Trajectory Clustering in an Intersection by GDTW

Journal of Advanced Transportation, 2022
GPS trajectory data in intersections are series data with different lengths. Dynamic time wrapping (DTW) is good to measure the similarity between series with different lengths, however, traditional DTW could not deal with the inclusive relationship well
