Papers from arXiv.org

Abstract: The well-being of individuals in a crowd is interpreted as a product of the crossover of individuals from heterogeneous communities, which may occur via interactions with other crowds. The index moving-direction entropy corresponding to the diversity of the moving directions of individuals is introduced to represent such an inter-community crossover. Multi-scale moving direction entropies, composed of various geographical mesh sizes to compute the index values, are used to capture the information flow owing to human movements from/to various crowds. The generated map of high values of multiscale moving direction entropy is shown to coincide significantly with the preference of people to live in each region.
