Researchers have developed a new inertial tracking framework for large-scale shared bikes, particularly in environments where Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are unreliable, such as urban canyons. This system integrates bicycle mechanical constraints with a mixture-of-experts model to improve multi-task learning and enable uncertainty-aware trajectory estimation. By analyzing the relationship between pedaling and acceleration variations, the framework dynamically calibrates the bike's wheel speed. Experiments using data from DiDi's shared bikes showed an accuracy improvement of at least 12% over existing methods, with wheel speed errors below 0.5 m/s at the 95th percentile. AI
