Abstract
Described is a computer-implemented method which comprises receiving a plurality of images captured by at least one user device, wherein each image is associated with one of a corresponding plurality of geographic locations; determining a path between the plurality of geographic locations; determining a confidence indicator representative of whether the determined path corresponds to a demarked path, wherein determining the confidence indicator comprises determining a time of capture of each of the plurality of images; identifying the path as corresponding to a demarked route, based on the confidence indicator; and marking the plurality of images for display as a demarked route.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving a sequence of data captured by at least one user device, wherein each data entry in the sequence of data is associated with one of a corresponding plurality of geographic locations and a time of capture;
- determining a path between the plurality of geographic locations;
- determining, by executing a model, a confidence value based on how similar the sequence of data is to sequences that have already been classified;
- identifying the path as corresponding to a demarked route based on the confidence value;
- and
- marking the sequence of data as a demarked route.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- receive a sequence of data captured by at least one user device, wherein each data entry in the sequence of data is associated with one of a corresponding plurality of geographic locations and a time of capture;
- determine a path between the plurality of geographic locations;
- determine, by executing a model, a confidence value based on how similar the sequence of data is to sequences that have already been classified;
- identify the path as corresponding to a demarked route based on the confidence value;
- and
- mark the sequence of data for display as a demarked route.
A system, comprising:
- one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to:
- receive a sequence of data captured by at least one user device, wherein each data entry in the sequence of data is associated with one of a corresponding plurality of geographic locations and a time of capture;
- determine a path between the plurality of geographic locations;
- determine, by executing a model, a confidence value based on how similar the sequence of data is to sequences that have already been classified;
- identify the path as corresponding to a demarked route based on the confidence value;
- and
- mark the sequence of data for display as a demarked route.
