MobilityDL: A Review of Deep Learning From Trajectory Data

no code implementations1 Feb 2024 Anita Graser, Anahid Jalali, Jasmin Lampert, Axel Weißenfeld, Krzysztof Janowicz

Trajectory data combines the complexities of time series, spatial data, and (sometimes irrational) movement behavior.

Where you go is who you are -- A study on machine learning based semantic privacy attacks

1 code implementation26 Oct 2023 Nina Wiedemann, Ourania Kounadi, Martin Raubal, Krzysztof Janowicz

Concerns about data privacy are omnipresent, given the increasing usage of digital applications and their underlying business model that includes selling user data.

Building Privacy-Preserving and Secure Geospatial Artificial Intelligence Foundation Models

no code implementations29 Sep 2023 Jinmeng Rao, Song Gao, Gengchen Mai, Krzysztof Janowicz

Through this vision paper, we hope to draw the attention of researchers and policymakers in geospatial domains to these privacy and security risks inherent in GeoAI foundation models and advocate for the development of privacy-preserving and secure GeoAI foundation models.

Sphere2Vec: A General-Purpose Location Representation Learning over a Spherical Surface for Large-Scale Geospatial Predictions

no code implementations30 Jun 2023 Gengchen Mai, Yao Xuan, Wenyun Zuo, Yutong He, Jiaming Song, Stefano Ermon, Krzysztof Janowicz, Ni Lao

So when applied to large-scale real-world GPS coordinate datasets, which require distance metric learning on the spherical surface, both types of models can fail due to the map projection distortion problem (2D) and the spherical-to-Euclidean distance approximation error (3D).

This chapter presents some of the fundamental assumptions and principles that could form the philosophical foundation of GeoAI and spatial data science.

Towards General-Purpose Representation Learning of Polygonal Geometries

1 code implementation29 Sep 2022 Gengchen Mai, Chiyu Jiang, Weiwei Sun, Rui Zhu, Yao Xuan, Ling Cai, Krzysztof Janowicz, Stefano Ermon, Ni Lao

For the spatial domain approach, we propose ResNet1D, a 1D CNN-based polygon encoder, which uses circular padding to achieve loop origin invariance on simple polygons.

Sphere2Vec: Multi-Scale Representation Learning over a Spherical Surface for Geospatial Predictions

no code implementations25 Jan 2022 Gengchen Mai, Yao Xuan, Wenyun Zuo, Krzysztof Janowicz, Ni Lao

However, a map projection distortion problem rises when applying location encoding models to large-scale real-world GPS coordinate datasets (e. g., species images taken all over the world) - all current location encoding models are designed for encoding points in a 2D (Euclidean) space but not on a spherical surface, e. g., earth surface.

A Review of Location Encoding for GeoAI: Methods and Applications

no code implementations7 Nov 2021 Gengchen Mai, Krzysztof Janowicz, Yingjie Hu, Song Gao, Bo Yan, Rui Zhu, Ling Cai, Ni Lao

A common need for artificial intelligence models in the broader geoscience is to represent and encode various types of spatial data, such as points (e. g., points of interest), polylines (e. g., trajectories), polygons (e. g., administrative regions), graphs (e. g., transportation networks), or rasters (e. g., remote sensing images), in a hidden embedding space so that they can be readily incorporated into deep learning models.

Sphere2Vec: Self-Supervised Location Representation Learning on Spherical Surfaces

no code implementations29 Sep 2021 Gengchen Mai, Yao Xuan, Wenyun Zuo, Yutong He, Stefano Ermon, Jiaming Song, Krzysztof Janowicz, Ni Lao

Location encoding is valuable for a multitude of tasks where both the absolute positions and local contexts (image, text, and other types of metadata) of spatial objects are needed for accurate predictions.

Multi-Scale Representation Learning for Spatial Feature Distributions using Grid Cells

2 code implementations ICLR 2020 Gengchen Mai, Krzysztof Janowicz, Bo Yan, Rui Zhu, Ling Cai, Ni Lao

The key idea is to use neural networks to convert words in texts to vector space representations based on word positions in a sentence and their contexts, which are suitable for end-to-end training of downstream tasks.

An empirical study on the names of points of interest and their changes with geographic distance

1 code implementation21 Jun 2018 Yingjie Hu, Krzysztof Janowicz

While Points Of Interest (POIs), such as restaurants, hotels, and barber shops, are part of urban areas irrespective of their specific locations, the names of these POIs often reveal valuable information related to local culture, landmarks, influential families, figures, events, and so on.
