Abstract: Abnormal-trajectory detection can be used to detect fraudulent behavior of taxi drivers transporting passengers. Aiming at the problem that existing methods do not fully consider abnormal fragments of trajectories, this paper proposes an abnormal-trajectory detection method based on sub-trajectory classification and outlier-factor acquisition, which effectively detects abnormal sub-trajectories and further detects abnormal trajectories. First, each trajectory is reconstructed using the turning angles and is divided into multiple sub-trajectories according to the turning angle threshold and trajectory point original acceleration. The sub-trajectories are then classified according to the extracted directional features. Finally, the multivariate distances between angular adjacent segments are calculated to obtain the outlier factor, and abnormal sub-trajectories are detected. The sum of the lengths of the abnormal sub-trajectories is used to calculate the outlier score and identify abnormal trajectories. Based on experimental results using real trajectory datasets, it has been found that the proposed method performs better at detecting abnormal trajectories than other similar methods.
