An efficient approach to understanding social evolution of location-focused online communities in location-based services

초록

The booming and novel emerging promising technologies on ubiquitous computing, GPS positioning, are facilitating the development of location-based services (LBSs). Particularly, understanding the dynamic topological structures of mobile users in LBSs who visit the same physical locations has many meaningful applications including friend recommendation, location-sensitive items recommendation, and privacy management. In this paper, we proposed a novel m-triadic concept-based approach for uncovering the social evolution of location-focused online communities in LBSs. Firstly, an m-triadic concept-based location-focused online communities detection approach is presented. Further, the social evolution of the community is characterized by the time series triadic concepts in which the objectives contain the targeted users.
