Short-term Bike-sharing Demand Forecasting under Multiple Sources of Uncertainties: A Sequential Framework with Multivariate Inputs
Jingyi Cheng, Gonçalo Correia, Oded Cats, and Shadi Sharif Azadeh

Abstract: A sequential framework is proposed for short-term probabilistic demand forecasting of bike-sharing services, considering uncertainties from public transit systems. Leveraging the transformer-based structure, the proposed solution is generalizable, scalable, and adaptive to new data. Through a case study with Washington data, our preliminary results suggest that the proposed approach enhances forecasting.
