Predicting human mobility is essential for urban planning and personalized services. The problem addressed in this study is analyzing user behavior patterns and predicting their next destination. Due to the complexity and diversity of human mobility, it's necessary to study user behavior patterns from various angles and leverage diverse context information to construct prediction models. Unfortunately, most previous research often neglects personalized preferences and falls short in offering a comprehensive understanding of user behavior patterns. Furthermore, some studies have not effectively mined and utilized contextual information. To address these shortcomings, this paper introduces a novel Personalized Behavior Modeling Network (PBMN). Compared to existing methods, PBMN provides a more comprehensive modeling of user behavior and utilizes context information more extensively, enabling more accurate prediction. It models user behavior through two parallel channels, taking into account both sequential patterns and personalized preferences, while fully utilizing different contextual information. Ultimately, it generates prediction results by personalized integration of different behavior features. Specifically, PBMN employs a pair of attention-based encoders and decoders to model the overall behavior features. Additionally, it utilizes three parallel recurrent neural networks to model recent behavior features at different levels of context information. The performance of PBMN was evaluated using two real-world datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that PBMN outperforms five mainstream prediction methods concerning three commonly used evaluation metrics, emphasizing the effectiveness of PBMN [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
