The Flexible Socio Spatial Group Queries
Summary: Introduces Top-k Flexible Socio-Spatial Group Query for socially connected groups of varying sizes across multiple POIs. Combines social closeness, spatial distance, and group size, with exact-bound and heuristic approximation algorithms for the NP-hard search. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
