LLM agents and spatial KGs evaluate neighborhood livability

Researchers have developed a novel framework that integrates spatial knowledge graphs (KGs) with large language models (LLMs) to evaluate neighborhood livability. This system generates and refines household schedules by using a spatial KG to retrieve contextual information and LLMs to create structured schedules. The framework then uses GIS-based network analysis to derive travel paths and times, enabling synthetic interviews with simulated residents to assess daily convenience and accessibility burdens. A prototype demonstration in Shenzhen highlighted that nominal facility availability does not guarantee convenient access for residents with mobility limitations or care responsibilities. AI

IMPACT This framework offers a novel approach to understanding resident experience in urban planning by simulating daily life and accessibility.

    Spatial-Knowledge-Graph-Grounded LLM Agents for Neighborhood Livability Evaluation

    Neighborhood livability is commonly assessed with static built-environment indicators, such as facility proximity, street connectivity, and access to public space. These measures describe available opportunities but do not directly represent how residents with different mobility …
