Synergistic Fusion of Topological Structure and Temporal Semantics of Mobility for Urban Region Embedding

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.08268v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Urban region embeddings have shown promising results in diverse urban sensing tasks such as crime, income, and service-call prediction. Recent methods improve representation quality by integrating mobility data with auxiliary modalities, using cross-view attention or contrastive objectives to align heterogeneous features into a unified region representation. However, leveraging the temporal dynamics of human mobility remains under-explored. Regional inflow and outflow fluctuate throughout the day, and inter-region connections emerge, persist, and dissolve over time. Moreover, prevailing fusion strategies combine views additively and miss the joint signal that emerges only when views co-occur. To address these gaps, we propose Mobility Strea
