we propose a method of predicting human's activity, including the location and purpose, by using Twitter posts with location information. The proposed method predicts target users' activities based on the location transition and tweet of users in the database. Concretely, we adopt both the similarity of current location and interest, and the similarity of long term interest and location to select the base user and tweet. And then, we can utilize these two baselines to predict target users' activities. We evaluate the proposed method by the following two points: one is the error range of the distance, and the other is the similarity of tweet contents. We used three months of Twitter data with location information (almost 40 mil.) as the database. The experiment results demonstrate that the prediction accuracy of the proposed method is superior to the two control groups which only consider one of the similarity of current location and interest and the similarity of long term interest and location.we propose a method of predicting human's activity, including the location and purpose, by using Twitter posts with location information.
