摘要与影响
Digital maps play a crucial role in various applications such as navigation, fleet management, and ride-sharing, necessitating their accuracy and currency, which require timely updates. While the majority of geospatial databases (GDBs) provide high-quality information, their data is (i) limited to specific regions and/or (ii) missing some entities, even in their covered areas. Map conflation is the process of augmentation of a GDB using another GDB to conflate missing spatial features. Existing map conflation methods suffer from two main limitations: (1) They are designed for the conflation of linear objects (e.g., road networks) and cannot simply be extended to non-linear objects, thus missing information about most entities in the map. (2) They are heuristic algorithmic approaches that are based on pre-defined rules, unable to learn entities matching in a data-driven manner. To address these limitations, we design KRAFT, a learning based approach consisting of three parts: (1) Knowledge Graph Construction - where each GDB is represented by a knowledge graph, (2) Map Matching - where we use a knowledge graph alignment method as well as a geospatial feature encoder to match entities in obtained knowledge graphs, and (3) Map Merging - where we merge matched entities in the previous modules in a consistent manner, using a mixed integer linear programming formulation that fully merges the GDBs without adding any inconsistencies. Our experimental evaluation shows that not only does KRAFT achieve outstanding performance compared to state-of-the-art and baseline methods in map conflation tasks, but each of its modules (e.g., Map Matching and Map Merging) also separately outperforms traditional matching and merging methods.
