The paper proposes a novel approach to learning representations for urban regions, which is crucial for various downstream tasks. The authors argue that previous methods neglect the spatial structures and functional layouts between entities, limiting their ability to capture transferable knowledge across regions. To address this challenge, they introduce a Graph-based Urban Region Pre-training and Prompting framework (GURPP), which consists of two main components: an urban region graph and a subgraph-centric pre-training model. The authors also design two graph-based prompting methods to incorporate explicit/hidden task knowledge, enhancing the adaptability of these embeddings to different tasks. Experimental results on various urban region prediction tasks and different cities demonstrate the superior performance of their GURPP framework.

The paper is about a new way to learn about urban areas that can be used for many tasks. The problem is that previous methods didn’t consider how things are connected in an urban area, which made it hard to use what was learned in one place for another. To solve this, the authors created a framework called GURPP, which includes building a map of an urban area and training a model on that map. They also developed two new ways to help the model understand what task it’s supposed to do. The results show that their approach works better than others.
