In this paper, we designed and implemented path search system using GPS information in photo. The system extracts EXIF information included in a photo to get path information and performs path search by applying the shortest path algorithm with the use of GPS information out of information, which was extracted in this way. And then it shows the obtained path information on web by utilizing Yahoo Map API. For this, the system is designed using a method of extracting location information in a photo and path sorting through applying the shortest path algorithm. UI(User Interface) was implemented using Yahoo Map API. Based on that, we implemented path search service using photo file that is included GPS information.

People tend to spend more time in indoor spaces than before such as shopping malls and subway stations. As buildings become larger and more complex, people feel difficulty in finding their ways to destinations. Consequently, a means to provide better paths can aid people in reducing time for finding ways. Routing information in large indoor spaces is especially required in emergency cases as fire, power failure and terror. This study suggests to compute optimal paths using $A^*$ algorithm based on raster GIS data structure. The suggested method can be used either in daily lives for path provision or in emergency cases for evacuation, and is illustrated on a campus building.

본 논문은 미지의 공간 그래프에 대한 실시간 최단 경로 탐색 알고리즘인 $RTA{\ast}$ 알고리즘과 $PHA{\ast}$ 알고리즘을 소개하고, 예제 그래프를 통해 이들의 특성을 설명한다. 또 3차원 온라인 게임 환경인 언리얼 토너먼트(Unreal Tournament) 게임과 Gamebots 시스템을 이용하여 두 알고리즘 간의 탐색 최적성과 효율성을 비교하였다. 이 실험을 통하여 $PHA{\ast}$ 알고리즘은 언제나 최선의 경로를 탐색하지만 이동경로가 많고, 시간이 많이 걸릴 수 있으며, $RTA{\ast}$는 최적의 경로 혹은 차선 경로를 빠른 시간 내에 탐색함을 확인 하였다. 따라서 이러한 특성을 바탕으로 주어진 탐색 환경의 조건에 따라 두 알고리즘을 선택적으로 적용함으로써 보다 높은 효과를 얻을 수 것으로 기대한다.

The paper proposes an algorithm which finds a nonlinear cut path for a printed grayscale touching character image. The conventional algorithms were observed to fail in situations of complicated touching. We analyzed those situations, and based on the analysis results we identified problematic issues of the conventional algorithms. We modified the conventional algorithms in two aspects. First we propose a new penalizing term which is probable to guide correctly the cut path for touching situations difficult to separate. Second the preposed algorithm adopts a strategy of producing both the downward and upward paths and selecting better one. The experimental results on actual touching character images showed that the proposed algorithm was superior th conventional algorithms by 3~4% in terms of success ratio of separation.

본 논문은 AGV를 사용하는 물류자동화 공장에서 운송 시간을 단축하기 위해 최단 다 경로 알고리즘을 제안한다. 최단 다 경로 알고리즘은 A* 알고리즘을 보완한 것으로써 경로 분기점에서 최단 거리 선택을 위한 휴리스틱 함수($\hat{h}$(n))보다 작은 모든 간을 선택하여 저장하고 이를 재 탐색함으로써 다수의 경로를 생성한다. 생성된 경로를 본 논문에서 제안하는 소요시간 산출 방법을 이용하여 예상 소요 시간을 산출함으로써 최단시간에 목적지에 도달 가능한 최적 경로를 선택할 수 있음을 증명한다.

Vehicle navigation systems employ a certain route planning algorithm that provides the shortest path between the starting point and the destination point. The performance of a given route planning algorithm is measured through the degree of optimal route selection and the time cost to complete searching an optimal path. In this paper, various route planning algorithms are evaluated through computer simulation based on a real digital map database. Among those algorithms evaluated in this paper, the Modified Bi-directional A${\ast}$ algorithm is found to be the best algorithm for use in vehicle navigation systems.

In transportation networks, searching speed and result accuracy are becoming more critical on searching minimum path algorithm. Current $A^*$ algorithm has a big advantage of high searching speed. However, it has disadvantage of complicated searching network and low accuracy rate of finding the minimum path algorithm. Therefore, this study developed $A^*$ algorithm's heuristic function and focused on improving it's disadvantages. Newly developed function in this study contains the area concept, not the line concept. During the progress, this study adopts the idea of a heavier node that remains lighter to the target node is better that the lighter node that becomes heavier when it is connected to the other. Lastly, newly developed algorithm has the feedback function, which allows the larger accuracy value of heuristic than before. This developed algorithm tested on real network, and proved that developed algorithm is useful.

This paper presents the algorithm using fuzzy inference that preestimates each link speed changed by different kinds of road situations. The elements we are considered are time zone, rainfall probability information and lane control information. This paper is consists of three parts. First of all we set up the fuzzy variables, and preestimate link speed changed by various road situations. For this process, we build the membership functions for each fuzzy variable and establish the fuzzy inference relations to find how fuzzy variables influence on link speed. Second, using backtracking method, we search the shortest route influenced by link speed changed by fuzzy inference. Third, we apply this algorithm to hypothetical network and find the shortest path. As a result, it is shown that this algorithm choose appropriate roundabout path according to the changing road situations.

본 논문에서 구현한 시스템은 비젼(vision)시스템을 이용하여 자율 이동로봇의 경로를 탐색하고 추출된 정보로부터 자율 이동로봇의 위치제어 성능을 제시하고자 한다. 일반적인 로봇시스템은 자신이 이동해야 할 목표 지점을 자율적으로 생성할 수 없으므로 기타 다른 시스템의 정보를 이용하여 미로를 탐색하거나 장애물을 인식하고 식별하여 자신의 제어전략을 수립한다. 그리고, 본 연구에서 제시한 시스템은 자율이동로봇의 행동 환경을 호스트 PC인 비젼시스템이 로봇의 현재 위치, 로봇이 이동해야 할 목표위치, 장애물의 위치와 형태 둥둥을 분석한다. 분석된 결과값을 RF-Module을 이용해서 로봇에 전송하면 로봇은 그 데이터를 받아서 동작하게 되며 로봇이 오동작 또는 장애물로 인해 정확한 목적지까지 도달하지 못할때 호스트 PC는 새로운 최단경로를 만들거나 장애물을 회피 할 전략을 로봇에게 보내준다. 본 연구에 적용한 알고리즘은 A* 알고리즘을 사용하였으며, 본 알고리즘은 매우 단순하면서도 실시간 처리에 적용가능하며, 자율 이동로봇의 충돌회피, 최단 경로 생성에 대한 성능을 실험을 통하여 제시한다.

Existing shortest-path algorithms mainly consider a single attribute. But traveler actually chooses a route considering not single attribute but various attributes which are synthesized travel time, route length, personal preference, etc. Therefore, to search the optimal path, these attributes are considered synthetically. In this study route searching algorithm which selects the maximum utility route using discrete choice model has developed in order to consider various attributes. Six elements which affect route choice are chosen for the route choice model and parameters of the models are estimated using survey data. A multinomial logit models are developed to design the function of route choice model. As a result, the model which has route length, delay time, the number of turning as parameter is selected based on the significance test. We use existing shortest path algorithm, which can reflect urban transportation network such as u-turn or p-turn, and apply it to the real network.
