Spatial-temporal network traffic forecasting is a challenging task due to the complex spatial relationships and dynamic temporal patterns present in each node. Traditional regression methods are not directly applicable to such graph data. Recently, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been widely used to model spatial-temporal dependencies. However, existing methods face several limitations: (1) They rely solely on a predefined spatial adjacency matrix, overlooking hidden low-level temporal information. (2) They model spatial and temporal information separately, which inevitably leads to a loss of joint dependencies, or they capture only global or local dependencies. To address these issues, we propose the \textbf{G}lobal-\textbf{L}ocal \textbf{S}patial-\textbf{T}emporal \textbf{a}ware \textbf{G}raph \textbf{AT}tention Network (GLSTaGAT). Specifically, we adopt a data-driven spatial-temporal fusion graph that incorporates low-level spatial and temporal information, serving as the foundation for further graph convolutions. The GLSTaGAT block and its pooling variant are proposed to simultaneously capture local and global spatial-temporal dependencies. Additionally, we introduce node normalization to mitigate covariance shifts, enabling a smoother training process. An encoder-only transformer is utilized to model high-level joint dependencies, and a multi-head attention prediction layer is designed for final information aggregation and prediction. Experimental results on real-world datasets demonstrate that GLSTaGAT outperforms the baselines by 32.14\% (MAE), 28.30\% (RMSE), and 20.47\% (SMAPE) on average.

Learning with Noisy Labels (LNL) aims to improve the model generalization when facing data with noisy labels, and existing methods generally assume that noisy labels come from known classes, called closed-set noise. However, in real-world scenarios, noisy labels from similar unknown classes, i.e., open-set noise, may occur during the training and inference stage. Such open-world noisy labels may significantly impact the performance of LNL methods. In this study, we propose a novel dual-space joint learning method to robustly handle the open-world noise. To mitigate model overfitting on closed-set and open-set noises, a dual representation space is constructed by two networks. One is a projection network that learns shared representations in the prototype space, while the other is a One-Vs-All (OVA) network that makes predictions using unique semantic representations in the class-independent space. Then, bi-level contrastive learning and consistency regularization are introduced in two spaces to enhance the detection capability for data with unknown classes. To benefit from the memorization effects across different types of samples, class-independent margin criteria are designed for sample identification, which selects clean samples, weights closed-set noise, and filters open-set noise effectively. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods and achieves an average accuracy improvement of 4.55\% and an AUROC improvement of 6.17\% on CIFAR80N.
