Title
On Efficient Spatial Keyword Querying with Semantics.
Abstract
The fast development of GPS equipped devices has aroused widespread use of spatial keyword querying in location based services nowadays. Existing spatial keyword indexing and querying methodologies mainly focus on the spatial and textual similarities, while leaving the semantic understanding of keywords in spatial web objects and queries to be ignored. To address this issue, this paper studies the problem of semantic based spatial keyword querying. It seeks to return the k objects most similar to the query, subject to not only their spatial and textual properties, but also the coherence of their semantic meanings. To achieve that, we propose a novel indexing structure called NIQ-tree, which integrates spatial, textual and semantic information in a hierarchical manner, so as to prune the search space effectively in query processing. Extensive experiments are carried out to evaluate and compare it with other two baseline algorithms.
