Traffic speed prediction is vital for intelligent transportation systems. However, most existing methods focus on costly static sensors. In contrast, utilizing GPS devices from vehicles as mobile sensors offers a cost-effective means to gather dynamic traffic data. Despite the presence of historical trajectory data, mobile sensor-based traffic prediction remains under-explored. Existing methods often treat trajectories as substitutes for static sensors, missing the full utilization of the spatial-temporal signals within the complete trajectory set. To address this, we propose TrajHGT, a novel trajectory set empowered hypergraph transformer model that captures trafficrelated spatial-temporal features through adaptive attention and fusion mechanisms in both the trajectory hypergraph space and the road graph space. Real dataset experiments demonstrate the superiority of TrajHGT.
