A Practical Index Structure Supporting Fréchet Proximity Queries among Trajectories [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Spatial Algorithms and Systems, 2021
We present a scalable approach for range and k nearest neighbor queries under computationally expensive metrics, like the continuous Fréchet distance on trajectory data. Based on clustering for metric indexes, we obtain a dynamic tree structure whose size is linear in the number of trajectories, regardless of the ...
