Trajectory data are ubiquitous in the real world. Recent progress on satellite, sensor, RFID, video, and wireless technologies has made it possible to systematically track object movements and collect huge amounts of trajectory data. Accordingly, there is an ever-increasing interest in performing data analysis over trajectory data. In this paper, we develop a data mining tool for massive trajectory data. This mining tool supports three operations, clustering, classification, and outlier detection, which are the most widely used ones. Trajectory clustering discovers common movement patterns, trajectory classification predicts the class labels of moving objects based on their trajectories, and trajectory outlier detection finds trajectories that are grossly different from or inconsistent with the remaining set of trajectories. The primary advantage of the mining tool is to take advantage of the information of partial trajectories in the process of data mining. The effectiveness of the mining tool is shown using various real trajectory data sets. We believe that we have provided practical software for trajectory data mining which can be used in many real applications.

최근 모바일 기기의 발전으로 사용자의 위치를 수집하고 분석하는 방법들이 연구되고 있다. 이러한 방법들 중 하나인 궤적 데이터 마이닝은 사용자의 궤적을 바탕으로 의미 있는 정보를 추출하기 위해 사용된다. 궤적 데이터 마이닝을 수행하기 위해서는 사용자의 GPS로그를 분석하여 Stay Point를 추출하는 과정이 선행되어야 한다. 기존의 Stay Point 추출 방법은 실내와 실외의 Stay Point를 구분하지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 Stay Point 알고리즘을 보완하기 위해 GPS 데이터 분포를 고려하여 실내에서 머무른 지점만을 추출하는 Stay Point 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Recent researches have been conducted for a user of the position acquisition and analysis since the mobile devices was developed. Trajectory data mining of location analysis method for a user is used to extract the meaningful information based on the user's trajectory. It should be preceded by a process of extracting Stay Point. In order to carry out trajectory data mining by analyzing the user of the GPS Trajectory. The conventional Stay Point extraction algorithm is low confidence because the user to arbitrarily set the threshold values. It does not distinguish between staying indoors and outdoors. Thus, the ambiguity of the position is increased. In this paper we proposed extraction method of Stay Point using a statistical analysis. We proposed algorithm improves position accuracy by extracting the points that are staying indoors and outdoors using Gaussian distribution. And we also improve reliability of the algorithm since that does not use arbitrarily set threshold.

To increase the efficiency of mining process and derive accurate spatio-temporal patterns, continuous values of attributes should be discretized prior to mining process. In this paper, we propose a discretization method which improves the mining efficiency by reducing the data size without losing the correlations in the data. The proposed method first s original trajectories into approximations using line simplification and then groups them into similar clusters. Our experiments show that the proposed approach improves the mining efficiency as well as extracts more intuitive patterns compared to existing discretization methods.

Advances in mobile techknowledges and supporting techniques require an effective representation and analysis of moving objects. Similarity search of moving object trajectories is an active research area in data mining. In this paper, we propose a trajectory search algorithm for spatio-temporal similarity of moving objects on road network. For this, we define spatio-temporal distance between two trajectories of moving objects on road networks, and propose a new method to measure spatio-temporal similarity based on the real road network distance. In addition, we propose a similar trajectory search algorithm that retrieves spatio-temporal similar trajectories in the road network. The algorithm uses a signature file in order to retrieve candidate trajectories efficiently. Finally, we provide performance analysis to show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

There have already been studies analyzing the trajectories of objects from data streams of moving objects. Among those studies, there are also studies to discover groups of objects that move together, called companion groups. Most studies to discover companion groups use existing clustering techniques to find groups of objects close to each other. However, these clustering-based methods are often difficult to find the right companion groups because the number of clusters is unpredictable in advance or the shape or size of clusters is hard to control. In this study, we propose a new method that discovers companion groups based on the distance specified by the user. The proposed method does not apply the existing clustering techniques but periodically determines the groups of objects close to each other, by using a technique that efficiently finds the groups of objects that exist within the user-specified distance. Furthermore, unlike the existing methods that return only companion groups and their trajectories, the proposed method also returns their appearance and disappearance time. Through various experiments, we show that the proposed method can detect companion groups correctly and very efficiently.

Recently terrorism targets unspecified masses and causes massive destruction, which is so-called Super Terrorism. Many countries have tried hard to protect their citizens with various preparation and safety net. With inexpensive and advanced technologies of sensors, the surveillance systems have been paid attention, but few studies associated with the classification of the pedestrians' trajectories and the difference among themselves have attempted. Therefore, we collected individual trajectories at Samseoung Station using an analytical solution (system) of pedestrian trajectory by LiDAR sensor. Based on the collected trajectory data, a comprehensive framework of classifying the types of pedestrians' trajectories has been developed with data normalization and "trajectory association rule-based algorithm." As a result, trajectories with low similarity within the very same cluster is possibly detected.

This paper proposes an on-line mining algorithm of moving trajectory patterns in RFID data streams considering changing characteristics over time and constraints of single-pass data scan. Since RFID, sensor, and mobile network technology have been rapidly developed, many researchers have been recently focused on the study of real-time data gathering from real-world and mining the useful patterns from them. Previous researches for sequential patterns or moving trajectory patterns based on stream data have an extremely time-consum ing problem because of multi-pass database scan and tree traversal, and they also did not consider the time-changing characteristics of stream data. The proposed method preserves the sequential strength of 2-lengths frequent patterns in binary relationship table using the time-evolving graph to exactly reflect changes of RFID data stream from time to time. In addition, in order to solve the problem of the repetitive data scans, the proposed algorithm infers candidate k-lengths moving trajectory patterns beforehand at a time point t, and then extracts the patterns after screening the candidate patterns by only one-pass at a time point t+1. Through the experiment, the proposed method shows the superior performance in respect of time and space complexity than the Apriori-like method according as the reduction ratio of candidate sets is about 7 percent.

In this paper, we present a MapReduce-based mobility pattern mining system which can predict efficiently the next place of mobile users. It learns the mobility pattern model of each user, represented by Hidden Markov Models(HMM), from a large-scale trajectory dataset, and then predicts the next place for the user to visit by applying the learned models to the current trajectory. Our system consists of two parts: the back-end part, in which the mobility pattern models are learned for individual users, and the front-end part, where the next place for a certain user to visit is predicted based on the mobility pattern models. While the back-end part comprises of three distinct MapReduce modules for POI extraction, trajectory transformation, and mobility pattern model learning, the front-end part has two different modules for candidate route generation and next place prediction. Map and reduce functions of each module in our system were designed to utilize the underlying Hadoop infrastructure enough to maximize the parallel processing. We performed experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed system by using a large-scale open benchmark dataset, GeoLife, and then could make sure of high performance of our system as results of the experiments.
