It is beneficial for the city authorities, such as law enforcement and city management, to have an advance knowledge of such events, as it can help them mitigate the safety risks and handle important challenges such as managing traffic, and so forth. Predicting dispersal events is also beneficial to Taxi drivers and\/or ride-sharing services, as it will help them respond to an unexpected demand and gain competitive advantage. Large urban datasets such as detailed trip records and\n            <jats:bold>point of interest<\/jats:bold>\n            (\n            <jats:bold>POI<\/jats:bold>\n            ) data make such predictions achievable. The related literature mainly focused on taxi demand prediction. The pattern of the demand was assumed to be repetitive and proposed methods aimed at capturing those patterns. However, dispersal events are, by definition, violations of those patterns and are, understandably, missed by the methods in the literature. We proposed a different approach in our prior work [32]. We showed that dispersal events can be predicted by learning the complex patterns of arrival and other features that precede them in time. We proposed a survival analysis formulation of this problem and proposed a two-stage framework (DILSA), where a deep learning model predicted the survival function at each point in time in the future. We used that prediction to determine the time of the dispersal event in the future, or its non-occurrence. However, DILSA is subject to a few limitations. First, based on evidence from the data, mobility patterns can vary through time at a given location. DILSA does not distinguish between different mobility patterns through time. Second, mobility patterns are also different for different locations. DILSA does not have the capability to directly distinguish between different locations based on their mobility patterns. In this article, we address these limitations by proposing a method to capture the interaction between POIs and mobility patterns and we create vector representations of locations based on their mobility patterns. We call our new method DILSA+. We conduct extensive case studies and experiments on the NYC Yellow taxi dataset from 2014 to 2016. Results show that DILSA+ can predict events in the next 5 hours with an F1-score of 0.66. It is significantly better than DILSA and the state-of-the-art deep learning approaches for taxi demand prediction.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1145\/3469085","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,12]],"date-time":"2021-08-12T19:15:55Z","timestamp":1628795755000},"page":"1-25","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1145\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["DILSA+: Predicting Urban Dispersal Events through Deep Survival Analysis with Enhanced Urban Features"],"prefix":"10.1145","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Amin Vahedian","family":"Khezerlou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, Whitewater, WI, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xun","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xinyi","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"W.
