Abstract

Massive amount of spatio-temporal data that contain location and text content are being generated by location-based social media. These spatio-temporal messages cover a wide range of topics. It is of great significance to discover local trending topics based on users’ location-based and topicbased requirements. We develop a region-based message exploration mechanism that retrieve spatio-temporal message clusters from a stream of spatio-temporal messages based on users’ preferences on message topic and message spatial distribution. Additionally, we propose a region summarization algorithm that finds a subset of representative messages in a cluster to summarize the topics and the spatial attributes of messages in the cluster. We evaluate the efficacy and efficiency of our proposal on two real-world datasets and the results demonstrate that our solution is capable of high efficiency and effectiveness compared with baselines.
