Abstract

With the popularity of bike-sharing system in cities, a large volume of bike-sharing data, which contain the spatio-temporal characteristics of riders, are generated. These data enable a number of important location-aware services such as detecting hot-spots and predicting traffic in a city. This paper develops a system for Mining and Analysing Hot-Spots (MAHS) from bike-sharing data which are collected from Beijing within a week. Firstly, according to different time granularity and space distance, MAHS visually figures the spatio-temporal statistical information of bike-sharing data by graph. Secondly, utilizing POI data from Amap API and the density peak clustering algorithm, MAHS discoveries hot-spots on start-locations and end-locations during the morning and evening rush hours, and intuitively illustrates them on map. Thirdly, based on the LDA algorithm, MAHS identifies the city functions of hot-spots and the moving patterns of riders, and concisely demonstrates them on map. MAHS can help users with managing bike-sharing system, understanding the moving patterns of riders, finding the functional regions of cities, and other urban computing.
