Public libraries provide equitable access to information for all citizens, and they play an important role in preserving and promoting culture, formal education and self-education, and enriching leisure time. Accordingly, there has been an increasing amount of research on the use factors and accessibility of public libraries, but research on the accessibility of public libraries in non-Western cities is insufficient compared to the corresponding research on other public facilities. In particular, in high-density cities such as Seoul, the Republic of Korea, it may be desirable in terms of sustainability to focus on the qualitative, rather than the quantitative, expansion of public libraries. In previous studies, the attractive factors on the supply side were analyzed using questionnaire surveys, but in this study, the attractive factors for users were quantified in the form of the library attraction index by means of user-generated contents such as location-based social media, and the accessibility was analyzed based on this. The results showed that many public libraries have high accessibility, with a high library attraction index. Therefore, these findings indicate that the qualitative expansion of public libraries is important for information equality. It is meaningful that this study analyzed the attractive factors on the supply side by analyzing the contents generated by users.

Public bike-sharing is eco-friendly, connects excellently with other transportation modes, and provides a means of mobility that is highly suitable in the current era of climate change. This study proposes a methodology for inferring the bike trip purpose based on bike-share and point-of-interest (POI) data. Because the purpose of a trip involves decision-making, its inference necessitates an understanding of the spatiotemporal complexity of human activities. Thus, the spatiotemporal features affecting bike trips were selected from the bike-share data, and the land uses at the origin and destination of the trips were extracted from the POI data. During POI type embedding, the data were augmented considering the geographical distance between the POIs and the number of bike rentals at each bike station. We further developed a ground truth data construction method that uses temporal mobile and POI data. The inference model was built using machine learning and applied to experiments involving bike stations in Seocho-gu, Seoul, Korea. The experimental results revealed that optimal performance was achieved with the use of decision tree algorithms, as demonstrated by a 78.95% overall accuracy and 66.43% F1-score. The proposed method contributes to a better understanding of the causes of movement within cities.
