TraveL: Transformer-based Multi-view Path Distributional Representation Learning

Read the original on arXiv AI →

TraveL is a Transformer-based framework that learns distributional representations of road network paths by incorporating traveler behaviors and regional road segment correlations. It encodes a path and its starting time into a distribution, enabling decoding of possible traveler behaviors. Experiments demonstrate that TraveL surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods on synthetic and real datasets, improving travel time distribution estimation, path similarity prediction, and destination prediction metrics.

DGCPath: Distribution-Aware Generative Contrastive Framework for Self-supervised Path Representation Learning -- Extended Version

DGCPath is a Distribution‑Aware Generative Contrastive framework designed for self‑supervised path representation learning. It combines a diffusion‑based view generator, a variational contrastive mechanism that aligns latent features at the distribution level, and a generative cross‑supervision module for view‑level consistency. Experiments on three real‑world trajectory datasets show that DGCPath surpasses state‑of‑the‑art baselines on two downstream tasks, indicating stronger generalization and representation effectiveness.

MoRA: Mobility as the Backbone for Geospatial Representation Learning at Scale

MoRA is a human‑centric geospatial representation learning framework that uses a large mobility graph as its backbone to fuse spatial tokenization, graph neural networks, and asymmetric contrastive learning. It aligns over 100 million points of interest, massive remote sensing imagery, and structured demographic data with a billion‑edge mobility graph, producing compact 128‑dimensional embeddings that capture socio‑economic context and functional roles of locations. On a benchmark of nine downstream social and economic prediction tasks, MoRA outperforms state‑of‑the‑art models by an average of 12.9% and demonstrates scaling behavior analogous to large language models.
