Abstract

In this paper, we study the multi-constrained optimized path selection based spatial pattern matching in Location-Based Social Network (MCOPS-SPM). Given a set D including spatial objects (each with a social identity and a social reputation) and social relationships (e.g., trust degree, social intimacy) between them. We aim at finding all connections (paths) of objects from D that match a user-specified multi-constraints spatial pattern P. A pattern P is a complex network where vertices represent spatial objects, and edges denote social relationships between them. The MCOPS-SPM query returns all the instances that satisfy P. Answering such queries is computationally intractable, and we propose algorithms to solve the multi-constrained optimized path matching problem and guide the join order of the paths in the query results. An extensive empirical study over real-world datasets has demonstrated the effectiveness and efficiency of our approach.
