摘要

As global transportation sector carbon emissions continue to rise, optimizing carbon emission efficiency without compromising service quality becomes a critical challenge. This study introduces an innovative deep learning model, GS-Adam-LSTM, combining Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks with the Adam optimization algorithm, enhanced through Grid Search (GS), to predict transportation carbon emission efficiency in China. Results demonstrate that GS-Adam-LSTM significantly improves prediction accuracy and reveals a trend in China’s transportation carbon emission efficiency over the next two decades: a gradual decline followed by a sharp decrease. Key factors contributing to variations in efficiency include economic development, regional differences, infrastructure levels, and policy focus. Multi-scenario analysis identifies the optimal strategy for improving carbon emission efficiency as a combination of high labor input, high capital investment, and low resource consumption. Conversely, low labor input with high capital investment and low resource consumption is a suboptimal path leading to increased emissions. Based on these findings, the study proposes policy recommendations to improve efficiency, providing a scientific foundation for governments and industry leaders to design effective long-term carbon reduction strategies.
