contents The growing demand for ride-hailing services has led to an increasing need for accurate taxi demand prediction. Existing systems are limited to specific regions, lacking generality to unseen areas. This paper presents a novel taxi demand prediction system, harnessing the strengths of multiview graph neural networks to capture spatial-temporal dependencies and patterns in urban environments. Additionally, the proposed system CROSS-Net employs a spatially transferable approach, enabling it to train a model that can be deployed to previously unseen regions. To achieve this, the framework incorporates the power of a Variational Autoencoder to disentangle the input features into region-specific and region-agnostic components. The region-agnostic features facilitate cross-region taxi demand predictions, allowing the model to generalize well across different urban areas. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of CROSS-Net in accurately forecasting taxi demand, even in previously unobserved regions, thus showcasing its potential for optimizing taxi services and improving transportation efficiency on a broader scale.
