RFID Based Airport Baggage Handling
a
This work is supported by the BagTrack project funded by the
Danish National Advanced Technology Foundation under grant no.
010-2011-1.
Useful for finding overloaded locations
Tracking records do not provide when did an object
enter and exit a location.
Need to map the tracking records before hotspot query
More topological detail need to be captured.
Use eq (1) (2), (3) and node type of a location for
calculating the appropriate time
start
and time
end
from tracking record.
Node types:
Type 1 node
No loop, No reader in dest.
Type 2 node
Example: Sorter-2
Type 3 node
Example: Sorter-1
Type 4 node
(Loop, reader at the destination)
Type 5 node
(Example: Screening belt)

Other Analytics
Extract interesting features from the tracking data
Apply different data mining algorithms to find
relations among the features that are highly related
for baggage mishandling
Due to very low ratio of mishandling, the data sets
should be re-sampled for learning.
