Abstract

Anomaly detection of trajectory data is important and challenging in many real applications. Many anomalous trajectory detection algorithms have been developed, however most of them cannot well handle the complex trajectories with varying local densities. Additionally, trajectory similarity measure is usually difficult for complex trajectory data. In this paper, to address these two issues, we develop a novel anomalous trajectory detection technique with two important points. First we propose a new abnormal score, Global-Local Anomaly Score (GLAS), to sensitively quantify the abnormal degree of trajectories with varying local densities. Second an effective and fast measure, Extended Power enhanced Euclidean Distance (EPED), is designed to calculate the trajectory similarity. The proposed technique is evaluated on both synthetic and real-world trajectory data, showing that the new anomaly detector outperforms both classic and state-of-the-art methods.
