Taking into account the availability of the historical GPS trajectories of drivers, given a new GPS trajectory, Driver mobility fingerprint (DMF) identification aims at (i) determining whether a generated trajectory belongs to a potential driver, and (ii) detecting if a trajectory is likely anomalous based on a driver's historical data. Prior studies often consider hand-crafted feature engineering techniques to extract DMFs while contextual factors like weather and points-of-interest (POIs) are hardly accounted for, which might not achieve satisfactory identification results. To address above, we propose RM-Drive, a novel framework based on reinforced feature extraction and multi-resolution learning. Specifically, we first employ spatio-temporal inverse reinforcement learning (ST-IRL) to extract DMFs from historical trajectories. Then, we generate trajectory embeddings by fusing the extracted DMFs and the contextual factors using the multi-resolution trajectory embedding network (MTE-Net). Our proposed MTE-Net consists of multi-resolution convolutional neural network (MR-CNN), which enables the model to learn the multi-resolution features of the DMFs. Finally, we leverage the trajectory embeddings for the driver classification and anomaly detection. We have conducted extensive evaluation studies upon RM-Drive with two real-world datasets, and our results demonstrate the performance improvements from the state-of-the-art of driver classification and anomaly detection respectively by 21% and 11% on average based on several evaluation metrics, including accuracy, precision, and recall, etc.
