Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow-Sampling Trajectory Reconstruction using Criteria-Based Routing over a GraphEdison Ospina, Francisco Moreno, Jaime GuzmánLocation-based services mainly provide geo-location data. However, a moving object’s detailed trajectory route is lost when there is low-sampling of these location data. Previous works have been developed in order to find the possible trajectories by using the location history logged by users. These methods can be considered as reconstruction or imputation processes. In this study, we reconstruct trajectories using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Feb 2016 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
