Abstract
Traffic Prediction is an open-source Data Science project. Traffic prediction is the task of predicting future traffic measurements (e.g. volume, speed, etc.) in a road network (graph), using historical data (timeseries). It is built using TeX, PyTorch, TensorFlow. The complete source code is publicly available on GitHub under the MIT License, making it a useful reference for students building a Data Science mini project or final-year project.

2. Objective
Traffic prediction is the task of predicting future traffic measurements (e.g. volume, speed, etc.) in a road network (graph), using historical data (timeseries).
This project demonstrates how TeX, PyTorch, TensorFlow can be applied to a real-world Data Science problem.

8. Viva / Review Questions
Common questions examiners ask for projects in this domain.
- What is the source of the dataset and how was missing data handled?
- Which exploratory analysis steps revealed the most useful insight?
- Why were these particular charts chosen to present the data?
- Which statistical or ML technique supports the conclusions?
- How could the analysis be automated or refreshed with new data?
