IPGeoAI: Transformer-Based Geolocation with LLM Semantic Fusion

IPGeoAI is a transformer-based deep learning model that transforms IP geolocation from a static lookup into a sequential modeling task. It captures hierarchical dependencies in IP subnet structures and resolves geographic ambiguity by fusing unstructured semantic context extracted from Autonomous System descriptions via a zero‑shot LLM feature extraction pipeline. Extensive offline evaluation on a proprietary dataset of 200,000 cities shows IPGeoAI outperforms a leading vendor, achieving a 6% improvement in city‑level accuracy and 100% traffic coverage, while online production tests demonstrate a statistically significant +0.35% improvement in first‑tier downstream use‑case metrics.

Network-based Spatial Context Retrieval for Open-weight LLMs: A Faithfulness Benchmark for Grounded Geographic Reasoning

The paper introduces a network‑based spatial context retrieval pipeline that uses pedestrian street networks and open data (OpenStreetMap, GHS‑POP) to generate compact spatial briefs for open‑weight large language models. It then builds a faithfulness benchmark that labels each model claim by its source—whether grounded in the brief or drawn from training knowledge—and tests models against planted false premises across multiple cities and model configurations. The study finds that model family and generation influence resistance to false premises more than model size, revealing dimensions of spatial reasoning not captured by traditional correctness metrics.
