Abstract

This paper investigates the nonlinear relationship between distance and intercity population flows during China's Spring Festival using Tencent Big Data and a Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) model. Three nonlinear relationships are identified: plateau, drop, and rebound. Provincial differences reveal that these relationships depend on relative location and intra-provincial urban systems, with coastal provinces exhibiting more inclusive spatial structures compared to inland cities.
