• Abstract: Urban region profiling plays a crucial role in forecasting and decision-making in the context of dynamic and noisy urban environments. Existing methods often struggle with issues such as noise, data incompleteness, and security vulnerabilities. This paper proposes a novel framework, Enhanced Urban Region Profiling with Adversarial Self-Supervised Learning (EUPAS), to address these challenges. By combining adversarial contrastive learning with both supervised and self-supervised objectives, EUPAS ensures robust performance across various forecasting tasks such as crime prediction, check-in prediction, and land use classification. To enhance model resilience against adversarial attacks and noisy data, we incorporate several key components, including perturbation augmentation, trickster generator, and deviation copy generator. These innovations effectively improve the robustness of the embeddings, making EUPAS capable of handling the complexities and noise inherent in urban data. Experimental results show that EUPAS significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple tasks, achieving improvements in prediction accuracy of up to 10.8%. Notably, our model excels in adversarial attack tests, demonstrating its resilience in real-world, security-sensitive applications. This work makes a substantial contribution to the field of urban analytics by offering a more robust and secure approach to forecasting and profiling urban regions. It addresses key challenges in secure, data-driven modeling, providing a stronger foundation for future urban analytics and decision-making applications.

  We introduce a novel framework to detect instability in smart grids by employing only stable data.
