The prevalent issue in urban trajectory data usage, notably in low-sample rate datasets, revolves around the accuracy of travel time estimations, traffic flow predictions, and trajectory similarity measurements. Conventional methods, often relying on simplistic mixes of static road networks and raw GPS data, fail to adequately integrate both network and trajectory dimensions. Addressing this, the innovative GRFTrajRec framework offers a graph-based solution for trajectory recovery. Its key feature is a trajectory-aware graph representation, enhancing the understanding of trajectory-road network interactions and facilitating the extraction of detailed embedding features for road segments. Additionally, GRFTrajRec's trajectory representation acutely captures spatiotemporal attributes of trajectory points. Central to this framework is a novel spatiotemporal interval-informed seq2seq model, integrating an attention-enhanced transformer and a feature differences-aware decoder. This model specifically excels in handling spatiotemporal intervals, crucial for restoring missing GPS points in low-sample datasets. Validated through extensive experiments on two large real-life trajectory datasets, GRFTrajRec has proven its efficacy in significantly boosting prediction accuracy and spatial consistency.
