An approach for user’s trajectory prediction based on the trajectory cluster

  • Published:
Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences

Abstract

The existing user’s trajectory prediction methods considered little about the interrelation among users and would fail if the user historical trajectory data were lack. This paper presents a user’s trajectory prediction model and corresponding algorithms by the historical trajectories of users based on the trajectory cluster. The experimental results on MDC dataset show that the proposed method has great improvement in efficiency, accuracy, and scalability comparing with the traditional methods, and it also be applied to the situation where user’s historical trajectory data are lacked.
