algorithm alone proves inadequate, obtaining a MSE value of 0.0084. Thus, by employing the CNN-LSTM combination model, a lower MSE value of 0.0066 is achieved, outperforming the comparison algorithms. Overall, the CNN-LSTM model exhibits strong predictive capabilities regarding the temporal and spatial requirements of shared bicycles. This model plays a key role in accurately forecasting order demands, facilitating urban transportation planning and management, as well as guiding the planning and location of non-motorized vehicle stops.
