METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING DUPLICATE TRAVEL PATH INFORMATION

摘要

Methods and systems for detecting a likelihood that a travel path is a correct travel path of a user using possible duplicate travel path information. A set of travel paths comprising at least two travel paths is obtained. Any paths that break up more than one reservation are removed. Each travel path is broken into at least one leg. Each leg in each travel path is compared to each leg in every other travel path to determine whether any travel paths are duplicates. A likelihood that each of the at least two travel paths is the correct travel path is determined using information about whether any of the at least two travel paths are duplicates.

1. A method for detecting a likelihood that a travel path is a correct travel path of a user, comprising:
obtaining a set of travel paths comprising at least two travel paths from a travel path database in communication with at least one processor; at the at least one processor, breaking each travel path into at least one leg; at the at least one processor, comparing each leg in each travel path to each leg in every other travel path in the set of travel paths to determine whether any travel paths are possible duplicates, wherein determining whether any travel paths are possible duplicates further comprises constructing at least one similar leg graph where nodes of the leg graph represent origins and destinations of legs; and at the at least one processor, determining a likelihood that each of the at least two travel paths is the correct travel path using information about whether any of the at least two travel paths are possible duplicates.
