Review on trajectory similarity measures

摘要

The availability of devices that can be used to track moving objects has increased dramatically leading to a great growth in movement data from almost every application domain. Therefore, there has been an increasing interest in proposing new methodologies for indexing, classifying, clustering, querying and measuring similarity between moving objects' data. One of the main functions for a wide range of application domains is to measure the similarity between two moving objects' trajectories. In this paper, we present a comparative study between widely used trajectory similarity measures observing the advantages and disadvantages of these measures.
