Paper Abstract:
|
The aim of our project is to develop a route planning method that can provide each user with an appropriate route, taking
into consideration the walkability, safety, and pleasantness peculiar to the elderly. To achieve this goal, we constructed a
quantitative model that expresses the relationship between the attributes of elderly users and their preference for route
selection and proposed a method of individual adaptation of the model using post-walking preference evaluations of route
factors. We used "acceptable detour time" to quantify user preferences. A paper survey and a walking experiment were
conducted to examine the feasibility of the proposed method. It is confirmed that the targeted user attributes are useful in
estimating the preferences of the elderly for the routes. In some situations, we were able to identify improvements in the
participants' evaluation of the routes. The result indicates the feasibility of the user adaptation method. By adjusting the
update parameters and using more data, it is expected to plan routes that are adapted to individuals with high accuracy. |
