Since the mid-1990s, Time-Location Sampling methods have been widely used in France in quantitative research about the homeless (Marpsat and Firdion, 2000; Brousse, 2002) and drug users (Emmanuelli et al. 2003; Jauffret-Roustide et al. 2006).

Comparative Evaluation of Bandit-Style Heuristic Policies for Moving Target Detection in a Linear Grid Environment [PDF]
Moving-target detection under strict sensing constraints is a recurring subproblem in surveillance, search-and-rescue, and autonomous robotics. We study a canonical one-dimensional finite grid in which a sensor probes one location per time step with ...

Inferring distant-time location in low-sampling-rate trajectories [PDF]
With the growth of location-based services and social services, low- sampling-rate trajectories from check-in data or photos with geo- tag information becomes ubiquitous. In general, most detailed mov- ing information in low-sampling-rate trajectories are lost.

Efficient Sample Location Selection for Query Zone in Geo-Social Networks
While promoting a business or activity in geo-social networks, the geographical distance between its location and users is critical. Therefore, the problem of Distance-Aware Influence Maximization (DAIM) has been investigated recently.
