LE4Mob is a new location embedding framework that learns inductive, distance‑aware representations from geographic context, enabling it to encode unseen locations and preserve spatial relationships. It builds on contrastive language‑location pre‑training and adds a regularisation objective that encourages the embedding space to reflect geographic distance. Experiments on next‑location prediction and commuter flow generation across multiple datasets show that LE4Mob outperforms strong baselines, especially in inductive settings and when downstream models use direct interactions between location embeddings.
