Fine-tuning LLMs for Tourist Trajectory Prediction using Field Experiment Data

Evaluating mobility interventions at tourist destinations requires predicting visitor behavior under varying conditions. Traditional methods struggle because tourist decisions depend heavily on context like weather and fatigue, yet models cannot generalize to unobserved scenarios. Large Language Models offer a solution by encoding commonsense knowledge about human behavior from pretraining, enabling reasoning about context-dependent decisions, while natural language representation flexibly integrates heterogeneous information. Fine-tuning on local trajectories adapts this general understanding to destination-specific patterns. We validate this approach using 566 trajectories from Wakayama Castle Park, Japan. Our fine-tuned Llama-3.1-8B achieves 49.1% next POI accuracy and maintains strong performance on undersampled scenarios like rainy days, demonstrating effective generalization. This establishes LLMs as high-fidelity behavior models for context-dependent tourist prediction, providing groundwork for counterfactual analysis of mobility interventions.

Distilling Aggregate Mobility Statistics into a Language Model Policy for Post-Event Crowd Simulation

Pedestrian simulators need a behaviour rule for every agent, but privacy usually limits the data for setting one to aggregate statistics, namely zone-level device counts and origin-to-destination (OD) flows, with no individual trajectories. Such aggregates under-determine individual behaviour, because many different sets of decisions reproduce the same counts. We fine-tune a language model crowd agent so that the simulated population matches the observed destination composition, the fraction of the departing crowd heading to each point of interest. We read this target from the OD flow and reweight the model's own destination distribution onto it by iterative proportional fitting. Because fine-tuning inflates the dominant destination class, we fit the low-rank adapter to trajectories resampled to a corrected training composition that reaches the target after this inflation. On mobile network counts from two baseball games the fine-tuned agent runs without inference-time correction, cutting the destination-share error by 25%, while the grid correlation remains similar across policies.

Human-Flow Digital Twin for Predicting the Effects of Mobility Introduction on Visitor Circulation

We propose a framework for predicting the effects of mobility introduction measures using a human-flow digital twin. This digital twin incorporates a multi-agent simulator that can represent how visitors choose destinations depending on factors such as their current location and the attractiveness of spots. We extract data on how visitors selected destinations with respect to measured pre-intervention human-flow data, inter-spot distances, spot attractiveness, and travel volumes, and use these data to train each agent's decision model of this simulator. The trained decision model is a function that takes a visitor's current state and surrounding environmental information as input and outputs which spot the visitor will move toward next. By expressing mobility introduction measures as changes to inter-point distances or to spot attractiveness, the framework can reproduce human flows with mobility introduction in the multi-agent simulator and thereby quantify effects such as changes in visitor counts and circulation. We evaluated the proposed method using human-flow data measured with and without introducing mobility within Wakayama Castle Park in Japan. When reproducing flows with mobility introduction using a multi-layer perceptron decision model, the cosine similarity of the spatial population distribution exceeded 0.7, confirming that the approach can replicate the flow changes caused by the mobility introduction.

Ultrafast decoupling of quasiparticles and spin fluctuations in superconducting cuprates

Understanding how quasiparticles are generated following a rapid quench of superconductivity in high-Tc cuprates is a key unresolved problem in nonequilibrium superconductivity. Here we resolve these processes in optimally doped YBCO [YBa2Cu3Oy(y=6.94, Tc=92 K)] using broadband (0.16 -4.1 eV, ca. 100 fs) and nearly single-cycle (6 fs) transient reflectivity spectroscopy. We show that within a few femtosecond, enhanced electron-electron Umklapp scattering dominates, signaling a transient modulation of long-range Coulomb interactions on the eV scale. This regime is followed by a rapid suppression of the scattering rate of the mid-infrared absorption associated with carriers dressed by spin fluctuations. We attribute this observation to an ultrafast decoupling of quasiparticles from the spin-fluctuation background, occurring on a 90 fs timescale set by the inverse optical gap. These findings reveal the correlated many-body dynamics underlying quasiparticle generation in cuprates and provide further clues for unconventional pairing mechanism.

MobText-SISA: Efficient Machine Unlearning for Mobility Logs with Spatio-Temporal and Natural-Language Data

Modern mobility platforms have stored vast streams of GPS trajectories, temporal metadata, free-form textual notes, and other unstructured data. Privacy statutes such as the GDPR require that any individual's contribution be unlearned on demand, yet retraining deep models from scratch for every request is untenable. We introduce MobText-SISA, a scalable machine-unlearning framework that extends Sharded, Isolated, Sliced, and Aggregated (SISA) training to heterogeneous spatio-temporal data. MobText-SISA first embeds each trip's numerical and linguistic features into a shared latent space, then employs similarity-aware clustering to distribute samples across shards so that future deletions touch only a single constituent model while preserving inter-shard diversity. Each shard is trained incrementally; at inference time, constituent predictions are aggregated to yield the output. Deletion requests trigger retraining solely of the affected shard from its last valid checkpoint, guaranteeing exact unlearning. Experiments on a ten-month real-world mobility log demonstrate that MobText-SISA (i) sustains baseline predictive accuracy, and (ii) consistently outperforms random sharding in both error and convergence speed. These results establish MobText-SISA as a practical foundation for privacy-compliant analytics on multimodal mobility data at urban scale.

Privacy-preserving Pedestrian Tracking using Distributed 3D LiDARs

The growing demand for intelligent environments unleashes an extraordinary cycle of privacy-aware applications that makes individuals' life more comfortable and safe. Examples of these applications include pedestrian tracking systems in large areas. Although the ubiquity of camera-based systems, they are not a preferable solution due to the vulnerability of leaking the privacy of pedestrians. In this paper, we introduce a novel privacy-preserving system for pedestrian tracking in smart environments using multiple distributed LiDARs of non-overlapping views. The system is designed to leverage LiDAR devices to track pedestrians in partially covered areas due to practical constraints, e.g., occlusion or cost. Therefore, the system uses the point cloud captured by different LiDARs to extract discriminative features that are used to train a metric learning model for pedestrian matching purposes. To boost the system's robustness, we leverage a probabilistic approach to model and adapt the dynamic mobility patterns of individuals and thus connect their sub-trajectories. We deployed the system in a large-scale testbed with 70 colorless LiDARs and conducted three different experiments. The evaluation result at the entrance hall confirms the system's ability to accurately track the pedestrians with a 0.98 F-measure even with zero-covered areas. This result highlights the promise of the proposed system as the next generation of privacy-preserving tracking means in smart environments.
