Transformer-Aided Deep Double Dueling Spatial-Temporal Q-Network for Spatial Crowdsourcing Analysis

With the rapid development ofmobile Internet,spatial crowdsourcing has becomemore andmore popular.Spatial crowdsourcing consists of many different types of applications,such as spatial crowd-sensing services.In terms of spatial crowd-sensing,it collects and analyzes traffic sensing data from clients like vehicles and traffic lights to construct intelligent traffic prediction models.Besides collecting sensing data,spatial crowdsourcing also includes spatial delivery services like DiDi and Uber.Appropriate task assignment and worker selection dominate the service quality for spatial crowdsourcing applications.Previous research conducted task assignments via traditional matching approaches or using simple network models.However,advanced mining methods are lacking to explore the relationship between workers,task publishers,and the spatio-temporal attributes in tasks.Therefore,in this paper,we propose a Deep Double Dueling Spatial-temporal Q Network(D3SQN)to adaptively learn the spatialtemporal relationship between task,task publishers,and workers in a dynamic environment to achieve optimal allocation.Specifically,D3SQNis revised through reinforcement learning by adding a spatial-temporal transformer that can estimate the expected state values and action advantages so as to improve the accuracy of task assignments.Extensive experiments are conducted over real data collected fromDiDi and ELM,and the simulation results verify the effectiveness of our proposed models.

News Recommendation System Based on Topic Embedding and Knowledge Embedding

News recommendation system is designed to deal with massive news and provide personalized recommendations for users.Accurately capturing user preferences and modeling news and users is the key to news recommendation.In this paper,we propose a new framework,news recommendation system based on topic embedding and knowledge embedding(NRTK).NRTK handle news titles that users have clicked on from two perspectives to obtain news and user representation embedding:1)extracting explicit and latent topic features from news and mining users’preferences for them in historical behaviors;2)extracting entities and propagating users’potential preferences in the knowledge graph.Experiments in a real-world dataset validate the effectiveness and efficiency of our approach.
