Abstract Mobility digital twin, which is a a virtual replica of the mobility in the physical world, is the key building block of modern smart city applications at a metropolitan scale, including traffic regulation, emergency management and epidemic control. To duplicate the mobility in the physical world and show the potential outcome based on either the current state or manipulated conditions, we are facing with three main challenges: 1) how to sense real-time human mobility at a large scale and assimilate different data sources to infer a dynamic city mobility state; 2) how to make an accurate prediction for the mobility replica that adapts with dynamic city mobility state; 3) how to simulate the mobility in response to different conditions. In this talk, we will present our recent studies, practices and perspectives on mobility digital twin in addressing these above challenges, with applications in the real-world scenarios with industrial connections. © 2023 Owner/Author.
