Multivariate Spatiotemporal Hawkes Processes and Network Reconstruction
There is often latent network structure in spatial and temporal data and the
tools of network analysis can yield fascinating insights into such data. In
this paper, we develop a nonparametric method for network reconstruction from
spatiotemporal data sets using multivariate Hawkes processes. In contrast to
prior work on network reconstruction with point-process models, which has often
focused on exclusively temporal information, our approach uses both temporal
and spatial information and does not assume a specific parametric form of
network dynamics. This leads to an effective way of recovering an underlying
network. We illustrate our approach using both synthetic networks and networks
constructed from real-world data sets (a location-based social media network, a
narrative of crime events, and violent gang crimes). Our results demonstrate
that, in comparison to using only temporal data, our spatiotemporal approach
yields improved network reconstruction, providing a basis for meaningful
subsequent analysis --- such as community structure and motif analysis --- of
the reconstructed networks
The Music Streaming Sessions Dataset
At the core of many important machine learning problems faced by online
streaming services is a need to model how users interact with the content.
These problems can often be reduced to a combination of 1) sequentially
recommending items to the user, and 2) exploiting the user's interactions with
the items as feedback for the machine learning model. Unfortunately, there are
no public datasets currently available that enable researchers to explore this
topic. In order to spur that research, we release the Music Streaming Sessions
Dataset (MSSD), which consists of approximately 150 million listening sessions
and associated user actions. Furthermore, we provide audio features and
metadata for the approximately 3.7 million unique tracks referred to in the
logs. This is the largest collection of such track metadata currently available
to the public. This dataset enables research on important problems including
how to model user listening and interaction behaviour in streaming, as well as
Music Information Retrieval (MIR), and session-based sequential
recommendations.Comment: 3 pages, introducing a new large scale datase
