Abstract :
This paper presents a novel problem of route recommendation which guides the user through a series of locations. The recommendation is made by matching the user´s current route with the set of popular route patterns. Sequential pattern mining methods are used to extract the popular route patterns from a large set of historical route records from previous users. An application with real requirements - the Bar Tour Guide - is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
