Updating of Road Network Databases: Spatio-Temporal Trajectory Grouping Using Snap-Drift Neural Network

چکیده
Research towards an innovative solution to the problem of automated updating of road network databases is presented. It moves away from existing methods where vendors of road network databases either go through the time consuming and logistically challenging process of driving along roads to register changes or use update methods that rely on remote sensing images. The solution presented here would allow users of road network dependent applications (e.g. in-car navigation system or NavSat) to passively collect characteristics of any “unknown route” (departure from the known roads in the database) on behalf of the provider. These data would be processed either by an onboard neural network or transferred back to the NavSat provider and input to a neural net (ANN) along with similar track data provided by other service users, to decide whether or not to automatically update (add) the “unknown road” to the road database. This would be performed ‘on probation’, allowing subsequent users to see the road on their system and use it if need be. At a later stage, when sufficient information on road geometry and other characteristics has accumulated in order to have confidence in the classification, the probationary flag would be lifted and the new road permanently added to the road network database. To investigate this novel approach, GPS-based trajectory data collected in London are analysed using a Snap-Drift Neural Network (SDNN) and categorised into different road class segments. The performance of the SDNN and the key variables required are presented.

In this article, growable deep modular neural networks for continuous speech recognition are introduced. These networks can be grown to implement the spatio-temporal information of the frame sequences at their input layer as well as their labels at the output layer at the same time. The trained neural network with such double spatio-temporal association structure can learn the phonetic sequence...

Automatic road map updating has been one of the difficult and important research topics in the community of geomatics. An operational road map updating system should include three key components: the generation of a new version of roads, the automatic road change detection/updating and the spatio-temporal modelling of road data. Special considerations have to be given to the spatio-temporal mod...
