报告摘要:
With the rapid development of mobile computing and sensing technologies, huge amounts of data with location and time information, such as GPS trajectories of vehicles, real-time traffic statistics, and geo-tagged social media posts, have been collected. These data, commonly referred to as Spatio-Temporal Big Data (STBD), have the potential to transform the society but also pose significant research challenges for data mining due to high data-variety and large candidate pattern cardinality. This talk presents example of STBD mining and analytics techniques, including (1) Urban event detection, (2) Taxi driving direction recommendations, and (3) Traffic accident prediction.
 
In the first example, a set of GPS trajectory data mining techniques will be introduced, which aim at quickly localizing urban events such as gathering of crowds, traffic congestion, and social unrests. This task is important to improving traffic efficiency and mitigating public safety risks. In the second example, a data-driven taxi driving direction recommendation technique is introduced. The technique aims to recommend better routes for drivers while they seek passengers to improve their income. Finally, a deep learning method for traffic accident prediction will be presented. Case studies and experiments for each example will be discussed as well.
