Efficient Route Estimation Method Using Data Compression for Sports Climbing

摘要

In this paper, we present a new route estimation method for sports climbing using an efficient data compression algorithm. The amount of route information regarding the sports climbing can increase dramatically at the number of trials and climbs are increase. Also, various compressionalgorithms have been proposed to overcome the problem. There are two methods of compression: loss compression method and lossless compression method. The Lempel-Ziv algorithm is the most commonly used lossless compress method. We propose a route estimation system with route data compressionusing Lempel-Ziv algorithm. The optimal route is estimated from the stored route data that is compressed by the Lempel-Ziv algorithm. Also, the optimal route can be used for the recommended actual rock climbing path.
