SF-LIFE: A Large-Scale Simulated Movement Dataset for the San Francisco Bay Area
Chanuka Algama, Taylor Anderson, Henrique Ferraz de Arruda +14
We introduce SF-LIFE, a large-scale simulated movement dataset designed to accelerate research in transportation, mobility, and machine learning. The dataset contains 3,024,000,000…
Towards Universal Urban Patterns-of-Life Simulation
Sandro M. Reia, Henrique F. de Arruda, Shiyang Ruan +3
Understanding urban mobility requires models that capture how people interact with and navigate the built environment. We present a scalable, generalizable agent-based framework in…
Non-equilibrium phase transition and cultural drift in the continuous-trait Axelrod model
Paulo R. A. Campos, Sandro M. Reia, José F. Fontanari
The standard Axelrod model of cultural dissemination, based on discrete cultural traits, exhibits a non-equilibrium phase transition but is inherently limited by its inability to c…
Function and form of U.S. cities
Sandro M. Reia, Taylor Anderson, Henrique F. Arruda +4
The relationship between urban form and function is a complex challenge that can be examined from multiple perspectives. In this study, we propose a method to characterize the urba…
Cultural heterogeneity constrains diffusion of innovations
Aruane M. Pineda, Sandro M. Reia, Colm Connaughton +2
Rogers' diffusion of innovations theory asserts that cultural similarity among individuals plays a crucial role in the acceptance of an innovation in a community. However, most stu…
Spatial Structure of City Population Growth
Sandro M. Reia, P. Suresh C. Rao, Marc Barthelemy +1
We show here that population growth, resolved at the county level, is spatially heterogeneous both among and within the U.S. metropolitan statistical areas. Our analysis of data fo…
Comfort-driven mobility produces spatial fragmentation in Axelrod's model
Sandro M. Reia, Paulo F. Gomes, José F. Fontanari
Axelrod's model for the dissemination of culture combines two key ingredients of social dynamics: social influence, through which people become more similar when they interact, and…
Mobility helps problem-solving systems to avoid Groupthink
Paulo F. Gomes, Sandro M. Reia, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1
Groupthink occurs when everyone in a group starts thinking alike, as when people put unlimited faith in a leader. Avoiding this phenomenon is a ubiquitous challenge to problem-solv…
Impact of centrality on cooperative processes
Sandro M. Reia, Sebastian Herrmann, José F. Fontanari
The solution of today's complex problems requires the grouping of task forces whose members are usually connected remotely over long physical distances and different time zones. He…
