Abstract

Recently, lots of researchers are attracted to constructing information system for efficient taxi business. In general, there are three types of methods in order to catch a passenger for a taxi driver: 'waiting', 'cruising', and 'wireless/order'. Conventional systems decline to support 'wireless/order' method, and it is not sufficient to support 'waiting' and/or 'cruising' one. Therefore, in the present paper, we try to support 'waiting' and 'cruising' based on mining of occupied taxi data and try to catch a passenger more efficiently. According to the result of evaluation experiment, our proposition is effective.
