Abstract

Trajectory similarity search has been an attractive and challenging topic which spawns various applications. In this work, we study the problem that finds trajectories close to some query locations with timestamps designated by a user. We firstly define the similarity between the query locations and trajectory on road networks. Then, we propose a method to retrieve similar trajectories based on Network Voronoi Diagram. By taking advantage of Network Voronoi Diagram, the proposed method can accelerate the query processing through some pre-computation. Finally, we verify the efficiency of the proposed method by extensive experiments.
