A Review on String Queries on Road Networks  
  Authors : Sherlin Susan George ; Remya R.

 

Query processing on road networks has many applications. For solving the spatial range queries the baseline solution is based on the Dijkstra’s algorithm. The earlier works provide efficient methods for exact keyword search only. But the RSASSOL algorithm returns the best objects that approximately match both the spatial predicate and string predicate. The OPRN algorithm retrieves points that have shortest distance to the query point and have textual similarity to the query keywords. Several string similarity functions are used here. The unnecessary points are pruned away in each stage. The results of extensive experiments show that this algorithm yields a flexible framework for the efficient processing of range queries.

Approximate String Search

This work presents a comprehensive study for spatial approximate string queries in road networks. We use the edit distance, cosine similarity as the similarity measurement for the string predicate and focus on the range queries as the spatial predicate. .Given a query, the Dijikstras, RSASSOL, OPRN algorithms on road network returns the best objects with shortest path to the query location and textual relevance to the query keyword.
