Abstract

It is generally believed that human personality affects human mobility patterns. Human personality factors, especially the Big Five factors, allow for the future location of a person to be probabilistically predicted in combination with personal mobility model. For this purpose, we collected the Big Five factors and positioning data for five volunteer participants. Human positioning data can be modeled under an individual human mobility model. With these personality factors and the human mobility model, a person’s near future location can actually be predicted using a back propagation network.
