RePiDeM: A Refined POI Demand Modeling based on Multi-Source Data*

摘要

Point-of-Interest (POI) demand modeling in urban regions is critical for building smart cities with various applications, e.g., business location selection and urban planning. However, existing work does not fully utilize human mobility data and ignores the interactive-aware information. In this work, we design a refined POI demand modeling framework, named RePiDeM, to identify region POI demands based on multi-source data, including cellular data, POI data, satellite image, geographic data, etc. Specifically, we introduce a Cellular Data (CD) based visit inference algorithm to estimate the POI visit probability based on human mobility and POI data. Further, to address the data sparsity issue, we design a multi-source attention neural collaborative filtering (MANCF) model to output region POI demands considering various aspect attention. We conduct extensive experiments on real-world data collected in the Chinese city Shenyang, which show that RePiDeM is effective for modeling region POI demands.
