TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - Human urban mobility, personal or global? JO - Transportation letters A1 - Abbasi, Alireza A1 - Rashidi, Taha Hossein SP - 77 EP - 82 VL - 13 IS - 2 N2 - Unlike the past studies targeting overall mobility patterns, we examined a wide range of probability density functions among which Weibull found to better explain the human mobility rather than the widely tested power-law distribution. We further examined a variety of factors affecting human mobility such as people's trip attributes and socio-demographics traits. Moreover, the models show that social media active people travel mainly short distances; while people traveling to and from areas with higher economic and social advantages are more likely to explore a wider area within a city.
