Book Personalized POI Recommendation on Location based Social Networks

Download or read book Personalized POI Recommendation on Location based Social Networks written by Huiji Gao and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid urban expansion has greatly extended the physical boundary of our living area, along with a large number of POIs (points of interest) being developed. A POI is a specific location (e.g., hotel, restaurant, theater, mall) that a user may find useful or interesting. When exploring the city and neighborhood, the increasing number of POIs could enrich people's daily life, providing them with more choices of life experience than before, while at the same time also brings the problem of "curse of choices", resulting in the difficulty for a user to make a satisfied decision on "where to go" in an efficient way. Personalized POI recommendation is a task proposed on purpose of helping users filter out uninteresting POIs and reduce time in decision making, which could also benefit virtual marketing. Developing POI recommender systems requires observation of human mobility w.r.t. real-world POIs, which is infeasible with traditional mobile data. However, the recent development of location-based social networks (LBSNs) provides such observation. Typical location-based social networking sites allow users to "check in" at POIs with smartphones, leave tips and share that experience with their online friends. The increasing number of LBSN users has generated large amounts of LBSN data, providing an unprecedented opportunity to study human mobility for personalized POI recommendation in spatial, temporal, social, and content aspects. Different from recommender systems in other categories, e.g., movie recommendation in NetFlix, friend recommendation in dating websites, item recommendation in online shopping sites, personalized POI recommendation on LBSNs has its unique challenges due to the stochastic property of human mobility and the mobile behavior indications provided by LBSN information layout. The strong correlations between geographical POI information and other LBSN information result in three major human mobile properties, i.e., geo-social correlations, geo-temporal patterns, and geo-content indications, which are neither observed in other recommender systems, nor exploited in current POI recommendation. In this dissertation, we investigate these properties on LBSNs, and propose personalized POI recommendation models accordingly. The performance evaluated on real-world LBSN datasets validates the power of these properties in capturing user mobility, and demonstrates the ability of our models for personalized POI recommendation.

Book Recommendation in Location based Social Networks

Download or read book Recommendation in Location based Social Networks written by Bo Hu and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recommender systems have become popular tools to select relevant personalized information for users. With the rapid growth of mobile network users, the way users consume Web 2.0 is changing substantially. Mobile networks enable users to post personal status on online social media services from anywhere and at anytime. However, as the volume of user activities is growing rapidly, it is getting impossible that for users to read all posts or blogs to catch up with the trends. Similarly, it is hard for producers and manufactures to monitor consumers and figure out their tastes. These needs inspired the emergence of a new line of research, recommendation in location-based social networks, i.e., building recommender systems to discover and predict the behavior of users and their engagement with location-based social networks. Extracted users' interests and their spatio-temporal patterns clearly provide more detailed information for producers to make decisions to supply their consumers. In this thesis, we address the problem of recommendation in location-based social networks and seek novel methods to improve limitations of existing techniques. We first propose a spatial topic model for top-k POI recommendation problem, and the proposed model discovers users' topic and geographical distributions from user check-ins with posts and location coordinates. Then we focus on mining spatio-temporal patterns of user check-ins and propose a spatio-temporal topic model to identify temporal activity patterns of different topics and POIs. In our next work, we argue that all existing social network-based POI recommendation models cannot capture the nature of location-based social network. Hence, we propose a social topic model to effectively exploit a location-based social network. Finally, we address the problem of determining the optimal location for a new store by considering it as a recommendation problem, i.e., recommending locations to a new store. Latent factor models are proposed and proved to perform better than existing state-of-the-art methods.

Book Mining Human Mobility in Location Based Social Networks

Download or read book Mining Human Mobility in Location Based Social Networks written by Huiji Gao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been a rapid growth of location-based social networking services, such as Foursquare and Facebook Places, which have attracted an increasing number of users and greatly enriched their urban experience. Typical location-based social networking sites allow a user to "check in" at a real-world POI (point of interest, e.g., a hotel, restaurant, theater, etc.), leave tips toward the POI, and share the check-in with their online friends. The check-in action bridges the gap between real world and online social networks, resulting in a new type of social networks, namely location-based social networks (LBSNs). Compared to traditional GPS data, location-based social networks data contains unique properties with abundant heterogeneous information to reveal human mobility, i.e., "when and where a user (who) has been to for what," corresponding to an unprecedented opportunity to better understand human mobility from spatial, temporal, social, and content aspects. The mining and understanding of human mobility can further lead to effective approaches to improve current location-based services from mobile marketing to recommender systems, providing users more convenient life experience than before. This book takes a data mining perspective to offer an overview of studying human mobility in location-based social networks and illuminate a wide range of related computational tasks. It introduces basic concepts, elaborates associated challenges, reviews state-of-the-art algorithms with illustrative examples and real-world LBSN datasets, and discusses effective evaluation methods in mining human mobility. In particular, we illustrate unique characteristics and research opportunities of LBSN data, present representative tasks of mining human mobility on location-based social networks, including capturing user mobility patterns to understand when and where a user commonly goes (location prediction), and exploiting user preferences and location profiles to investigate where and when a user wants to explore (location recommendation), along with studying a user's check-in activity in terms of why a user goes to a certain location.
