Abstract

With the popularity of smartphone, user's location information is of great interest as mobile apps based on the location information are increasing. In this paper, we are interested in analyzing user's speed data based on the location information. It is not uncommon to observe locations with great measurement errors, removing them is necessary. The distribution of speed can be considered as a mixture model in accordance with transportation means. We identify a tail part as a component of a mixture model and fit a simple parametric model to the tail part of the speed distribution.

스마트폰의 대중화로 이용자의 위치정보를 이용한 모바일 앱이 늘어나면서 위치정보에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 위치정보를 이용한 사용자의 이동속도를 나타내는 간단한 분포함수를 찾고자 한다. 스마트폰에서 제공하는 위치정보는 경우에 따라 큰 오차가 발생할 수 있기 때문에 이를 제거하는 과정이 필요하다. 또한 이동속도 분포의 경우 교통수단에 따라 여러 가지 다른 분포들의 혼합분포로 표현할 수 있다. 속도의 분포함수를 찾기 위하여 혼합분포를 이용하여 꼬리부분에 해당하는 분포를 찾고 이부분을 설명할 수 있는 모수 분포모형을 찾는다.
