Enormous quantities of trajectory data are collected from many sources, as GPS devices and mobile phones, as sequences of points. These data can be used in many application domains such as traffic management, urban planing, tourism, and bird migration. However, in most applications a higher level of abstraction should be used instead of sample points. In this paper we present an extension of th...

Healthcare is indeed a considerable pointer for the development of society. Health does not only mean as dearth of disease but also capability to apprehend one’s potential. In reality, there is a big gap between the rural and urban health service facility and accessibility. This paper identifies some of the problems in Indian healthcare and attempts to provide a solution by exploring the capabi...

1 Mining public transportation networks is a growing and explosive challenge due to the increasing number of information available. In highly populated urban zones, the vehicles can often fail the schedule. Such fails cause headway deviations (HD) between high-frequency bus pairs. In this paper, we propose to identify systematic HD which usually provokes the phenomenon known as Bus Bunching (BB...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are a rapidly emerging technology with a great potential in many ubiquitous applications. Although these sensors can be inexpensive, they are often relatively unreliable when deployed in harsh environments characterized by a vast amount of noisy and uncertain data, such as urban traffic control, earthquake zones, and battlefields. The data gathered by distributed...

Quantitative studies on how mining activities shape the evolution of regional landscape patterns can contribute to scientific understanding cities develop. Based theories life cycle and ecology, this paper takes Jixi, a typical Chinese city, as case study analyze pattern features at different city development stages. First, we constructed index system. Second, optimal granularity for analysis w...

In highly populated urban zones, it is common to notice headway deviations (HD) between pairs of buses. When these events occur in a bus stop, they often cause bus bunching (BB) in the following bus stops. Several proposals have been suggested to mitigate this problem. In this paper, we propose to find BBS (Bunching Black Spots) – sequences of bus stops where systematic HD events cause the form...
