Detecting Overlapping Communities in LBSNs with Enhanced Location Privacy
Proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Women in Computing and Informatics, 2015Location based social network (LBSNs) for instance Facebook places and Twitter provides large amount of data which allows service providers to create several applications like group marketing, friend and location recommendations, trend inquiry etc. Location based social networks does not provide precise communities which enables users to subscribe ...

Investigating City Characteristics Based on Community Profiling in LBSNs
2012 Second International Conference on Cloud and Green Computing, 2012While the detection of social subgroups (i.e., communities) has always been a fundamental task in social network analysis, few efforts has been made to characterize the detected community. Meanwhile, to effectively facilitate applications based on the community structure, it is very important to understand the features of each community.

A Graph-Based Taxonomy of Recommendation Algorithms and Systems in LBSNs
IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, 2016Recently, location-based social networks (LBSNs) gave the opportunity to users to share geo-tagged information along with photos, videos, and SMSs. Recommender systems can exploit this geographic information to provide much more accurate and reliable recommendations to users.

Detecting overlapping communities in LBSNs by fuzzy subtractive clustering
Social Network Analysis and Mining, 2018With the increasing popularity of location-based social networks (LBSNs), community detection has emerged as an important and practical issue. One of the main shortcomings of the previous methods is that cluster’s centers have been selected randomly in clustering the communities; therefore, different results are obtained in each execution.

On the Impact of Neighborhood Selection Strategies for Recommender Systems in LBSNs
2017Location-based social networks (LBSNs) have emerged as a new concept in online social media, due to the widespread adoption of mobile devices and location-based services. LBSNs leverage technologies such as GPS, Web 2.0 and smartphones to allow users to share their locations (check-ins), search for places of interest or POIs (Point of Interest), look ...

A Friend Recommendation Algorithm Based on Multiple Factors in LBSNs
2015 12th Web Information System and Application Conference (WISA), 2015In location-based social networks, the current friend recommendation algorithms just take a relatively single factor into account without comprehensive evaluations. To solve this problem, we design a framework - Multiple Heterogeneous Social Network (MHSN) according to users' profiles, check-in records and interests. Based on this framework, we propose

Feature tendency based location prediction in LBSNs
2016 18th International Conference on Advanced Communication Technology (ICACT), 2016The development of location-based social networks (LBSNs) has brought in massive users' mobility data, providing an unprecedented opportunity to study human mobile behavior. However, the existing location prediction methods suffer from incompleteness of mobility data and disability of selecting the effective feature.

LocRec: Rule-Based Successive Location Recommendation in LBSN
2018 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC), 2018Successive location recommendation has recently emerged as an important service in Location-Based Social Networks (LBSNs). It aims at recommending the next location(s) to visit to a user given its current and previous locations. Although several recommenders have been proposed, only few works have considered the sequential correlations among locations ...

A Personalized Geographic-Based Diffusion Model for Location Recommendations in LBSN
2014 9th Latin American Web Congress, 2014Location Based Social Networks (LBSN) have emerged with the purpose of allowing users to share their visited locations with their friends. Foursquare, for instance, is a popular LBSN where users endorse and share tips about visited locations. In order to improve the experience of LBSN users, simple recommender services, typically based on geographical ...
