Cross-city urban flow prediction is critical for democratizing smart application benefits in data-scarce developing cities. However, existing methods face an inherent performance ceiling, constrained by both the inevitably finite samples from the source city and the distributional gap between cities
Dynamic Path Planning (DPP) in urban road networks faces fundamental challenges, as traffic conditions change rapidly over time and often render planned routes ineffective. Reinforcement Learning (RL) provides an effective way to adaptively handle such uncertainties by incorporating traffic dynamics…
Millimeter-wave radar's all-weather capability makes it increasingly vital for autonomous perception. However, the high cost of radar data collection drives the need for data generation to augment radar datasets. Existing works mainly target partial radar representations, e.g., 2D or 3D slices, lead
Secure Aggregation (SA) is a cornerstone of Federated Learning (FL), ensuring that user updates remain hidden from servers. The advanced Flamingo (S\&P'23) has realized multi-round aggregation and improved efficiency. However, it still faces several key challenges: scalability issues with dynamic us…
We present SPASCA - a conversational AI system that promotes psychological and cognitive well-being of persons living with dementia (PLWD). This system features an AI agent that provides social presence and support to PLWD through verbal communications, without physical presence of human caregivers.…
Origin-destination (OD) crowd flow, if more accurately inferred at a fine-grained level, has the potential to enhance the efficacy of various urban applications. While in practice for mining OD crowd flow with effect, the problem of spatially interpolating OD crowd flow occurs since the ineluctable…
Potential crowd flow prediction for new planned transportation sites is a fundamental task for urban planners and administrators. Intuitively, the potential crowd flow of the new coming site can be implied by exploring the nearby sites. However, the transportation modes of nearby sites (e.g. bus sta…
Out-of-town recommendation is designed for those users who leave their home-town areas and visit the areas they have never been to before. It is challenging to recommend Point-of-Interests (POIs) for out-of-town users since the out-of-town check-in behavior is determined by not only the user’s home-…
While Point-of-Interest (POI) recommendation has been a popular topic of study for some time, little progress has been made for understanding why and how people make their decisions for the selection of POIs. To this end, in this paper, we propose a user decision profiling framework, named PROUD, wh…
