The research on spatio-temporal data model and related data mining

In this paper we present a moving spatio-temporal data model based on the spatio-temporal data types, utilizing the benefits of object-relational database systems. In particular, we emphasize on the aspect of data mining in such a data model. The task of spatio-temporal data mining, such as a series of spatio-temporal rules and similar trajectories analysis, are discussed. We also discuss some techniques that can be adopted to improve the performance of spatio-temporal data mining.
