| Popis: | Human mobility prediction is a fundamental task essential for various applications, including urban planning, location-based services and intelligent transportation systems. Existing methods often ignore activity information crucial for reasoning human preferences and routines, or adopt a simplified representation of the dependencies between time, activities and locations. To address these issues, we present Hierarchical Graph Attention Recurrent Network (HGARN) for human mobility prediction. Specifically, we construct a hierarchical graph based on all users' history mobility records and employ a Hierarchical Graph Attention Module to capture complex time-activity-location dependencies. This way, HGARN can learn representations with rich human travel semantics to model user preferences at the global level. We also propose a model-agnostic history-enhanced confidence (MAHEC) label to focus our model on each user's individual-level preferences. Finally, we introduce a Temporal Module, which employs recurrent structures to jointly predict users' next activities (as an auxiliary task) and their associated locations. By leveraging the predicted future user activity features through a hierarchical and residual design, the accuracy of the location predictions can be further enhanced. For model evaluation, we test the performances of our HGARN against existing SOTAs in both the recurring and explorative settings. The recurring setting focuses on assessing models' capabilities to capture users' individual-level preferences, while the results in the explorative setting tend to reflect the power of different models to learn users' global-level preferences. Overall, our model outperforms other baselines significantly in all settings based on two real-world human mobility data benchmarks.
