Abstract

If continuous moving objects are managed by conventional database, it is not possible for them to store all position information changed over time in the database. Therefore, a time period of regular rate is determined and position information of moving objects are discretely stored in the system for every time period. However, if continuous moving objects are managed as discrete model, we will have problems which cannot properly answer to the query about uncertain past or future position information. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose the method and algorithm which use the history information stored in the same database, to estimate the past or future location of moving objects. The cubic spline interpolation is used to estimate the past location and the mean movement value of the history information is used to predict the future location of moving objects. Finally, from the location estimation experimentation of using virtual trajectory and location sample, we proved that the proposed cubic spline function has less error than the linear function.

데이타베이스를 이용하여 연속적인 이동 객체를 관리할 경우 매 시간마다 변경된 모든 위치 정보를 저장하는 것은 불가능하다. 그러므로, 일정한 비율의 시간 주기를 결정한 후 매 주기마다 이동 객체의 위치 정보를 이산적으로 저장하게 된다. 그러나 연속적인 모델의 이동 객체를 이산적인 형태로 관리하게 될 경우, 데이타베이스에 저장되지 않은 불확실한 과거 및 미래의 위치 정보에 대한 질의에 적절히 응답할 수 없는 문제점이 발생된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 이 논문에서는 동일한 데이터베이스에 저장된 이력정보를 이용한 이동 객체 외 과거 및 미래의 위치 추정 방법과 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 때 3차 스플라인 보간법을 적용하여 이동 객체의 과거 위치를 추정하고, 이력정보의 평균 이동 값을 구하여 미래의 위치를 추정한다. 결국, 가상 이동경로 및 위치 샘플을 이용한 위치 추정 실험을 통해 제안한 3차 스플라인 함수가 선형 함수보다 더 적은 오차를 발생시킴을 보였다.
