PSOTSC: A Global-Oriented Trajectory Segmentation and Compression Algorithm Based on Swarm Intelligence

Abstract

Linear approximate segmentation and data compression of moving target spatio-temporal trajectory can reduce data storage pressure and improve the efficiency of target motion pattern mining. High quality segmentation and compression need to accurately select and store as few points as possible that can reflect the characteristics of the original trajectory, while the existing methods still have room for improvement in segmentation accuracy, reduction of compression rate and simplification of algorithm parameter setting. A trajectory segmentation and compression algorithm based on particle swarm optimization is proposed. First, the trajectory segmentation problem is transformed into a global intelligent optimization problem of segmented feature points, which makes the selection of segmented points more accurate; then, a particle update strategy combining neighborhood adjustment and random jump is established to improve the efficiency of segmentation and compression. Through experiments on a real data set and a maneuvering target simulation trajectory set, the results show that compared with the existing typical methods, this method has advantages in segmentation accuracy and compression rate.
