Since the emergence of big data analytics, forecasting future population distributions in specific regions has become a popular prominent research topic. Accurate predictions offer benefits for urban planners, traffic management authorities, and commercial stakeholders. However, most studies have concentrated on population dynamics within isolated locations, often overlooking broader spatial fluctuations across larger geographic areas. This narrow scope limits the practical utility of such predictions. Therefore, generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been employed to estimate population counts across multiple locations within expansive regions. Despite their potential, many GAN-based models encounter significant challenges when tasked with predicting numerous locations simultaneously, resulting in prolonged training times or failure to achieve convergence. To address these limitations, we developed a novel random number generation method to improve the training efficiency and convergence stability of GANs. We also set a new identification criterion to ensure that the large-scale population distributions generated by GAN closely reflect real-world conditions. The developed model in this study was validated using actual telecommunications-based pedestrian flow data from Taiwan, demonstrating its effectiveness and practical feasibility.
