Abstract

Personalized location prediction is key to many mobile applications and services. In this paper, motivated by both statistical and visualized preliminary analysis on three real datasets, we observe a strong spatiotemporal correlation for user trajectories among the visited area-of-interests (AoIs) and different time periods on both weekly and daily basis, which directly motivates our time-aware location prediction model design called "t-LocPred". It models the spatial correlations among AoIs by coarse-grained convolutional processing of the user trajectories in AoIs of different time periods ("ConvAoI"); and predicts his/her fine-grained next visited PoI using a novel memory-augmented attentive LSTM model ("mem-attLSTM") to capture long-term behavior patterns. Experimental results show that t-LocPred outperforms 8 baselines. We also show the impact of hyperparameters and the benefits ConvAoI can bring to these baselines.
