Abstract

Predicting route time is critical for both commercial traffic and trip planning. When making judgments, riders will benefit from accurate journey time estimations. As a result, traffic conditions will be improved. Machine learning methods are used to estimate cab travel time and trajectory in this research. Baseline Model, Decision Tree Regression, Lasso Regression, Random Forest Regression, XGBoost Regression, and KNN Regression are used to forecast cab travel time. Multiple Linear Regression and Gradient Boosting Regression are used to forecast cab journey trajectory. The cab ID, timestamp, call type, GPS co-ordinates, and Day type are in the dataset is used for this research. Following that, the performance metrices are used to analyze and compare the outputs of these algorithms. The model with the highest accuracy and lowest error is chosen. Following the evaluation of the models, it was discovered that Lasso regression having MAE=1.01 beats other models in predicting taxi trip prediction, while Gradient Boosting regression having MAE=0.008 outperforms Multiple Linear Regression. The models are also compared to state-of-the-art approaches.
