CityBehavEx: A Scalable and Empirically Validated LLM-Assisted Urban Simulation Platform
Recent LLM-based multi-agent urban simulators can generate semantically rich city routines, but they remain costly to scale and are often weakly validated against empirical mobility patterns. We present CityBehavEx, an interactive LLM-assisted urban simulation platform that scales to city-size populations, exposes agent behavior for inspection, supports empirical validation, and generates mobility patterns that better match real-world spatial, temporal, and semantic distributions. Instead of invoking large language models for every agent action, CityBehavEx combines established human mobility models with fine-tuned cross-encoders that estimate semantic alignment between agent profiles, sc...
