Human mobility analysis is emerging as a more and more fundamental task to deeply understand human behavior. In the last decade these kind of studies have become feasible thanks to the massive increase in availability of mobility data. A crucial point, for many mobility applications and analysis, is to extract interesting locations for people. In this paper, we propose a novel methodology to re...

Fundamental laws governing human mobility have many important applications such as forecasting and controlling epidemics or optimizing transportation systems. These mobility patterns, studied in the context of out of home activity during travel or social interactions with observations recorded from cell phone use or diffusion of money, suggest that in extra-personal space humans follow a high d...

Mobility assessment for combat vehicles is often a great challenge for the military due to various subjective attributes. The attributes' characteristics vary significantly depending on the vehicle type and its operating environments such as terrain, weather, and human factors. A clear definition and relationship between multiple attributes including human factors is necessary to assess mobilit...

The mobility behavior of human beings is predictable to a varying degree e.g. depending on the traits of their personality such as the trait extraversion introversion: the mobility of introvert users may be more dominated by routines and habitual movement patterns, resulting in a more predictable mobility behavior on the basis of their own location history while, in contrast, extrovert users ge...

The SUPERHUB project (SUstainable and PERsuasive Human Users moBility in future cities) promotes the creation of a new urban mobility services ecosystem to facilitate the take-up of environmentally sustainable behaviours. It will design and test an open platform able to combine in real time all mobility offers from the relevant stakeholders together with a set of enabling mobility services able...

The study of human mobility patterns is important for both understanding human behaviour, a social phenomenon and to simulate infection transmission. Factors such as geometry representation, granularity, missing data and data noise affect the reliability, validity, and credibility of human mobility data, and any models drawn from this data. This thesis discusses the impact of spatial representa...

The study on human mobility becomes more and more important since the popularity of mobile devices rises up rapidly. And the development of mobile equipment also helps scientists study on human mobility. It’s very meaningful to make a report on this area. This report presents the state of some areas that relate to human mobility. I will introduce some relevant technologies and some other usabil...

Reductions in hunter-gatherer mobility during the Late Pleistocene influenced settlement ecologies, altered human relations with animal communities, and played a pivotal role in domestication. The influence of variability in human mobility on selection dynamics and ecological interactions in human settlements has not been extensively explored, however. This study of mice in modern African villa...
