Due to the advent of new mobile devices and tracking sensors in recent years, huge amounts of data are being produced every day. Therefore, novel methodologies need to emerge that dive through this vast sea of information and generate insights and meaningful information. To this end, researchers have developed several trajectory classification algorithms over the years that are able to annotate tracking data. Similarly, in this research, a novel methodology is presented that exploits image representations of trajectories, called TraClets, in order to classify trajectories in an intuitive humans way, through computer vision techniques. Several real-world datasets are used to evaluate the proposed approach and compare its classification performance to other state-of-the-art trajectory classification algorithms. Experimental results demonstrate that TraClets achieves a classification performance that is comparable to, or in most cases, better than the state-of-the-art, acting as a universal, high-accuracy approach for trajectory classification.
