Locality-Constrained Sparse Reconstruction for Trajectory Classification

Abstract

Trajectory classification has been extensively investigated in recent years, however, problems remain when processing incomplete trajectories of noises and local variations. In this paper, we propose a Locality-constrained Sparse Reconstruction (LSR) approach that explores both sparsity and local adaptability for robust trajectory classification. A trajectory dictionary with locality constrains is constructed with track lets partitioned from collected trajectories by control points of cubic B-spline curves. On the dictionary, the proposed LSR is used to calculate a discriminate code matrix. Then, a loss weighted decoding strategy is employed to perform multi-class trajectory classification. In addition, the approach can be used for anomalous trajectory detection with a thresholding strategy. Experiments on two datasets show that the results of the LSR approach improve the state of the art.
