• Abstract: Predicting travel time under rare temporal conditions (e.g., public holidays, school vacation period, etc.) constitutes a challenge due to the limitation of historical data. If at all available, historical data often form a heterogeneous time series due to high probability of other changes over long periods of time (e.g., road works, introduced traffic calming initiatives, etc.). This is especially prominent in cities and suburban areas. We present a vector-space model for encoding rare temporal conditions, that allows coherent representation learning across different temporal conditions. We show increased performance for travel time prediction over different baselines when utilizing the vector-space encoding for representing the temporal setting.

  We propose REPLAY, a general RNN architecture learning to capture the time-varying temporal regularities for location prediction. Specifically, REPLAY not only resorts to distances in sparse trajectories to search for the informative hidden past states, but also accommodates the time-varying temporal regularities. Results show that REPLAY consistently and significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 7.7%-10.9% in the location prediction task.

  Long-term urban mobility predictions play a crucial role in the effective management of urban facilities and services. Traditionally, urban mobility data has been structured as videos, treating longitude and latitude as fundamental pixels. In our research, we introduce a fresh perspective on urban mobility prediction. Instead of oversimplifying urban mobility data as traditional video data, we regard it as a complex time series.

• Towards Spatio-Temporal Aware Traffic Time Series Forecasting--Full Version [37.09531298150374]
  Traffic series forecasting is challenging due to complex time series patterns for the same time series patterns may vary across time, where, for example, there exist periods across a day showing stronger temporal correlations. Such-temporal models employ a shared parameter space irrespective of the time locations and the time periods and they assume that the temporal correlations are similar across locations and do not always hold across time which may not always be the case. We propose a framework that aims at turning ICD-temporal aware models to encode sub-temporal models.
