Trajectory Pattern Mining [chapter]

2011 Computing with Spatial Trajectories  
In step with the rapidly growing volumes of available moving-object trajectory data, there is also an increasing need for techniques that enable the analysis of trajectories. Such functionality may benefit a range of application area and services, including transportation, the sciences, sports, and prediction-based and social services, to name but a few. The chapter first provides an overview trajectory patterns and a categorization of trajectory patterns from the literature. Next, it examines

Relative patterns enable the specification of patterns to be identified in the data that refer to the relationships of motion attributes among moving objects. The chapter then studies disc-based and density-based patterns, which address some of the limitations of relative motion patterns. The chapter also reviews indexing structures and algorithms for trajectory pattern mining.
