Researchers have developed TS-Mob, a new framework designed to improve time series foundation models for predicting human mobility. This framework integrates geographic and social signals, computed from open data like population density and Points of Interest, alongside weather data. When applied to the TimesFM model, TS-Mob demonstrated significant performance improvements over existing methods on benchmarks including Bike New York City, Taxi Beijing, and a Spanish origin-destination matrix, showing reduced error rates and increased predictive accuracy.
