Hierarchically linked infinite hidden Markov model based trajectory analysis and semantic region retrieval in a trajectory dataset

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel model for trajectories and semantic regions (sest-hiHMM) is proposed.

• A sticky version of sest-hiHMMs is proposed for reducing redundant semantic regions.

• An extended definition of semantic regions covers actual regions, not sets of points.

• Our models concern the temporal dependency of observations in a trajectory.

• Our models retrieve reasonable semantic regions from a real trajectory dataset.
