The model first embeds the activity content in distributed continuous vector space by taking point-of-interest as an agent and then extracts representative and interpretable mobility patterns from human trajectory sets using a derived topic model. To investigate the performance of the proposed model, several evaluation metrics are developed, including pattern coherence, pattern similarity, and manual scoring. A real-world case study is conducted, and its experimental results show that the proposed model improves interpretability and helps to understand mobility patterns.

Link prediction based on Graph Neural Network (GNN) obtains node representation and graph structure through GNN, which has attracted a growing amount of attention recently. However, the existing GNN-based link prediction approaches possess some shortcomings. On the one hand, because a graph contains different types of nodes, it leads to a great challenge for aggregating information and learning node representation from its neighbor nodes. On the other hand, the attention mechanism has been an effect instrument for enhancing the link prediction performance. However, the traditional attention mechanism is always monotonic for query nodes, which limits its influence on link prediction. To address these two problems, a Dual-Path Graph Neural Network (DPGNN) for link prediction is proposed in this study. First, we propose a novel Local Random Features Augmentation for Graph Convolution Network as a baseline of one path. Meanwhile, Graph Attention Network version 2 based on dynamic attention mechanism is adopted as a baseline of the other path. And then, we capture more meaningful node representation and more accurate link features by concatenating the information of these two paths.

Yet, only a limited number of studies have explored the complex relationship between oil price shocks and the dynamics of the liner shipping industry, with specific focus on uncertainty linkages and potential diversification strategies. This study aims to investigate the co-movements and asymmetric associations between oil prices (specifically, West Texas Intermediate and Brent) and the stock returns of three prominent shipping companies from Germany, South Korea, and Taiwan.

In addition, the research underscores the statistical significance of exchange rates and interest rates in influencing these returns, with their effects varying across different time horizons.
